Abstract
PurposeThis piece of research attempts to find out the association between work-related well-being (WWB), benefits of scheme (BoS) and subjective well-being (SWB). The study was conducted on handloom weavers in Uttar Pradesh (UP), India.Design/methodology/approachThe association among the variables was studied using structural equation modeling on Amos 22. The tripartite relationship of WWB, BoS and SWB was explored using causal steps approach. Bootstrapping of a sample size of 2,000 was performed. A cross-sectional survey was conducted on 403 weavers, and convenient sampling was done.FindingsA direct link was found by the structural equation modeling (SEM) results between benefits of schemeBoS and SWB, which was reflected by a value of rˆ2 (0.33) at significance level p < 0.001. The standardized indirect effect of BoS on SWB was found to be 0.158 (p < 0.001). In the presence of WWB, the relationship between BoS and SWB (direct effect) stands significant, thus making this a case of partial mediation. The value of Rˆ2 is increased to 48.1% in presence of a mediating variable.Research limitations/implicationsThe study indicated the importance of WWB and how it can enhance SWB.Originality/valueThe relationship between SWB, WWB and policy benefits has still not been explored.
