Abstract
Research indicates that contact with nature at work has beneficial effects on employees. We examine the effects of daily contact with nature before and after work on beginning of day employee affect and work effort later in the day. Our results indicate that exposure to nature before work positively affects employees’ beginning of day moods and subsequent work effort. Prior evening contact with nature also positively related to beginning of workday affect and subsequent work effort, but only for employees with high levels of nature connectedness—an individual difference that relates to individuals’ innate connection to the natural world.
