Abstract: The majority of research on empowerment has focused on the individual job incumbent's psychological experience of empowerment and link this with various work-related outcomes. Work context capable of promoting empowerment has been neglected by researchers. Extensive literature survey explored information sharing, autonomy through boundaries, team responsibility, reward system, workplace independence and flexibility and skill acquisition and development as work context (managerial structures and practices) and conceptualized as empowerment climate construct. Regression analysis indicated autonomy through boundaries has the greatest influence on empowerment, followed by team accountability, workplace independence and flexibility reward system, information sharing and then skill acquisition and development.
