Abstract

This study aimed to examine the mediating role of career satisfaction in the relationship between perceived organizational support (POS) and life satisfaction. This quantitative research study used the Satisfaction with Life Scale to measure life satisfaction, the short version of the Survey of Perceived Organizational Support to measure POS, and the Career Satisfaction Scale to measure career satisfaction. This study was conducted on employees who are part of the millennial generation (N = 107), which includes individuals aged 24-38 years old, and who had been working for a minimum of six months. The mediation analysis identified an insignificant direct effect (B =.03, SE =.12, p >.71) and a significant indirect effect (B =.10, SE =.07, BCa CI [.03,.20]), with a medium effect size (k2 =.13, BCa CI [.04,.24]). These results indicate that career satisfaction mediated the relationship between POS and life satisfaction. Therefore, companies should provide support that helps employees maintain their career satisfaction and feel satisfied with their lives.
