As time goes by, managers realize that exceptional employees are the crucial factors which affect the success or failure of companies. The attitude and feelings of employees are affected by Job Characteristics, and it will further affect the Job Involvement of employees. When employees go into the works which are provided with good job characteristics, managers still need considering the differences between employees. According to some researches, Self-Esteem play an important role in many aspects of employees¡¦ life, so it can be used to measuring the differences between employees.
The purposes of the study are to explore the relationship between job characteristics and job involvement, then add self-esteem as a moderator variable to explore the relationship among these variables and make further suggestions to modern companies for arranging job duties and selecting employees.
The objects of the study were the Taiwan workers of a case company. The study adopted a convenience sampling method. 200 questionnaires were distributed and resulted in 177 valid responses, comprising the effective return rate of 88.5%.
The software SPSS was used for correlation analysis, regression analysis and T test to test the hypothesis.
The findings show that there is a significant positive correlation between job characteristics and job involvement, then add self-esteem as a moderator variable to find that there is still a significant positive correlation between job characteristics and job involvement in those workers who are in high level of self-esteem ; on the other hand, there isn¡¦t a positive relationship between job identity, job feedback and job involvement in those workers who are in low level of self-esteem. But there is still a positive relationship between skill variety, job importance, job autonomy, and job involvement.
