有备无患：后续疫情中新冠焦虑对武汉员工防护和工作的影响研究

国内局部疫情陆续暴发,关注已有疫情经历的员工防护和工作行为对疫情防控有一定意义。基于资源保存理论,文章假设新冠焦虑对武汉员工防护行为和工作结果有显著影响,且对防护行为影响大于对工作结果的影响。在2021年初国内局部疫情期间,对52名武汉员工连续5天的调查发现,每日新冠焦虑通过每日新冠耗竭显著提升武汉员工新冠防护行为,但武汉员工每日工作产出不受疫情影响,包括工作绩效、创新绩效、工作导向和人际导向的帮助行为。文章揭示了有2020年新冠肺炎疫情直接经验的武汉员工对待后续疫情防护的谨慎态度,以及在工作结果方面对后续疫情的“抗干扰性”。结合当前情况,讨论了研究结果对疫情防控和经济恢复的实践意义。

Preparedness Is the Key: A Study on the Impact of Covid-19 Anxiety on the Protection and Work of Wuhan Employees in the Follow-up Epidemic

As local epidemic outbreaks continue to occur in China, it is important to pay attention to the protection and work behavior of Wuhan employees who have already experienced outbreaks to prevent and control the epidemic. Based on conservation of resources (COR) theory, this study hypothesizes that Covid-19 anxiety has a significant effect on protective behaviors and work outcomes of Wuhan employees, and the effect on protective behaviors is greater than that on work outcomes. During the domestic local epidemic in early 2021, a 5-day survey of 52 Wuhan employees found that daily Covid-19 anxiety significantly improved Wuhan employees’ Covid-19 protection behavior through daily Covid-19 exhaustion. However, Wuhan employees’ daily work output was not affected by the epidemic, including task performance, innovation performance, task-oriented and interpersonal-oriented helping behaviors. This study reveals the cautious attitude of Wuhan employees who had direct experience with the 2020 Covid-19 epidemic towards the follow-up epidemic protection, as well as the “anti-disturbance” of their work results to the subsequent epidemic. Based on the current situation, the research discusses the practical significance of the research results for epidemic prevention and control and economic recovery.
