This paper examines the impact of ambient air pollution (AAP) on employees' performance through a survey of outdoor employees in the pharmaceutical industry of Pakistan. The analysis shows that AAP has a significant negative impact on employees' performance, and this impact is partially mediated by anxiety.
This paper aims to examine the direct and indirect impact of ambient air pollution (AAP) on employees' performance. This study has used cross sectional survey design to collect the data from the outdoor employees of the pharmaceutical industry of Pakistan. The data were collected in time lags from 299. Partial least squares- structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) approach was applied to analyze the data. The results show that AAP has a significant negative impact on the employees' performance, and anxiety partially mediates the association between AAP and employees' performance. This study reveals that AAP brings anxiety among outdoor employees, which in turn decreases their working performance. The implications, limitations, and future research directions are presented in the last section of this study.
