Gig workers commonly face challenges that differ in nature or intensity from those experienced by traditional organizational workers. To better understand and support gig workers, we sought to develop a measure reliably validly assesses these challenges. We first define work specify its core characteristics. then provide an integrated conceptual framework for of six faced workers—viability, organizational, identity, relational, emotional, career-path uncertainty. present five studies: item...
Abstract The link between work injuries and mental health challenges significantly impacts individuals, organizations, society. However, an integrated understanding of their relationship is lacking due to fragmented research across various disciplines. Drawing from uncertainty in illness theory, our comprehensive meta‐analysis (147 samples, N = 1,457,562) clarifies the bidirectional challenges. We estimate average strength association, compare temporal ordering (work preceding challenges,...
In this paper, we conceptualize and integrate a measure of political knowledge into the broader literatures on behaviour, proactivity, followership. Political refers to an individual's perceived understanding relationships, demands, resources, preferences influential target, such as their leader. We examine in follower–leader context with two studies employees ( N s = 301 & 492) pairs 187 130 dyads). Findings generally support convergent discriminant validity our measure. addition, find...

The study investigates the relationship between work-related injuries, psychological distress, and influence of perceived job control on healthcare workers, using Bakker Demerouti's (2007) demands-resources model as theoretical grounding.
This paper outlines the theoretical and empirical development of follower political knowledge, which refers to a subordinate’s collection potentially strategic or sensitive information about his her superior. Follower knowledge is natural extension skill will, enriches our conceptualization behavior in workplace. In this paper, we develop underpinnings knowledge. Then, four interlocking studies, validate scale measure We examine correlates testing its relationship with predictors including...
Gig workers face a number of challenges that differ in nature or intensity from those experienced by traditional organizational workers. We developed and tested measure six commonly faced independent workers—viability, organizational, identity, relational, emotional, career-path uncertainty—in three samples platform-based workers, including Mechanical Turk highly skilled scientists. Initial evidence for the measure’s validity included its convergent discriminant relation to measures...
