Integrating the expanding job embeddedness (JE) literature, in this article we advance a multifoci model of JE that is theoretically grounded in conservation of resources (COR) theory. From COR theory, we posit that employees' motivation to acquire and protect resources explains why they become embedded and how they behave once embedded. Our COR-based JE model highlights contextual antecedents that clarify how employees become embedded within different foci. Its multifoci theoretical lens also illustrates how different forms of work-focused embeddedness differentially affect work outcomes and how they interact with nonwork foci to influence those outcomes. Along with directions for further research, we further discuss theoretical and practical implications of our integrative formulation.

Article Synopsis
- AI technology is changing the skills needed for employees, leading to shifts in their job roles and performance.
- A study involving 479 employees from 8 companies in China examined how these changing job skill demands affect employee well-being and performance, using statistical analysis.
- The findings indicate that while AI increases the need for employees to develop new competencies (enhancing well-being and performance), it can also decrease their sense of job embeddedness (lowering well-being and performance), with technological anxiety influencing these effects.
