Digital Job Crafting: Toward an Integrated Socio-technical Model

In this paper, we introduce digital job crafting as an evolution of the concept of job crafting. An in-depth literature review demonstrated that in the broad research dedicated to job crafting, only limited attention has been dedicated to the effect that digital technology exerts on job crafting practices. We propose using the socio-technical approach to make these impacts explicit and, thus, reframe the concept of job crafting in a new, integrated model. Two case studies are presented to explore the effectiveness of applying the model in different organizational contexts.
