PublicationRelationships between sense of purpose, social connection, self-esteem and meaningful work(AIP Publishing, 2024-06-07)Researchers and practitioners have become more interested in meaningful work (MW) in recent years as a result of growing dissatisfaction with organisational demands, rising concerns about job quality, and a growing emphasis on work as a setting for people to discover meaning and purpose. After reviewing past research, this study concluded that sense of purpose, social connection and self-esteem are the three most crucial elements in determining meaningful employment. When they have purposes, their work is meaningful, giving their daily life direction and intentionality. People will feel that their lives are significant if they have goals. A person's labour is objectively significant if it produces something of lasting worth and has a genuine purpose for others. Being a part of something bigger than oneself is necessary for having a purpose. Positive correlations exist between social support and psychological demands at work, such as job engagement. Additionally, prosocial behaviours like lending a hand to others and appreciating the fruits of one's labour have been linked to meaningful employment. Conversely, underemployed people have fewer interactions with their coworkers.
