Distinguishes manager and coworker support when examining trust and organizational identification, making the quality of the working relationship part of practical care.
Study context
1,028 working mothers in Spain.

Keep the limits in view
Cross-sectional self-reports and structural models cannot establish causal direction; the study does not measure every form of workplace belonging or feeding support.
