Abstract Based on Job Demand-Control-Support (JDCS) Model, this paper explores the antecedents of employee well-being (EWB) and dependent variables of EWB. By conducting a meta-analysis review consisting of 92 independent empirical researches, 239 effect sizes, and 60158 independent samples, we conclude that social support has a stronger effect on EWB, which in turn leads to more affective efficacy in the workplace. Specifically, we find that (1) control/autonomy and social support can promote EWB, but an opposite effect of job demand is observed. (2) EWB not only promotes employees’ job performance, organizational commitment, and organizational citizenship behavior, but also reduces turnover intention. (3) EWB has positive relationships with affective outcomes and effectively promotes organizational citizenship behavior more. Compared with task performance and normative commitment, EWB is a stronger factor that promotes contextual performance and affective commitment. (4) In addition, the measurement used, as well as regional-cultural contexts, can significantly affect the relationship between EWB and both its antecedents and consequences. The relationship turns stronger when using measurement of Psychological Well-being or in Eastern culture context.
