Job crafting driven by personal initiative represents a novel type of work design, fostering stability while enhancing work performance. In numerous instances, this approach demonstrates effectiveness in boosting employee work engagement, largely due to the mediated autonomy in their work output and the increased meaningfulness that follows. The foundation of job crafting lies in employee support, which encourages working behaviors centered on proactive efforts to tailor and adjust work according to the individual employee's subjective needs. The existing literature emphasizes various strategies that mediate individual issues, which organizations attempt to promote to influence employee behavior, with job crafting being the anticipated outcome that results in enhanced work performance. Purpose of the article: The objective of the study is to pinpoint current research trends in the realm of job crafting, particularly regarding the enhancement of work performance. Methods: The Web of Science database was utilized to discover the primary research trajectories in the pertinent literature. The investigation focused on peer-reviewed articles published in journals classified in SSCI as Q1 and Q2. The final count of articles was determined using the PRISMA selection approach. Findings and value added: Through the examination of literary sources, we have recognized 4 significant research themes that the authors of the scientific articles explored. The most prevalent theme addressed was work engagement and its effect on job crafting. The second theme discussed was how job crafting contributes to the meaningfulness of work. The third theme explored was job crafting as a determinant of employee autonomy. The fourth identified theme was the impact of leadership and management support on job crafting behavior. The paper provides the reader with a systematic and concise compilation of available quality resources that can assist them in their personal research linked to job crafting and work performance. Additionally, the findings of our research could benefit companies aiming to enhance their employees’ work performance
