In recent years there has been growing interest in the concept of Person-Environment¡]P-E¡^Fit. Under the umbrella term of P-E fit, researchers have distinguished between specific types of fit¡GPerson-Organization¡]P-O¡^Fit and Person-Job¡]P-J¡^Fit .
This study examines the employees¡¦ actual P-O fit and perceived P-J fit, and both types of fit as predictors of work passion, job satisfaction and turnover intention. The Q-sort approaches and the Organizational Culture Profile¡]OCP¡^adapted from Cable and Judge¡]1996¡^were used as the instrument for assessing Person-Organization fit. Furthermore, this paper examines the potential interaction between the P-O fit and the P-J fit. If such an interaction is significant , both types of fit can be a moderator for each other.
Survey data collected from 277 employees of Taiwan Power Company are analyzed. The results show that: ¡]1¡^the person-organization fit calculated by correlating OCP1¡]characteristics of firms¡^ and OCP2¡]individual preferences for the characteristics of firms¡^ ranged from ¡V1 to 1¡]the¡©correlation coefficient¡ªis between -1 and 1 as expected¡^. ¡]2¡^Both P-O fit and P-J fit have positive impact on work passion and job satisfaction, respectively.¡]3¡^Both P-O fit and P-J fit have negative impact on turnover intention.¡]4¡^No significant interaction was found between the two types of fit and they are weakly related¡]r=.043¡^
