Abstract: | The study contributes to the work values literature as well as to the knowledge base of meaning of working in Asian economies.
It represents the results of an empirical study of Korean mid-level employees in diverse industries, investigating the effects
of different understandings of work and non-work dimensions on job satisfaction, career satisfaction, and organizational commitment.
With a sample size of some 420 responses from 16 different companies, age differences were found for overall meaning of work
and also for the effects of importance of working for global organizational commitment. Non-work related dimensions appeared
unrelated to work-related outcome variables. We conclude that to a limited degree, age related differentiation exist in relation
to work meanings and separation of work and non-work domains for work-related effects. The implications for theory and practice
of this research are also discussed. |
