Abstract
The objective of this study is to investigate the impact of office automation systems on amotivation of employees through technostress by employing self-determination theory (SDT). Punjab Civil Secretariat employees were taken as the population for the research study. Data of 348 employees was collected through simple random sampling. Data were analyzed using correlation and multiple regression analysis. The results showed that office automation has a significant influence on technostress which further leads to amotivation in employees. Past research shows that the implementations of office automation systems are intended to influence employee motivation and organizational performance. Implementation of technology may result in competitive advantage, but implementation of technology is not enough to get the desired benefits unless technostress caused by technology implementation systems is managed properly. The current research has significant implications for researchers and policymakers by introducing a framework to study amotivation in government employees that can be linked to the implementation of office automation in public sector organizations.
