    The fabric of employee well-being: a conservation of resources approach to decent work conditions in the Turkish garment industry
    (Emerald Group Publishing Ltd, 2025) Yucel, Yelda; Soydemir, Cemil Ozan; Candan, Cevza; Nergis, Banu
    PurposeBased on a decent work scale (DWS) derived from the decent work literature and tailored to the Turkish garment industry, we propose a multidimensional model showing the differentiated impacts of decent work dimensions on various facets of employee well-being.Design/methodology/approachUsing our customized DWS formulated from discussions with industry experts and academics, the European Working Conditions Survey (2015) and Ferraro et al.'s DWS (2018b), we employ a cross-sectional analysis using surveys of 332 white-collar employees in 6 garment firms across T & uuml;rkiye. We conduct an exploratory factor analysis to identify the DWS structure and a confirmatory factor analysis to validate our model. Finally, we apply a PROCESS analysis to examine direct and indirect effects, assessing relationships among the variables.FindingsWe find white-collar employees in T & uuml;rkiye emphasize earnings and equity as critical resources that enhance all aspects of well-being, while workplace safety, work-family balance and work intensity have more limited effects. The analysis also reveals that physical well-being serves as a mediator between most dimensions of decent work conditions in fostering personal well-being.Originality/valueOur DWS measures decent work conditions specifically for the garment industry based on a unique participatory survey that adds a novel element to survey development. Utilizing conservation of resources theory, our model analyzes the relationships between decent work and employee well-being. By recognizing decent work conditions as valuable resources for well-being, the study offers insights for decision-makers in the garment sector, showing that changes in these resources influence various aspects of well-being that ultimately affect firm productivity and sustainability.

    The resurrection of earlier imprints post mortem: Explaining the Turkish agricultural cooperative movement with an imprinting theory lens, 1888-1937
    (Wiley, 2023) Soydemir, Cemil Ozan; Ercek, Mehmet
    This study aims to extend the cooperative lifecycle theory, which builds on consecutive degeneration and regeneration of ideal cooperative values such as democracy, self-help, and solidarity by offering a new regenerative mechanism. In this respect, the study imports multilevel imprinting theory from the organizational ecology domain to explicate the punctuated evolutionary pattern of Turkish agricultural credit cooperatives, which displayed significantly different characteristics from Raiffeisen cooperatives that cooperative discourse in Turkiye used for a long as a benchmark. The archival research undertaken in the study asserts that the imprints of Ottoman Memleket Sandiks (OMS) have stamped agricultural credit cooperatives of the Republican era long after their erosion. The resurrection of imprints was enabled by Ziraat Bank, which acted as an intermediary organization and took over the remnants of OMSs. Our analyses also suggest that the State's polity and policy transformations culminate in selective activation of past imprints within the Ziraat Bank, which, in turn, shaped the Turkish agricultural cooperative field.
