The present study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of job crafting training on job well-being and perceived job success. This was an experimental study utilizing a pretest-posttest design with control and experimental groups. The statistical population included all employees in the production and operations department of an industrial company in Shiraz, Iran. A sample of 40 employees was selected using convenience sampling and randomly assigned to two groups of 20 participants each. The measurement tools included the Job Well-Being Questionnaire (Heiniken, 1998) and the Perceived Job Success Questionnaire (Greiner, 2008), which were administered at pretest and posttest stages to both groups.
The experimental group participated in eight 90-minute weekly sessions of job crafting training over eight weeks. The training protocol was based on Wrzesniewski and Dutton’s (2001) job crafting framework and included practical exercises and discussions focused on task crafting, cognitive crafting, and relational crafting. Each session included theoretical input, group activities, and reflection tasks aimed at enhancing participants’ proactive behavior in reshaping their job roles. The control group received no intervention.
Data were analyzed using multivariate and univariate analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) in SPSS-24. The results showed that job crafting training significantly improved job well-being and perceived job success (P < 0.01). Based on these findings, it is recommended that organizations implement job crafting training programs to enhance employee well-being and job success. |
