Abstract

The current study examines the relationship between disruptive technologies and outcomes for workers, as moderated by organizational support and controlling for technology proclivities. Drawing upon disruptive innovation theory, technology readiness, and organizational support theory, the present study is an experimental, 2 (augmentation, automation) x 3 (low-support, high-support, absence of support information) between-subjects design, examining the outcomes of perceived job security and affective well-being. I conducted a 2x3 analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) for two dependent variables of interest. I found support for a main effect, such that employees will have worse outcomes when they perceive a threat that their job will be automated. I did not find support for a main effect of organizational support on outcomes or for a moderating effect of the support of the organization on the relationship between the nature of the technology and the outcomes. These results indicate a relationship between disruptive technologies and worker outcomes.
