Abstract

In the time of digitalization within the framework of the fourth technological revolution, it is necessary to return the human being to the first place in the science of management. Men and women as the performers of activities should be on the pedestal of all modern processes that take place in society and business, to avoid the problem in which the society was “trapped“, during the previous industrial revolutions. The application of information technology in general and artificial intelligence in particular affects the design and content of the main components of job design, which inevitably leads to a reflection on the satisfaction and performance of employees at the workplace. The paper aims to explore the impact of specific workplace components on employee satisfaction and performance, further recognizing which components contribute the most in the context of digitalization and 4IR. From Hackman and Oldham’s job design theory and Mintzberg’s organizational structure framework, we propose and test a research framework that investigated the impact of technical system, work assignment and worker features on employee satisfaction and performance in a contemporary context. The research was conducted in Bosnia and Herzegovina on a random sample of 125 respondents from public and private sector organizations, different industries and companies’ sizes. The analysis was realized through hierarchical multiple linear regression model and the key findings revealed that the task and knowledge characteristics of artificial intelligence-enabled jobs are vitally important for inducing innovative work behaviour among employees.U doba digitalizacije u okviru četvrte tehnološke revolucije potrebno je ponovno postaviti ljudskobiće na pijedestal u području menadžmenta. Muškarci i žene kao nosioci aktivnosti trebaju biti napijedestalu svih suvremenih procesa koji se odvijaju u društvu i poslovanju, kako bi se izbjegao problemu kojem je društvo bilo „zarobljeno“ tijekom prethodnih industrijskih revolucija. Primjena informacijsketehnologije uopće, a posebice umjetne inteligencije, utječe na dizajn i sadržaj glavnih komponentidizajna posla, što neminovno dovodi do refleksije na zadovoljstvo i učinak zaposlenih na radnommjestu. Cilj rada jest istražiti utjecaj specifičnih komponenti radnog mjesta na zadovoljstvo i učinakzaposlenih, dodatno prepoznajući koje komponente im najviše doprinose u kontekstu digitalizacije i4IR-a. Iz teorije dizajna poslova Hackmana i Oldhama i Mintzbergovog okvira organizacijske strukture,predlažemo i testiramo istraživački okvir koji procjenjuje utjecaj tehničkog sustava, radnog zadatka ikarakteristika zaposlenika na zadovoljstvo i učinak zaposlenih u suvremenom kontekstu. Istraživanjeje provedeno u Bosni i Hercegovini na slučajnom uzorku od 125 ispitanika iz organizacija javnogi privatnog sektora, različitih industrija i veličina poduzeća. Analiza je realizirana kroz hijerarhijskimodel višestruke linearne regresije, a ključni nalazi su otkrili da su karakteristike zadataka i znanjao umjetnoj inteligenciji od vitalnog značaja za poticanje inovativnog ponašanja među zaposlenima.
