TI  - Reassessing Innovative Work Behaviors during COVID-19 Pandemic: The Impacts of Workplace Spirituality and Psychological Safety Perception
AB  - Recent literature has shown the contributions of positivity in organizations, but less is known about the impact of spirituality and safety feelings as an extension of positive psychology on individuals’ innovative work behaviors. Considering the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak, it is suggested that the conditions encouraging employees’ perceptions and attitudes as well as their innovative work behaviors (IWBs) have been changed. Based on the positive psychology approach, workplace spirituality and psychological safety are seen as important factors on employees’ IWBs. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the relationships among perceived workplace spirituality, psychological safety, and employees’ IWBs within the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. Employees working in different private sectors in Istanbul (N= 251) participated in the current research. The statistical analyses revealed that workplace spirituality contributed to employees’ innovative behaviors, and psychological safety fully mediated this relationship. Based on the findings, practical and conceptual implications of this study are discussed and future directions are presented.
