The effect of workplace spirituality on employees' contextual performance through work effectiveness

“…It provides empirical evidence that a key precondition for employee contextual performance is work effectiveness. This finding is consistent and confirms previous studies which claim that work effectiveness has a significant effect on contextual performance (e.g., Arifin & Akhmad, 2022;Arifin & Hidayat, 2023;Rani et al, 2021) and at the same time is an antithesis to Afram et al's study. (2022) and Jiang and Liu (2015) that work effectiveness does not influence performance and performance actually influences effectiveness.…”

“…So far, no research has been found proving that work effectiveness mediates the influence of workplace spirituality on employees' contextual performance. However, these findings confirm several previous relevant studies which prove that workplace spirituality impacts effectiveness (Daniel, 2010;Kusnadi & Prijono, 2023), work effectiveness affects performance (Arifin & Akhmad, 2022;Arifin & Hidayat, 2023;Rani et al, 2021;Tuffaha, 2020;Assbeihat, 2016;Tsai & Tsai, 2017), and workplace spirituality influences performance (Nwanzu & Babalola, 2021;Jena, 2021;Ekowati, 2022). As shown in testing H3, workplace spirituality has a direct positive effect on employees' work effectiveness.…”

“…Apart from being influenced by workplace spirituality (Daniel, 2010;Kusnadi & Prijono, 2023), it also impacts contextual performance. Several researchers demonstrated that empowerment, collaboration, and obedience as indicators of work effectiveness have a significant effect on performance (e.g., Arifin & Akhmad, 2022;Arifin & Hidayat, 2023;Rani et al, 2021;Tuffaha, 2020;Assbeihat, 2016;Tsai & Tsai, 2017). This empirical fact confirms work effectiveness's role in mediating workplace spirituality's influence on contextual performance.…”

“…Although no specific research has investigated the influence of work effectiveness on contextual performance, several studies point to a causal relationship between work effectiveness and contextual performance. For example, studies prove the relationship between empowerment, collaboration, and obedience as indicators of work effectiveness and performance (e.g., Arifin & Akhmad, 2022;Arifin & Hidayat, 2023;Rani et al, 2021;Tuffaha, 2020;Assbeihat, 2016;Tsai & Tsai, 2017). Thus, it can promote the second hypothesis as follows: H2: Work effectiveness has a positive direct effect on employees' contextual performance.…”
