The Influence of Employee Competency and Team Cohesion on Workload Spike Performance through Job Autonomy: Structural Equation Modeling Approach

Abstract

Employee performance is a key component of organizational development and success. Understanding employee performance during workload spikes, which involve sudden increases in workload, is particularly important for assessing employees' potential and efficiency. Examining employees’ workload spike performance through the lens of job autonomy, supported by employee competency and team cohesion, provides a new perspective and contributes additional insights to the existing literature. The Research aims to understand that new perspective of exploring the employee competency and team cohesion through job autonomy on workload spike performance. The Data was collected from IT Employees working in Chennai, Bangalore and Hyderabad with sample size of 294. The collected Data was analyzed using Percentage Analysis, Descriptive Statistics, Confirmatory Factor Analysis, Structural Equation Modeling in MS Excel 2019, IBM SPPS Statistics 21, IBM SPPS Statistics AMOS 21. The Data Analysis Results reveals that there is a significantly strong relationship of both employee Competency and Team cohesion on Job Autonomy towards the workload Spike Performance.
