Abstract

Resilience is a crucial aspect in today's workplace as it is linked to employee performance, loyalty, and job satisfaction. It‘s therefore important for organizations and individuals to study resilience. This study aimed to identify the individual, social, and organizational factors that influence resilience among employees. Resilience is crucial for organizations to cope with adversity and hardship, and individuals who lack resilience are more likely to feel overwhelmed and use harmful coping mechanisms. The study examined the impact of individual and social factors, as well as organizational culture and commitment, on employee resilience. The participants in this survey were working individuals from various sectors/ industries and data was collected from a sample of 150 people comprising 79 females and 71 males. The data also contains responses from generations X, Y and generation Z. The research suggests that there is a moderate to a high degree of positive correlation between resilience and individual factors, social factors, organizational culture, and organizational commitment. Specifically, individual factors such as self-assurance, personal vision, flexibility, organization, problem-solving skills, and proactivity are positively correlated with resilience. Social factors such as interpersonal competence and social connectedness are also positively correlated with resilience. Additionally, organizational culture factors such as achievement and affiliation are positively correlated with resilience, while continuance commitment does not correlate with resilience. Employers and organizations can benefit from this knowledge by investing in programs and policies that promote the development of these factors in their employees, which can lead to increased resilience and better job performance. Additionally, identifying and addressing factors that may be hindering the development of these factors in employees can help create a more supportive and resilient work environment.
