'In theory, it should be good when organizations make any effort to help improve worker well-being.' Here's why the reality is so different, explains tony_m_evans
Why do people react negatively to mindfulness training and other well-intentioned offers of help? In theory, it should be good when organizations make any effort to help improve worker well-being. Isn’t an imperfect solution better than no solution at all? Research from
in the area of ultimatum bargaining suggests that people react negatively when they perceive an offer of help as being unfairly small. Giving a little help can be seen as worse than giving no help at all., when it comes to money, more is better and something is better than nothing. People should prefer $200 instead of $100 and $1 instead of $0. But things become more complicated in social situations. When there are other people involved, people also care about the fairness of what they receive.
Research on the two-person ultimatum game illustrates the importance of fairness. In the ultimate game, one player receives a sum of money and proposes how that money should be shared. The other player can either accept or reject the proposal. If the responder accepts, the game ends and both players receive the proposed outcomes. If the responder rejects, then both players get nothing. Rejection, in the ultimatum game, is the nuclear option.
A responder who only cares about money should be happy to accept any proposal that results in a payout. Accepting a small offer should be better than rejecting it . But this isn’t what happens in real life. Almost all responders are willing to accept fair proposals. But responders also care about fairness, and they will reject unfair proposals. Most people would rather have nothing at all than accept an unfair offer .
