職場中的幽默感，近年來在實務領域中逐漸受到重視，領導者和企業無不關注如何正確應用職場幽默，拉近彼此的關係，建立主管和員工，以及員工彼此之間的信任，有了信任感，將有助於提升工作關係的品質，增進組織的效能，也讓員工更願意自發性、有同理心的為公司付出，表現出更多的組織公民行為，也更嵌入此工作中，應用幽默所帶來的巨大益處。因此本研究將探討職場中主管和同事的幽默、信任、組織公民行為和工作內鑲嵌的關聯性。

本研究共回收595份問卷，扣除無效問卷99份問卷，最終有效問卷為496份，運用SPSS Statistics 22及 SmartPLS (V.3.3.3) 統計軟體進行分析。研究結果發現主管展現幽默會正向影響員工對主管的信任，對主管的信任會正向影響員工的堅守本分行為和組織公益行為，以及正向影響員工的組織契合和組織犧牲，然而並未顯著影響人際利他行為和組織連結。此外也發現同事幽默會正向影響員工對同事的信任，接著信任會正向影響員工的人際利他行為，以及組織連結、組織契合和組織犧牲。

而在間接效果的部分，主管幽默透過主管信任，對堅守本分行為、組織公益行為、組織契合、組織犧牲有正向間接影響。同事幽默透過同事信任，對人際利他行為、組織連結、組織契合、組織犧牲有正向間接影響。

Humor in the workplace has received increasing attention in the practical areas in the recent years. Leaders are concerned about how to properly use workplace humor, and thus draw the members closer and build trust between supervisors and employees. Trust will help improve the working relationship quality and enhance the organizational effectiveness. Also, trust will result in making employees more willing to contribute to the company and show more organizational citizenship behaviors. Besides, trust will make employees more embed themselves in the organizations. These are the great benefits of proper using of humor. Therefore, this study will study the relevance of workplace humor, trust, organizational citizenship behavior, and organizational job embeddedness.

496 valid questionnaires were statistically analyzed. The results of the study show that supervisor humor is positively related to employee’s trust in supervisor, and trust in supervisor is positively related to employee’s in-role behavior, generalized compliance behavior, organizational fit and organizational sacrifice. Besides, colleague humor is positively related to employee’s trust in colleagues, and trust in colleagues is positively related to employee’s altruism behavior, organizational links, organizational fit and organizational sacrifice.

Supervisor humor has a positive and indirect influence on employee’s in-role behavior, generalized compliance behavior, organizational fit and organizational sacrifice through employee’s trust in supervisor. Colleague humor has a positive and indirect influence on employee’s altruism behavior, organizational links, organizational fit and organizational sacrifice through employee’s trust in colleagues.
