非体面工作对其从业者工作意义感的影响机制
The effects of dirty work on its practitioners' work meaningfulness
摘要
Abstract
Dirty work refers to occupations or job tasks that are physically,socially or morally tainted,and thus are perceived by its practitioners as disgusting and degrading.Dirty work practitioners' sense of meaning at work has always been a topic of interest for scholars.Existing research has primarily explored,from an individual or in-group perspective,how dirty work practitioners' work-group culture or occupational ideology,as well as their normalization strategies,influence the construction of the meaning of work.However,limited attention has been paid to the relational and symbiotic dimensions of meaning construction.Moreover,how the boundary conditions of social support that contributes to these processes remain largely under-explored.To bridge these research gaps,we adopt a social support perspective and draw upon the four-quadrant framework of meaning-making,which is characterized by the axes of"agency-communion"and"self-other",to propose a conceptual model that delineates both individual and interpersonal mechanisms through which dirty work practitioners construct meaning of their work.The anticipated contributions of this research lie in offering a more comprehensive understanding of how practitioners engaged in dirty work derive meaning from their work,thereby providing practical insights for enhancing dirty work employees' meaningful work experiences through the management of intrapersonal and relational factors.关键词
