Abstract

Happiness or well-being has received lots of popularity due to its significant impact on the long-term profitability and sustainability of organizations. Due to the growing importance of workplace happiness, this study aims to explore the relevant factors that support happiness at work. Based on the extensive literature, it was found that mindfulness, ethical leadership, psychological capital, workplace spirituality, and thriving at work are crucial for increasing happiness at work. Happiness at work fosters job satisfaction, work engagement, and organizational citizenship behavior. It reduces deleterious repercussions like turnover intention, stress, absenteeism, counterproductive work behaviors, etc., which further enhances smooth business processes. Hence, organizations must implement appropriate measurements and practices to ensure workers' well-being and happiness at work for better outcomes and a promising future for organizations.
