Abstract

The study investigates the moderating effect of relational identification and organisation-based self-esteem (OBSE) on the relationship between meaningful work and prudence, as well as meaningful work and civic virtue behaviour, in the context of blue-collar employees working in the Indian aeronautical manufacturing sector (IAMS). Survey data collected from 312 blue-collar employees showed that meaningful work has a positive influence on prudence as well as civic virtue behavior only at high levels of relational identification and OBSE. These relationships were insignificant at the lower level of the moderators. The findings of the study hold significant research, practice, and societal implications, because meaningful work in the context of blue-collar employees of the aeronautical industry has not been studied before, though this industry has high growth potential.
