abstract: 'There is a robust literature that examines outcomes associated with
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
work-life supports. Scholars have considered the `fit'' between employee
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
needs and the supports available while others have examined the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`usability''-or the potential consequences of using-work-life supports.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In this article, we suggest that `fit'' and `usability'' could be related
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
to both employees'' own demographic, social, and cultural identities, as
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
well as perceptions of fairness at the workplace. While scholars have
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
focused on organizational justice and workplace fairness for quite some
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
time, the context of diversity-in its many forms-has rarely been
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
included in this conversation or has simply been added as a series of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
controls in statistical analyses without regard to diversity''s various
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
forms. In response, we review the work-life literature to consider the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
broad context of diversity as well as various domains of workplace
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
fairness. We then present a conceptual framework that aims to guide
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
future work-life research on the fit and usability of work-life supports
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
in the context of diversity and perceptions of fairness. We also offer
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
research propositions to stimulate future scholarship and present
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
findings from an exploratory study to illustrate the importance of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
considering the context of diversity in studies on workplace fairness.'
