Abstract:Researchers have provided evidence then when workers are given a say in shaping their work experiences or when workers proactively initiate the changes they make to their jobs, the resulting outcomes are beneficial to both the employees and the organization. In recent years, employees have come to question the meaningfulness of their work. The aim of this meta-analysis is to determine if the employees and the organization equally benefit from job crafting and idiosyncratic deals. In order to do so, a meta-analysis of the outcomes of job crafting and those of i-deals was conducted from 11 job crafting empirical studies and 14 i-deal studies. The results show that employees and employers equally benefit from granted i-deals. However when it comes to job crafting, the employee benefits as a result of task crafting is stronger that the organizational benefits. There is equal benefits for relational crafting and of job crafting in general.
