Despite the personal, financial, and social implications of divorce for employees, research on the intersection of divorce and work has been mainly conducted across disparate literatures, with limited attention paid within the organizational sciences. In this review, we bring together research on employee divorce across multiple disciplines, including sociology, public health, legal studies, economics, family studies, and psychology. We identify three major areas of prior research that can be applied to our understanding of divorce within organizational contexts: interrole interdependencies, economic dependency, and social dynamics. We also highlight overarching themes that emerge from prior research on divorce and work. Building on our review, we then provide recommendations about how to theoretically and empirically advance research on divorce and work. Finally, we discuss the practical implications of our review.

了解离婚与工作之间的关系：概念框架和研究议程


尽管离婚对员工产生个人、财务和社会影响，但对离婚与工作交叉点的研究主要通过不同的文献进行，组织科学领域的关注有限。在这篇综述中，我们汇集了跨多个学科的员工离婚研究，包括社会学、公共卫生、法律研究、经济学、家庭研究和心理学。我们确定了先前研究的三个主要领域，可以应用于我们对组织背景下离婚的理解：角色间的相互依赖、经济依赖和社会动态。我们还强调了先前关于离婚和工作的研究中出现的总体主题。基于我们的回顾，我们随后提供了有关如何从理论上和实证上推进离婚和工作研究的建议。最后，我们讨论了我们的审查的实际意义。
