Job crafting agility is considered as an essential component of today’s challenging and uncertain working environment. Given the importance of job design techniques in the organizational context, it has become crucial to redesign work roles that enhance the competitiveness and sustainability of both human resources and organizations. Therefore, the aim of this research is to explore the antecedents and consequences of job crafting agility from the perspective of white-collar employees. Within the scope of this research, semi-structured interviews were conducted with white-collar employees. The data obtained from these interviews were coded, categorized, and interpreted using the MAXQDA qualitative data analysis software. Code density tables, code maps, comparative analyses, and relational analyses were used to visualize the codes and categories. The analysis results illustrated the concept and indicators of job crafting agility through graphical representations. The factors influencing job crafting agility were presented in a proposed model under three sub-themes: individual, organizational, and current-situational factors. In addition, the consequences of job crafting agility were categorized into two sub-themes: positive and negative outcomes.

Klíčová slova: antecedents, consequences, job crafting agility, white-collar employees.
