Creating sustainable performance emerged as a crucial issue for any profit and non-profit organization. In this complex and competitive environment, organizations should play a better role in encouraging their employees to thrive at work. Existing evidence from various industries confirmed that thriving at work contributed to organizational performance and helps to mitigate problems such as stress and turnover. This study relied on the socially embedded model to unravel the connection between meaningful work, sense of community, organizational values, and thriving at work. Survey data were gathered from government officers attached from four local government institutions in Malaysia. The analysis employed in the study were Descriptive, Pearson correlation, and Multiple Regression. The study found that thriving positively relates to meaningful work. However, the results surprisingly revealed that a sense of community and organizational values were not significantly related to thriving at work. Interpretations of results, implications, and future research are discussed. Thus, this study will benefit organizations as well as academic researchers.
