This study explores how Human Resources (HR) environment (i.e., job autonomy, opportunities for advancement, involved communication, and decisive action) promotes psychological well-being of public employees. We advance the literature by identifying organizational identification (OID) as the underpinning mechanism through which HR environment can foster employees’ well-being. OID is termed as a “social cure,” owing to its strong link with employee health and well-being. The results of structural equation modeling show a positive association among HR practices and OID, which subsequently enhances well-being of public sector employees. Managerial implications for public sector leaders are discussed in detail.

这项研究探讨了人力资源（HR）环境（即工作自主权，晋升机会，参与的沟通和果断行动）如何促进公职人员的心理健康。我们通过确定组织识别（OID）作为人力资源环境可以促进员工福祉的基础机制来推动文献发展。OID由于与员工的健康和福祉有着密切的联系，因此被称为“社会疗法”。结构方程建模的结果显示，人力资源实践与OID之间存在正相关关系，从而增强了公共部门员工的福祉。详细讨论了对公共部门领导者的管理意义。
