Developing and maintaining an engaged workforce remains a critical objective for HR professionals as domestic and foreign competition stiffens. Perceived organizational support (POS), involving the extent to which employees feel the organization values their work contributions and cares for their well-being, provides an important tool for this objective. Evidence-based research consistently shows that POS is linked to employees’ increased psychological well-being and performance plus reduced absenteeism and turnover. We provide HR professionals, upper-level managers and frontline supervisors with tactics to enhance POS and its benefits for employees and their work organizations.
