IS WORKPLACE IDENTITY SCALE (WIS) APPLICABLE ACROSS CULTURES?

Summary/Abstract: Workplace identity (WI) is a multi-dimensional work-based self-concept that blends organizational, occupational, and other identities to shape people's responsibilities and behaviors. It has a positive impact on employee behavior and organizational outcomes. The study perfected and validated an earlier version of the Workplace Identity Scale (WIS) using a two-country sample (248 respondents from India and 239 - from Saudi Arabia). The revised WIS, which contains 14 items under four factors. It has been proven as a stable, reliable, and valid measure of workplace identity. Hence, the new alternative to the earlier version of WIS can be used across cultures to accurately measure WI. The revised WIS is expected to trigger renewed empirical interest in and examination of WI.
