Creating sustainable employment—that is, a condition in which employees remain productive but also
enjoy good health and well-being—is a challenge for many organizations. Work environment factors are
major contributors to these employee outcomes. The job demands–resources model categorizes work
environment factors into demands versus resources, which are, respectively, detrimental versus beneficial to
employee outcomes. Although conceptualized as workplace factors, these job characteristics have been
studied mostly at an individual level. Therefore, their roles at the supraindividual level (i.e., any work-unit
level above an individual, such as group or organization) for employee productivity, health, and well-being
remains unclear. The aim of this systematic review is to synthesize evidence concerning job resources and
job demands at the supraindividual level and their relationships to productivity, health, and work-related
well-being. The review covers articles published through December 2018. In total, 202 papers met the
inclusion criteria. We found stronger support for the beneficial roles of supraindividual job resources than
for the detrimental roles of job demands for productivity and work-related well-being. Regarding health,
most of the relationships were found to be nonsignificant. To conclude, this review demonstrates that, at the
supraindividual level, the motivational path has received more support than the health impairment path.
Based on these findings, we provide recommendations for further research and practice
