Despite many studies conducted on employee happiness, limited studies have been focusing on its relationship with social media usage. During the last two decades, social media has infiltrated every aspect of socio-cultural, economic, and human existence at an unprecedented rate. However, little is known whether the social media usage is an antecedent to their happiness at work. This study delineates the potential effects of social media exposure on individual wellbeing and whether this has a favorable effect on their happiness at work. The study delves into the social media usage among employees of manufacturing companies and their impact on their wellbeing, working environment and happiness.
