| dc.description.abstract | Organizations are continually confronted with automation, digital
platforms, and other innovations that are changing the fundamental nature of
work. Therefore, understanding what impact technology has on employees is
crucial. This study investigates the role technology-assisted supplemental work,
abbreviated to TASW, has on the relationships between job demands and burnout,
and job resources and work engagement. This paper follows the spirit of previous
research in the field; with four questionnaires used to measure job demands and
resources, burnout, work engagement and TASW.
We distributed one web-based questionnaire to voluntary participants on
social media by email, and distribution to friends and family. Based on the valid
responses obtained (n = 423), multiple regression analyses were conducted. We
found positive relationships between job demands and burnout, and job resources
and work engagement. Further, negative relationship between job demands and
work engagement, and job resources and burnout were found. We also found a
positive relationship between TASW and burnout. The moderating role of TASW
between the different independent variables and dependent variables was nonexistent.
In light of these findings we discuss theoretical contributions, limitations,
directions for future research and implication for practice. | nb_NO |
