Abstract

Amid the growing interest of researchers in unethical pro-organizational behavior in recent years, this study validated the effects of organizational identification on unethical pro-organizational behavior while also verifying the mediating effect of organizational commitment in the relationship between organizational identification and unethical pro-organizational behavior. Based on the theory of good deeds and literature review, the hypothesis was established and a survey was conducted on employees engaged in manufacturing in southern area company in Korea. Analysis shows that organizational identifications has a significant positive effect on organizational commitment, and that organizational commitment has a significant positive effect on unethical pro-organizational behavior. organizational commitment has also been shown to play a partial mediating role in the relationship between organizational identification and unethical pro-organizational behavior. Finally, we discussed the significance and direction of future research.

최근 비윤리적인 친조직 행태에 대한 연구자들의 관심이 높아지고 있는 가운데 본 연구에서는 조직 동일시가 비윤리적 친조직행동에 미치는 영향에 관하여 검증함과 동시에 조직 동일시과 비윤리적 친조직행동 간의 관계에서 조직몰입의 매개효과를 검증하였다. 선행이론과 문헌 검토를 바탕으로 가설을 설정하였으며 광주와 전남지역 제조업에 종사하는 직원을 대상으로 설문조사를 진행하였다. 연구결과, 조직 동일시는 조직몰입에 유의한 정(+)의 영향을 미치며, 조직몰입은 비윤리적인 친조직행동에 유의한 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 조직몰입은 조직 동일시와 비윤리적인 친조직행동 간의 관계에서 부분적 매개효과를 가지는 것으로 나타났다. 마지막으로 향후 연구의 의의 및 방향에 대해 논의하였다.
