Purpose - Service employees who work at airline check-in counters in airport are typically employed to undergo emotional labor. Emotional labor of airport service employees is an important managerial issue that must be solved. This study attempts to examine the underlying mechanism of emotional labor on turnover intention. It focuses on the consequences of emotional labor of service employees. The purpose of this study is to examine and empirically test how the two-types of emotional labor(deep-acting & surface-acting) of service employees differently affect the level of their job satisfaction and job stress. It also investigates the relationship between job satisfaction, job stress, and turnover intention. For this purpose, first, this study identified the structural relationship between emotional labor, job satisfaction, job stress, and turnover intention. Second, it investigated the mediating effects of job satisfaction between deep-acting and turnover intention. Research design, data, and methodology - To empirically test these structural relationships among research variables, data were collected by a interview from service manager of domestic airline companies and survey from 179 service employees who are working at single domestic airline check-in counters in airports in Korea using a self-rating questionnaire with total 19 items dealing with emotional labor, job satisfaction, job stress, and turnover intention. To test the research hypotheses, collected data were analyzed by confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and structure equation model (SEM). Results - This study obtains meaningful research results. The results from this study are as follows. First, deep-acting has a positive effect on job satisfaction, whereas, deep-acting has a negative effect on job satisfaction. Second, surface-acting has a positive effect on job stress, whereas, the effects of surface-acting on job satisfaction did not show statistically significant result. Also, job satisfaction has partial mediating roles to the relationship between deep-acting and turnover intention. Conclusions - Based on the results of this empirical study, emotional labor of service employees is one of the key factors influencing their job satisfaction and job stress. In particular, deep-acting is the important factor in emotional labor to increase job satisfaction and reduce job stress. Finally, theoretical, managerial implications, and research limitations are mentioned in discussion parts.

현재 감정노동에 관한 수많은 이론적 연구와 실증적 연구가 진행되고 있으며, 감정노동의 선행요인과 결과요인에 대한 연구도 많이 진행되고 있다. 그러나 이러한 감정노동의 개념이나 영향요인과 결과요인에 대한 이론 확립이나 실증적인 연구가 부족하므로 체계적인 접근과 연구가 필요하다. 본 연구의 목적은 감정노동의 이론적 정립, 영향요인과 결과요인으로서 서비스 제공수준과의 관계를 파악하는데 있다. 본 연구의 실증분석 결과, 영향변수인 직무관련 요인과 표현 규칙이 감정노동에 유의한 영향을 미치고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 감정노동의 표면적 행동(SA)과 내면적 행동(DA)은 종사원의 서비스 제공수준에 유의한 영향관계를 갖으며, 특히 DA는 여행서비스 제공자의 서비스 태도에 SA보다 영향력이 강한 것으로 나타났다. 따라서, 여행업계에서는 직무환경 등을 고려한 회사차원의 인센티브 프로그램의 교육 훈련 등이 필요한 것으로 분석된다 이러한 연구에도 불구하고 본 연구는 한계를 갖게 되므로, 향후 연구에서는 감정노동과 이를 제어할 수 있는 변수들과의 관계를 심층적으로 파악하는 시도가 진행되어야 할 것이다.

Methods : A survey was taken among dental hygienists working at dental clinics, and 200 questionnaires were used in analysis. The gathered data were put to Cronbach's alpha with the SPSS WIN12.0 program to test the reliability of the inventories to measure their emotional labor and job stress. In addition, correlation analysis was conducted to examine relations between the items of emotional labor and those of job stress along with regression analysis to examine relations between emotional labor and job stress. Finally, t-test and One-way ANOVA were conducted to test mean differences in the job stress items according to the degrees of emotional labor with the statistical significance level set at 0.05. Results : 1. The measurement tool used in the study recorded 0.7 for all the areas of Cronbach's alpha for internal reliability and thus achieved high reliability. 2. The overall mean of emotional labor was 2.74, which indicates that the dental hygienists had 'average' or higher stress for emotional labor. 3. Emotional labor had statistically significant relations with educational background, place of work, motivation to choose to be a dental hygienist, and religion of their general characteristics. 4. There was statistical significance in relations between general characteristics and job stress according to educational background, position at work, and experience with change of occupation. 5. The correlations between emotional labor and the stress areas were analyzed. As a result, emotional labor was in positive(+) correlations with job demand, lack of job autonomy, relational conflict, job instability, organizational system, and corporate culture. In addition, regression analysis was conducted to test causal relations between emotional labor and job stress. The results indicate that there were positive(+) influences between emotional labor and job stress.
