Abstract
Aim
This study aimed to investigate the relationship between mindfulness among employees and their person-organisation fit, incorporating self-compassion theory and job embeddedness theory. Additionally, the study explores the mediating role of community fit and the moderating impact of workplace isolation on this relationship.
Background
In today's organizational landscape, mindfulness practices are prevalent. Despite evidence of positive outcomes for individual employees, the linkage between mindfulness and Person-Organisation fit (P-O fit) remains underexplored. This study addresses this gap, examining the intricate relationships among mindfulness, community fit, isolation, and P-O fit.
Methods
In this study, we have looked at the mediating effect of community fit between mindfulness and person-organisation fit, and the moderating role of isolation among the same using multiple regression and PROCESS macro. The data were collected from 153 Indian employees working in manufacturing industries in various roles.
Results
Findings have revealed a positive association between mindfulness and person-organisation fit. Community fit has been found to emerge as a significant mediator, and the study has identified the moderating effect of workplace isolation on the established connection between mindfulness and P-O fit.
Conclusion
This research study enriches the literature on mindfulness and P-O fit, emphasizing practical implications for human resource practitioners to use mindfulness as an effective HRM intervention, which can foster positive organizational outcomes.
Keywords: Mindfulness, Person-organisation fit (P-O fit), Isolation, Community fit, Job embeddedness theory, HRM interventions.
