Abstract: The study tested the relationship between workplace spirituality, positive and negative affect at work and job satisfaction. 387 employees working in power utility in India completed workplace spirituality scale by (Petchsawang and Duchon, 2009) job affect scale (Brief et al., 1988) and job satisfaction (Adams et al., 1995). Results were analysed using structural equation modelling and regression analysis. The positive and negative affect at work mediated the relationship between workplace spirituality and job satisfaction with positive affect exerting a stronger influence. Among the four workplace spirituality dimensions compassion, meaningful work and mindfulness were significant independent predictors of affect at work. The results extend the literature on workplace spirituality effects in organisational settings.
