workers of 13 companies were sampled, of which 281 were returned, and 224
were used for analysis after data cleaning. Both descriptive and inferential
statistics were employed for data analysis. To estimate parameters of proposed
research model, covariance structure analysis were used.
Major conclusions of this study were as follows: First, causal model of this
study is suitable to empirical analysis on research variables. Second, learning
motivation of workers in large corporation has direct effect on informal learning
positively. However, empowerment and self-efficacy had not direct effect on

indirect effect on informal learning with full mediation effect of self-efficacy and
