Editorial reading guide · Trust

What would supportive supervision look like in a smaller employer?

This reading brings family-supportive supervisors in links among work-life balance, satisfaction and performance in SMEs into the trust pathway. The sme employee survey using partial least squares structural modeling offers a specific workplace lens on how employment and family life meet.

Study context

Employees in small and medium-sized enterprises in the original survey

Age / stage: Working adults; children not directly assessed

Read with three questions

  1. How did the researchers define and assess work-life balance and family-supportive supervision?
  2. What does the study design allow us to conclude about the proposed satisfaction and performance relationships?
  3. What would need to be checked before adopting family-supportive management suited to a small business?

Keep the limits in view

Survey modeling is observational and context-specific; performance and satisfaction associations are not proof that a policy improves productivity.
