Abstract

Through focusing on digital employees registered in three crowdsourcing platforms, we investigate how individual and collaborative job crafting may be positively related to the sense of organizational inclusion and feeling of career satisfaction those digital employees might develop. The authors employed a quantitative research method in which they focused on surveys collected from 279 digital employees and used SmartPLS 3 (Ringle et al., 2015). The results showed that the proactive behaviour embedded within both individual and collaborative job crafting leads to digital employees’ sense of organizational inclusion and subsequently, a feeling of career satisfaction.
