Perubahan organisasi memberikan tantangan baru bagi karyawan dalam melakukan penyesuaian

terhadap kompetensi pekerjaannya. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengeksplorasi peran

perceived organizational support (POS) terhadap adaptabilitas karir melalui mediasi work

meaningfulness. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dan pengumpulan data

melalui metode purposive sampling. Instrumen pengukuran yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini

meliputi skala CAAS-SF untuk mengukur adaptabilitas karir, skala SPOS untuk mengukur

Perceived Organizational Support, dan skala WAMI untuk mengukur work meaningfulness.

Sejumlah 194 karyawan PT SPC dari berbagai level jabatan menjadi partisipan dalam penelitian

ini. Metode analisis data menggunakan Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) melalui aplikasi

SMART PLS 4.0. Hasil penelitian menemukan bahwa work meaningfulness memediasi hubungan

antara POS dan adaptabilitas karir secara parsial. Meskipun efek langsung POS terhadap

adaptabilitas karir signifikan, tetapi peran work meaningfulness sebagai mediator memberikan

kontribusi yang lebih besar. Dengan demikian, hipotesis penelitian ini diterima. Temuan penelitian

ini menunjukkan bahwa organisasi harus membuat program yang dapat memfasilitasi work

meaningfulness karyawan sebagai upaya strategis dalam meningkatkan adaptabilitas karir.

Organizational changes present new challenges for employees in adjusting their work

competencies. This study aims to explore the role of perceived organizational support (POS) on

career adaptability through the mediation of work meaningfulness. A quantitative approach was

used with data collected using purposive sampling. The measurement instruments used in this

research include CAAS-SF to assess career adaptability, SPOS scale to assess perceived

organizational support, and WAMI to assess work meaningfulness. 194 employees from various

levels at PT SPC participated in this study. The data analysis method used Structural Equation

Modelling (SEM) through SMART PLS 4.0. The data analysis results indicate that work

meaningfulness partially mediates the relationship between POS and career adaptability.

Although the direct effect of POS on career adaptability remains significant, the role of work

meaningfulness as a mediator provides a greater contribution. Thus, the research hypothesis is

accepted. These findings suggest that organizations should develop programs that facilitate

employees’ work meaningfulness as a strategic effort to enhance career adaptability.
