“…Wu et al [ 21 ] defined well-being as the degree that an individual and/or the majority of employees perceive(s) the well-being of their work, where the degree of well-being is related to salary, raises, work location, work time, type of work, promotion opportunities, interpersonal relationships, and management. Ilies et al [ 22 ] suggested that well-being is determined by employees’ perceived work devotion and rewards, as employees compare their results with those of other members in the same organization; a more equal result will yield stronger feelings of well-being.…”

Due to their high expectations, teachers often hide their real emotions and play a role that conforms to public expectations of educational work. Special education teachers face a group of students with physical and mental disabilities who have high heterogeneity and require individualized services every day. Using social support theory, this study discusses special education teachers’ emotional labor and well-being. A total of 439 special education teachers in China participated in this study. We collected data at two different time-points and verified the research hypotheses with hierarchical regression and structural equation modeling analysis. The research findings show the mediating role of emotional labor in social support and well-being. It is, therefore, suggested that schools should pay more attention to special education teachers’ mental health and provide them with regular guidance and support.

“…Experiencing adverse, resource-depleting work situations can frustrate employees. It undermines the quality of their personal well-being, their professional functioning, and even their future career prospects (Ilies et al, 2020;Liao et al, 2019). In many cases, this sort of adversity results from the organizational context itself; when they get to work, employees might confront dysfunctional organizational politics (Jam et al, 2017), bullying behaviors by coworkers (Magee et al, 2017), or excessive workloads (Avery et al, 2010), for example.…”

This study investigates a pressing topic, related to the connection between employees’ perceptions that the COVID-19 pandemic represents a pertinent threat for their organization on one hand, and their exhibited creativity, a critical behavior through which they can change and improve the organizational status quo, on the other. This connection may depend on their work-related task conflict, or the extent to which they reach out to colleagues to discuss different perspectives on work-related issues, as well as their collectivistic orientation. Data were gathered from employees working in the real estate sector. The results inform organizational practitioners that they should leverage productive task conflict to channel work-related hardships, such as those created by the coronavirus pandemic, into creative work outcomes. This beneficial process may be particularly effective for firms that employ people who embrace collectivistic norms, so they prioritize the well-being of others.

“…Work resources are amongst key aspects that have an impact on employee health (Ilies et al, 2020). The empirical literature defined work resources as objects, things and conditions that individuals consider to be of material value (Hobfoll, 1989(Hobfoll, , 2002.…”

Orientation: There is a rise in health-related challenges within the confines of the organisation. Strategies are needed not just from a human resources practitioner but also a theoretical basis in finding solutions to such challenges.Research purpose: Firstly, to determine the effects that work resources have on employee health and its two facets of physical and mental health. Secondly, to determine if career adaptability moderates the relationship between work resources and employee health.Motivation for the study: Studies exist in the literature that focus on the intersection of individual and organisational factors on health constructs such as mental health. Further, such studies continue to be an issue of inquiry especially within the public service professions such as teaching.Research approach/design and method: A quantitative research approach utilising a survey data collection technique was utilised. Simple linear regression and a hierarchical regression were performed to analyse the data.Main findings: Work resources do predict employee mental and physical health. Further, career adaptability does not moderate the relationship between work resources and employee health among teachers.Practical/managerial implications: Based on the findings, recommendations are made that assist not just teachers but also those engaged in creating a context in which teachers can thrive from a management perspective.Contribution/value-add: The findings help us focus on the notion that in rural high schools of South Africa, a supportive work environment for assisting teachers to utilise work resources for organisational functioning, in a manner that is friendly to their mental and physical health is needed.
