Abstract
Some researchers considered structural aspects of empowerment. Later researchers pointed to motivational-Psychological aspects. Necessity of appropriateness among abilities of job and employee lead to consider both approaches in parallel. aim of this paper is to provide a model to evaluate employee’s empowerment, in three dimensions:1)employee’s psychological empowerment, 2)actual structural empowerment,3)potential structural empowerment. Different combinations of these dimensions emerged eight areas that each one’s has its own unique empowerment policies. So, it will determine that employees are in jobs which are appropriate to their abilities? If not, what policies should be making to improve it?By applying this model, managers are able to spend organizational resources for improvementof different organization’s sectors. To indicate the application of model, a questionnaire which provided via experts advices, distributed among 13 different departments of an automotive company in Iran. Finally, some improvement policies suggested at micro and macro levels for each of eight areas.
