- Daily work engagement is a process through which daily micro-events at work influence life satisfactionPublication . Junça-Silva, Ana; Caetano, Antonio; Rueff, RitaPurpose – Drawing upon the conservation of resources theory, the authors expected that daily micro-events, daily hassles and uplifts at work influenced well-being via work engagement at the daily level. Design/methodology/approach – The authors conducted two diary studies. In study 1, 181 workers answered a daily questionnaire for four working days (N 5 181 3 4 5 724). In study 2, 51 workers filled in a questionnaire for ten consecutive working days (N 5 51 3 10 5 510). Findings – In study 1, the results demonstrated that work engagement fully mediated the effects of daily uplifts on well-being and partially mediated the effects of daily hassles on well-being. The results of study 2 revealed a full mediation for both kinds of daily micro-events. Hence, daily uplifts stimulated work engagement, which, in turn, enhanced well-being, and daily hassles minimized work engagement and, consequently, well-being. Originality/value – The relationships explored provide new theoretical elements for models that explain well-being.
