Title: A systematic review of happiness at work and cultural dimensions
Abstract: This systematic literature review aims to scrutinize the theoretical backgrounds of happiness at work by reviewing 226 articles related to the antecedents of workplace happiness. Also, drawing on insights from the extensive positive psychology literature and current conceptualization on happiness at work. The implications of happiness at work in Africa are discussed in terms of happiness-related concepts and look at how the Hofstede’s cultural dimensions explicate the strategic outcomes of happiness in the Moroccan context. Many researches (e.g. Feuvrier, 2014; Hayo, 2007; Schnebelen & Bruhn, 2018; Semedo et al., 2019) arguably examine happiness either at the sociodemographic level, or at the psychological level, but, indeed, an interaction between them would affect happiness at work. The aim of this literature review is to embark on new directions for empirical research regarding the subject. Keywords: Happiness at work, Morocco, Well-being, person-environment fit, Hofstede, cultural dimensions. JEL Classification: I31, M12 Paper type: Theoretical Research
