This study aims to investigate a model for reducing workplace deviance from employees' perspectives. Specifically, it examines the relationship between workplace spirituality and workplace deviance through the improvement of organizational commitment. Through the quantitative approach, questionnaires were distributed to 400 civil servants in the various government agencies in Indonesia. Structural Equation Model with Analysis of Moment Structures (SEM-AMOS) was used to analyze the data and test the hypotheses. The results reveal that workplace spirituality has no significant negative effect directly on workplace deviance, but it has a significantly positive effect on organizational commitment. Organizational commitment also has a significant negative effect on workplace deviance. The non-significance of workplace spirituality's direct effect on workplace deviance proves that there is a full mediation effect of organizational commitment. It implies that, to reduce workplace deviance, merely workplace spirituality is not adequate, but it should enhance organizational commitment. The findings can add an understanding of the empirical evidence related to the relationship between workplace spirituality, organizational commitment, and workplace deviance. Practically, the top decision-makers in civil servant institutions need to consider the right strategies, policies, and real efforts to carry out workplace spirituality practices and organizational commitment by designing a control system.

본 연구의 목적은 상사의 비인격적 감독이 부하들의 조직동일시와 조직일탈행동에 미치는 영향을 연구하는 데 있다. 구체적으로, 본 연구는 상사의 비인격적 감독과 부하들의 조직동일시 및 조직일탈행동 간의 관계에서 부하들의 직무만족이 매개역할을 하는지를 분석하는 것이다. 국내의 다양한 기업들에 종사하는 종업원들로부터 수집한 설문자료(n=281)를 이용하여 본 연구의 가설들을 구조방정식모형으로 검증하였다. 본 연구결과에 의하면, 상사의 비인격적 감독이 부하들의 직무만족에 부(-)적인 관계가 있고 결과적으로 조직동일시에 영향을 주는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 그리고 상사의 비인격적 감독은 직무만족을 매개로하여 간접적으로 조직일탈행동에 정(+)적으로 영향을 미칠 뿐만 아니라 직접적으로 조직일탈행동에도 영향을 준다는 것이 검증되었다. 특히 본 연구는 직무만족이 상사의 비인격적 감독과 부하들의 조직동일시 및 조직일탈행동 간의 관계에서 유의미한 매개역할을 한다는 것을 검증하였다.

Background: Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are a common problem among carpet weavers. This study was undertaken to introduce affecting personal and occupational factors in developing the number of MSDs among carpet weavers. Methods: A cross-sectional study was performed among 862 weavers in seven towns with regard to workhouse location in urban or rural regions. Data were collected by using questionnaires that contain personal, workplace, and information tools and the modified Nordic MSDs questionnaire. Statistical analysis was performed by applying Poisson and negative binomial mixed models using a full Bayesian hierarchical approach. The deviance information criterion was used for comparison between models and model selection. Results: The majority of weavers (72%) were female and carpet weaving was the main job of 85.2% of workers. The negative binomial mixed model with lowest deviance information criterion was selected as the best model. The criteria showed the convergence of chains. Based on 95% Bayesian credible interval, the main job and weaving type variables statistically affected the number of MSDs, but variables age, sex, weaving comb, work experience, and carpet weaving looms were not significant. Conclusion: According to the results of this study, it can be concluded that occupational factors are associated with the number of MSDs developing among carpet weavers. Thus, using standard tools and decreasing hours of work per day can reduce frequency of MSDs among carpet weavers.
