abstract = {Using individual data from the European Survey on Working Conditions (ESWC) covering all
EU member states, this study aimed at contributing to our understanding of the effects of
High Performance Workplace Organizations (HPWOs) on worker's job satisfaction. The
estimation results show that a higher involvement of workers in HPWOs is associated with
higher job satisfaction. This positive effect is dominated by the involvement of workers in
flexible work systems, indicating that workers particularly value the opportunities associated
with these systems, such as an increased autonomy over how to perform their tasks, and
increased communication with co-workers. Being involved in team work and job rotations as
well as supporting human resource practices appear to contribute relatively little to the
increased job satisfaction from being involved in HPWOs.},
