해외파견자의 적응과 체류의도: 개인, 조직, 업무, 비업무 요인의 다차원적 영향에 대한 한국 사례 연구

초록

Purpose - This study aims to empirically analyze the effects of individual, organizational, work, and non-work factors on local adjustment and long-term stay intentions of overseas personnel dispatched to Korea. Design/methodology/approach - The research employs Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) for data analysis, and additional path analysis is conducted to understand the specific influences of each factor. Findings - The analysis reveals that individual characteristics and organizational support are positive factors that facilitate local adjustment. Non-work factors, particularly those related to accompanying family members, also demonstrate a significant positive impact. Conversely, work factors are found to have a negative influence, suggesting that the formal operation of mentoring programs may induce psychological burdens. Research implications or Originality - This study’s originality lies in empirically highlighting the critical impact of family adjustment on expatriate adjustment and stay intention, particularly within the unique Korean context, thereby challenging traditional work-centric research views. Furthermore, it introduces the concept of ‘counterproductive support’ by revealing that work factors can paradoxically hinder adjustment, emphasizing the necessity for ‘localized implementation’ of organizational support programs.
