    IMPACT OF PERCEIVED SUPERVISOR SUPPORT ON OCCUPATIONAL BURNOUT AMONG EXECUTIVE LEVEL EMPLOYEES IN ABANS FINANCE PLC, SRI LANKA
    (Department of Human Resource Management, Faculty of Commerce and Management Studies, University of Kelaniya, Sri Lanka., 2025) Sewwandi, A.A.H.G.R.; Gunasekara, V.M.
    This study examines the impact of perceived supervisor support on occupational burnout among executive level employees in Abans Finance PLC, Sri Lanka, with a particular focus on the moderating role of workload. In addition to that, this study intends to contribute to filling the knowledge gap by looking into the relationship between perceived supervisor support and occupational burnout among executive level employees. Although there is literature on perceived supervisor support (concrete support and abstract support) on occupational burnout in organizations, there is a dearth of research in the context of the finance sector to test this relationship. This research is deductive (theory–testing) research. The research was conducted using a survey research strategy and a quantitative research method. The Abans Finance PLC executive level employees were chosen as the population of the study. The sample size was 190. Data collection was done through a self-administered questionnaire. A Google form was created and distributed to collect data. The Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS), version 23.0, was used as a tool for data analysis, and both descriptive and inferential statistics, namely correlation and regression, were used to analyze data. The results indicate that perceived supervisor support has a strong negative relationship with occupational burnout, and workload significantly moderates the relationship between perceived supervisor support and occupational burnout.

    The Impact of Perceived Supervisor Support, Perceived Co-worker Support and Perceived Organizational Support on Organizational Citizenship Behavior: A Study at United Motors Lanka PLC
    (5th HRM Student Research Symposium 2018, Department of Human Resource Management, Faculty of Commerce and Management Studies, University of Kelaniya, Sri Lanka, 2018) Perera, P. W. N. D.; Karunarathne, R. A. I. C.
    Organizational Citizenship Behavior (OCB) is an important and growing area of every Organization. Prior research on social support extensively have investigated the role of social support on employee success. However, we still know little about how support from distinct sources of support contributes to build OCB of operational level employees. Thus, the main purpose of this study was to assess the impact of 3 important, distinct sources of support, i.e. perceived supervisor support, perceived co-worker support and perceived organizational support on OCB in United Motors Lanka PLC. The study was quantitative and cross-sectional in nature. Using a structured questionnaire, I collected data from 80 operational level employees those who are employed in United Motors Lanka PLC. The data were analyzed using simple linear regression. The results showed that perceived organizational support significantly influence on OCB. However, our findings showed there is no significant impact of perceived supervisor support and perceived co-worker support on organizational citizenship behavior. We recommend management to create sense of OCB through increasing the support of organization by establishing fair reward system that responds to employee needs, builds an environment that will help employees to work smoothly, give training opportunities and intangible rewards to value their contribution to organization
