Abstract The present study analyzes behavioral and emotional reactions to envy inwork groups.
Amultivariate model of the effect of envy on distress, cohesion and outcomes wastested. The study
sample was drawn from 385 respondents in 81 working groups in 25 business organizations. The
results showed that envy was directly associatedwith group performance, distress, and cohesion.
Envy was indirectly related to job satisfaction via distress and via cohesion, and indirectly
associated to organizational citizenship behaviour (OCB) via cohesion. The implications ofthese
findings are discussed, and suggestions for future research are outlined.
