Summary: | To examine the role of employee, supervisor, and organizational support in the prediction of employee participation in wellness programs.
Data were collected at two-time points (T1 and T2) from 194 Australian employees.
Hierarchical binary logistic regressions revealed that higher levels of employee and supervisor support for wellness at T1 each predicted T2 participation, and high supervisor support was more effective when organizational support was high and did not compensate for when organizational support was low. Employees with higher perceptions of T1 poor general health had a lower likelihood of T2 participation, and higher levels of T1 supervisor support was a further deterrent to participation.
Different sources of support for wellness predict employee attendance at wellness programs and it is important to ensure that supervisor and organizational support are aligned. |
