Abstract

Post-2000 employees are gradually becoming a new force in the workplace. They have unique value systems and workplace concepts. How to enhance the loyalty of post-2000 employees and reasonably guide their willingness to work overtime has become an important issue. The issue needs to be solved urgently. This research employs a questionnaire methodology to investigate the influence of employee loyalty on the willingness to work overtime among post-2000 employees. Additionally, the research examines the moderating role of salary satisfaction in this relationship. The results demonstrate that the coefficient of employee loyalty is 0.336, and the coefficient of salary satisfaction is 0.228. Furthermore, the significance of both coefficients is less than 0.001, which substantiates a positive correlation between the loyalty of post-2000 employees and their willingness to work overtime. The cross-term between employee loyalty and salary satisfaction is 0.112, indicating that salary satisfaction plays a positive moderating role in this relationship. Based on the research results, this paper argues that companies should improve the loyalty of post-2000 employees, optimize the salary system, and arrange overtime reasonably. Employees should integrate into the corporate culture, improve self-awareness, continuously learn and grow, and find a balance between work and personal life.
