Abstract

For the empirical analysis in this study, 335 cabin crews from large airline companies and budget airlines were interviewed using self-reporting questionnaires. The data was analyzed using the SPSS 23.0 and AMOS 23.0. First, of the organizational culture types, the relationship-oriented culture, hierarchy-oriented culture, and task-oriented culture were found to have negative impacts on job stress. Second, the innovation-oriented organizational culture, relationship-oriented culture, and hierarchy-oriented culture were found to have positive impacts on empowerment. Third, empowerment was found to have a negative impact on job stress. Fourth, as for the mediating effect of empowerment, the innovation-oriented culture, relationship-oriented culture, hierarchy-oriented culture, and task-oriented culture were verified to be all significantly mediated by empowerment in their relationship with job stress. As a result, it was shown that cabin crews of airline companies found their work more fun, interesting, and valuable in an organizational structure that was more oriented toward flexibility, rather than the hierarchical, task-oriented cultures that are more focused on control and order. It was also found that empowerment was a mediating factor in the relationship between organizational culture and job stress.

본 연구의 목적은 캐빈승무원이 지각한 조직문화 유형, 임파워먼트와 직무스트레스에 대하여 실증적으로 분석하여, 항공사 산업의 인적관리를 위한 서비스 매뉴얼을 제작하고 관리하는 실무자들에게 적절한 규정을 설계하기 위한 기초자료를 제공하고자 한다. 본 연구의 실증분석을 위해 대형항공사 및 저가항공사에 근무 중인 캐빈승무원 335명을 대상으로 자기보고식 설문조사를 실시하였고, 자료 분석은 SPSS 23.0과 AMOS 23.0을 사용하였다. 첫째, 조직문화 유형 중 관계지향문화, 위계지향문화, 과업지향문화 유형이 직무스트레스에 부-)적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 혁신지향문화, 관계지향문화, 위계지향문화, 과업지향문화 유형 모두 임파워먼트에 정(+)적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 임파워먼트는 직무스트레스에 부(-)적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 넷째, 임파워먼트의 매개효과를 살펴보면, 혁신지향문화, 관계지향문화, 위계지향문화, 과업지향문화 유형과 직무스트레스의 관계에서 임파워먼트는 모두 유의한 매개효과가 있음을 검증하였다. 결과적으로 항공사 캐빈승무원은 항공사 캐빈승무원들은 통제나 질서를 강조하는 위계적인 조직문화, 업무지향적 조직문화보다는 융통성이나 유연성을 지향하는 조직구조에서 더욱 일이 즐겁고 재미있으며 가치 있게 인식하고 있다는 것을 알 수 있었으며, 조직문화와 직무스트레스의 관계에서 임파워먼트는 매개적 변수인 것을 확인하였다. 이러한 임파워먼트를 높이기 위한 방안과 지속적인 관리와 지원에 따른 시사점을 논의하였다.
