| Summary: | Abstract: Despite growing interest in employee well-being, the field lacks work-related well-being measures suitable for use in multinational corporations where English is the lingua franca. To address this gap, we assessed the structural and convergent validity of English versions of the Index for Psychological Well-Being at Work (IPWBW), the Satisfaction with Work Scale (SWWS), and the 10-item Affective Well-being at Work (D-FAW) scale in a sample of professionals from multinational corporations (N = 378). After refining some items, confirmatory factor analysis supported a second-order model of the IPWBW, comprising a higher-order factor and five first-order subdimensions. The SWWS was best represented by a unidimensional model. The 10-item D-FAW, with three discrete first-order factors for negative affect items and a single positive affect factor, including response bias factors, best fit the data. Correlations supported convergent validity. With some reservations and adjustments, these measures appear suitable for assessing employee well-being in multinational corporate settings.
