<dim:field mdschema="dc" element="description" qualifier="abstract" lang="en">Job embeddedness is a relatively new construct that Lee, Mitchell and colleagues started researching in 1995 (Lee, Burch, and Mitchell, 2014). That construct explains why people stay in their current jobs. A questionnaire was sent to a sample of random emails found on websites of 183 of the 300 biggest companies in Iceland. I sent out a total of 5748 emails to employees and received 1282 replies (22.3% answer rate). Not all participants answered all the questions concerning job embeddedness, but a total of 1135 did so, giving a final of 19.8% answer rate. There were a total of 8 hypotheses in the study, the first one regarding distinct job embeddedness from work engagement. The second one stated that gender would not affect job embeddedness; hypotheses 3, 4, 5, and 6 were about the effect of age, education, job tenure, and size of a company having effect on job embeddedness. Hypothesis 7 was about job embeddedness describing turnover intentions, and finally hypothesis 8, whether job embeddedness had an effect on job performance. The results showed that hypothesis 1, 3, 5, 7, and 8 were supported, gender had an effect on job embeddedness, but education and size of the company did not.</dim:field>
<dim:field mdschema="dc" element="description" qualifier="abstract" lang="is">Starfsfesta (job embeddedness) er tiltölulega nýtt hugtak sem Lee, Mitchell og félagar byrjuðu að rannsaka árið 1995 (Lee, Burch og Mitchell, 2014). Þetta hugtak útskýrir af hverju starfsmenn haldast í starfi sínu. Sendur var út spurningalisti á veföng sem valin voru af handahófi frá 183 fyrirtækjum af 300 stærstu fyrirtækjum á Íslandi. Send voru út á 5748 veföng og voru 1282 sem svöruðu (22.3% svarhlutfall). Það voru hinsvegar ekki allir þátttakendur sem svöruðu öllum spurningum tengdum starfs festu, eða 1135 sem gerði 19.8% loka svarhlutfall. Það voru 8 tilgátur settar fram í rannsókninni, fyrsta var hvort starfsfesta og helgun í starfi (job engagement) séu lík en samt sitthvor hugtökin. Önnur tilgátan var um að kyn hefði ekki áhrif á starfsfestu; tigátur 3, 4, 5 og 6 voru um að aldur, menntun, fjöldi ára í starfi og stærð fyrirtækja hefðu áhrif á starfsfestu einstaklinga. Tilgáta 7 var að starfsfesta útskýrði hluta af starfsveltu. Að lokum var tilgáta 8 um að starfsfesta hefði áhrif á vinnuframlag þátttakenda. Niðurstöður sýndu að tilgátur 1, 3, 5, 7 og 8 voru studdar, kyn hafði áhrif á starfsfestu, en menntun og stærð fyrirtækja ekki.</dim:field>
