Abstract (De)
The nature of work has dramatically changed over that last decades: steadily increasing workloads and job-related pressure impact not only health and productivity outcomes of employees but also organizations' overall performance. The support of job crafting behavior is promising in this regard as it allows employees to balance job-related psychological and social demands and resources by proactively shaping their job characteristics. However, job crafting interventions require highly trained work and health specialists, resulting in low adoption rates by organizations until now. Due to the potential of cost-efficient and scalable IT-tailored interventions, we aim to develop design principles for so-called job crafting ISs (JCISs) by designing, implementing and evaluating several prototypes. As a first step, the current research-in-progress proposes a design model for JCISs that addresses three major limitations that are lack of (1) motivation theory in IS research, (2) research on job crafting behavior and (3) a multilevel perspective.
