Abstract :
The purpose of this paper is to test the relationship between perceived empowerment practices and sugar industries employee service effort and turnover intention, also to examine the mediating role of employee job satisfaction and attitudes in this relationship. Employees satisfied with their careers should be a major priority for every employer. Survey data were collected by a questionnaire from workers at sugar industries in Perambalur. The final sample of 110 participants rated empowerment practices in their workplace, as well as their job attitudes, service effort and turnover intention. Perceived empowerment practices were measured using items from Hayes‘ employee employment questionnaire. Statistically significant results were obtained for a full mediating effect of job attitudes on the relationship between empowerment practices and turnover intention. However, the relationship between empowerment and sugar industries employee service effort was insignificant. Most of the conceptual underpinnings for this study come from research carried out in Western countries and more work should be done within organizations from various parts of the world and more qualitative research would be appropriate for theory-building research. Managers in service industries in India should carefully monitor employee job attitudes towards the empowerment practices. Owing to cultural differences on the high Vs low power distance dimension in particular, managers from the West should not overlook how much empowerment is accepted among sugar industries service employees. Contributing to attitude engagement theory, job attitudes consisting of job satisfaction and organizational commitment explain the success of empowerment implementation in India.
