Job crafting and job satisfaction in a sample of Italian teachers: the mediating role of Perceived Organizational Support

We aimed to explore the mediating role of perceived organizational support(POS) on the relationship between job crafting and job satisfaction, which is considered as an important outcome for the development of well-being at work. Participants were 263 teachers from public schools in the South of Italy. Results indicated that POS fully mediated the relationship between job crafting and job satisfaction. Implications for management educational practice and limitations of the study are discussed.
