THE IMPACT OF HIGH-PERFORMANCE WORK ENVIRONMENTS ON EMPLOYEE SATISFACTION AND ORGANIZATIONAL CULTURE.

The paper discusses how high-performance work environments can potentially influence employees’ satisfaction and organizational culture in companies where they are created. In many modern organizations, high-performance work environments are developed to achieve higher productivity, improved performance and quality, higher revenues, and employees’ commitment. The problem is that there is no single idea regarding the impact of these environments on employees’ satisfaction and associated culture in organizations. The paper is focused on describing possible correlations between high-performance work environments, employee satisfaction, and organizational culture. The method applied in this study is the quantitative descriptive research based on the analysis of statistical data related to high-performance work environments and job satisfaction. The data analysis indicates that positive correlations can be observed between high-performance environments and their features, improved culture, and job satisfaction.
