Abstract

This study explores the impact of workplace loneliness on the psychological well-being of Generation Z and Millennial employees in the Greater Jakarta area, considering the role of perceived organisational support and resilience as moderating variables. Using a cross-sectional survey approach with 334 respondents, this study found that loneliness at work negatively affects psychological well-being. In contrast, POS and resilience have a significant positive influence. Resilience was also shown to moderate the relationship between workplace loneliness and psychological well-being, strengthening individuals' ability to deal with loneliness constructively. These results emphasise the importance of developing organisational policies that support employees' social connectedness and resilience to improve psychological well-being and productivity.

Bahasa Abstract

Penelitian ini mengeksplorasi dampak kesepian di tempat kerja (workplace loneliness) terhadap kesejahteraan psikologis (psychological well-being) karyawan Generasi Z dan Milenial di wilayah Jabodetabek, dengan mempertimbangkan peran dukungan organisasi yang dirasakan (Perceived Organizational Support) dan resiliensi sebagai variabel moderasi. Menggunakan pendekatan survei cross-sectional dengan 334 responden, penelitian ini menemukan bahwa kesepian di tempat kerja berpengaruh negatif terhadap kesejahteraan psikologis. Sebaliknya, POS dan resiliensi memiliki pengaruh positif yang signifikan. Resiliensi juga terbukti memoderasi hubungan antara kesepian di tempat kerja dan kesejahteraan psikologis, memperkuat kemampuan individu untuk menghadapi kesepian secara konstruktif. Hasil ini menekankan pentingnya pengembangan kebijakan organisasi yang mendukung keterhubungan sosial dan resiliensi karyawan untuk meningkatkan kesejahteraan psikologis dan produktivitas.
