Abstract: Detrimental behavior in the workplace such as turnover, absenteeism, and loss of productivity is a sign that employees have low well-being in the workplace. Employee well-being plays a crucial role in the company’s sustainability. One of the factors that can affect workplace well-being is job autonomy. This study aimed to determine the effect of job autonomy on workplace well-being. This study used a quantitative regression analysis. Respondents were 322 employees with accidental sampling technique. The results of this study indicated that there was a positive and significant effect of job autonomy on workplace well-being. The higher the job autonomy, the higher the well-being in the workplace. This study proves that job autonomy can increase the well-being of employees in the workplace. Companies are advised to give autonomy at work to increase well-being in the workplace.
