| Abstract | Due to the increasing technology, it is more difficult for coworkers to trust one another. The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of affect-based and cognition-based trust from coworkers on organizational identity, ethnic identity and mental health. Besides, this study also investigate whether there are differences in Dutch and non-Dutch employees. Based on the rejection-identification model it is expected that employees who are trusted by their coworkers, affect-based and cognition-based, have a higher level of organizational identity and a lower level of ethnic identity. Based on the job demands-resource model it is expected that employees who are trusted by their coworkers, affect-based and cognitionbased, have better mental health. Based on the social identity theory it is expected that Dutch employees have a higher level of organizational identity, a lower level of ethnic identity and better mental health compared to non-Dutch employees. This study was conducted in the Netherlands and used a sample of 346 employees (of which non-Dutch employees n = 69). Hierarchical multiple regression analyses were performed to test the hypotheses. Results show that employees who are affectively trusted by coworkers have a higher level of organizational identity and better mental health. No Dutch and non-Dutch group differences are found in the relationships. At the end of the paper, the limitations, suggestions for future research and implications of the study are discussed. |
