The limited empirical research on lateral cross-job retraining supports the idea that analysis of employee transferability of skills is related to retraining success in the new assignment. The present study extends this line of research by investigating retraining climate as an additional predictor of retraining success and as a moderator of the relationships between cross-job retraining time estimates and time to proficiency in the new assignment. Of the three climate dimensions studied, situational constraints (but not organizational support or supervisory support) exhibited the predicted direct and moderator effects.
