| Summary: | Given the lack of research on employees with disability embeddedness in organizations, this study aims to
investigate the mediating effects of organizational climate between leader-member exchanges and employees with
disabilities’ job embeddedness. A survey involving 282 employees with disability working in public and private
Malaysia sectors was performed to test the study hypotheses. Furthermore, the study results were analysed using
the structural equation modelling (SEM) AMOS mediation analysis and indicated partial mediating effects
between the leader-member exchange, organizational climate, and employees with disabilities’s job
embeddedness. As individuals with disability possessed different aptitudes that necessitated diverse management
initiatives from supervisors, the reciprocal advantages gained from employee with disability-supervisor
relationships and organizational climates should be duly considered. The consideration proved essential in
influencing employees with disabilities’ work experiences and employee retention in organizations. It is hoped
that these findings will enhance supervisors’ understanding on the impact of leader-member exchange as well as
organizational climate in strengthening a high-quality relationship with the employees with disability which
simultaneously will boost their job embeddedness. |
