Drawing on the theories of planned behavior, help-seeking, and distributive justice, we propose a framework that focuses initially on the more proximal factors that influence an employee's likelihood of participating in such programs. We then examine the role of organization-based situational characteristics in shaping both personal and normative assessments and describe the implications of our framework for researchers and practitioners.10aManagement1 aVeiga, J., F.1 aBaldridge, David1 aEddleston, K., A. u/biblio/toward-understanding-employee-reluctance-participate-family-friendly-programs-0
