Achieving this largely depends on how much support organizations give to its employees. Employees who feel appreciated by their organizations tend to approach their work with passion and enthusiasm, which significantly contributes to their psychological well-being. Based on these findings, the aim of the study is to explore the mediation function of work engagement within the relation between perceived organizational support and psychological well-being. A survey developed to achieve this aim is carried out with face-to-face participation of the employees (340) of two private hospitals in a province located in the Southeast of Turkey. The study’s hypotheses are assessed utilizing structural equation modeling. According to the first model, psychological well-being is positively impacted by perceived organizational support. In the second model, psychological well-being is positively impacted by work engagement, which is positively influenced by perceived organizational support. Pursuant to the third model, the relationship between psychological well-being and perceived organizational support is partially mediated by work engagement. Based on these findings, employees who experience support from their organizations are more engaged at work, which improves their psychological well-being.}, number={48}, publisher={Süleyman Demirel University}
