• Employees' job crafting is important because it can result in better person-job fit and motivate better performance, producing favorable outcomes for both employees and organizations. Based on conservation of resources and job crafting theories, we examined effects of environmental resources (job security, autonomy, and feedback) on employees' crafting behaviors through organization-based self-esteem. Data were collected at two time points with a four-week interval. With 425 full-time U.S. employees, path analysis demonstrated that organization-based self-esteem (a personal resource) explained indirect relationships of environmental resources with job crafting behaviors. Furthermore, role ambiguity had a negative influence on the use of resources. It moderated the positive links between environmental resources and organization-based self-esteem, making them weaker, thereby limiting the indirect theoretical effect that resources could have on job crafting. Overall, findings suggest that environmental and personal resources are important antecedents of employees' proactive job crafting at work.
