“…Caring climate influences withdrawal behaviours such as intent to leave (Shapira‐Lishchinsky & Even‐Zohar, ) or calling in sick (Peterson, ) that occur when employees feel that the organization cares nothing about their welfare. Studies of sports teams have shown that caring climates may enhance psychological well‐being among members (Fry et al ., ), encourage more involvement in sports, and keep more athletes from dropping out (Fry & Gano‐Overway, ).…”

In this study, we examine frontline employees in a multifoci approach for clarifying relationships between social stressors caused by supervisors, colleagues and customers, and turnover intentions, sick leave and service sabotage. The study also considers caring climates and service climates for moderating effects. Data were collected from 420 frontline employees and 30 supervisors in 30 hotels in the hospitality industry. Hierarchical linear model analysis confirmed that supervisor‐caused stressors were more strongly related to turnover intention; colleague‐caused stressors were more strongly related to sick leave; and customer‐caused stressors were more strongly related to service sabotage. In addition, caring climates moderated the relationships between supervisor‐ and customer‐caused stressors and turnover intentions. Service climates moderated the relationships between supervisor‐ and customer‐caused stressors and service sabotage. The findings corroborate the target similarity model. The implications of this study for research and practice are discussed. Practitioner points The study should help managers understand why employees display withdrawal or sabotage behaviours. Managers should examine social stressors precisely and carefully to find the best ways to decrease employees' negative behaviours. Establishing both caring climates and service climates in organizations will help prevent employees' turnover intention or service sabotage.

Aim To investigate the role of psychological empowerment as a mediator between authentic leadership and organisational citizenship behaviours (OCB), tardiness, absenteeism and intent to leave. Background Despite the extensive literature on predictors and outcomes of psychological empowerment, there is a lack of studies on the nursing profession using an integrative model, simultaneously focusing on the effects of authentic leadership and psychological empowerment on OCB, and time‐related misbehaviours. Method Data were collected from 172 nurses in 28 Israeli public hospitals from questionnaires, and tardiness and absenteeism records. We tested our model using structural equation modelling (SEM). Results Nurses’ perceptions of their head nurses as authentic leaders positively predicted psychological empowerment, while psychological empowerment positively predicted their OCB, tardiness and intent to leave the hospital. Psychological empowerment partially mediates the relationship between the nurses’ perceptions of their head nurses as authentic leaders and OCB, tardiness and intent to leave the hospital. Conclusions Nurses' psychological empowerment and their head nurses' authentic leadership may increase the nurses' OCB, while simultaneously holding opposing behaviours. Implications for Nursing Management Nursing management should use the study measures to evaluate factors that can affect their nurses' effectiveness, including developing training programs to increase nurses' OCB.

“…In new theoretical formulations, the focus in two components of independence and instrumental tendencies is on oneself instead of others, and reliance is on personal beliefs instead of on group values, thus, they are considered among components of tendency toward personal ethics (Grant and Patil, 2012). In terms of nature, each one of the components of organizational ethical climate has specific behavioral, cognitive, and emotional outcomes for employees (Woodbine, 2006;Shapira-Lishchinsky and Even-Zohar, 2011;Ünal, 2012;Zehir et al, 2012;Wang and Hsieh, 2012). The two important outcomes of components of organizational ethical climate, focused on in this study, are organizational empathy and civic virtue.…”
