İşgörenlerin Örgütsel Sosyalizasyon Düzeylerinin İş Tutumlari Üzerindeki Etkisinin Belirlenmesine Yönelik Bir Araştirma

Abstract

İşe yeni başlayan işgörenlerin örgüte, işine ve içinde bulunduğu gruba uyum sağlayarak daha verimli bir şekilde çalışmalarına odaklanan örgütsel sosyalizasyon bu çalışmanın ana konusunu oluşturmaktadır. Örgüt, grup ve iş düzeyi olmak üzere üç farklı sosyalizasyon boyutunun işgörenlerin örgütsel bağlılık, iş tatmini, stres ve performans düzeyleri üzerindeki etkisinin belirlenmesi amacıyla yapılan bu çalışma Türkiye’de ilk 500 sanayi kuruluşu içerisinde yer alan bir holdingin demir çelik işletmesinde anket tekniği kullanılarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Sosyalizasyon boyutlarının ölçümünde Haueter ve diğerleri (2003) tarafından geliştirilen ölçeğin tercih edildiği anket çalışması doğrultusunda elde edilen verilerin analizinde SPSS 15.0 istatistiksel paket programı kullanılmıştır. Yapılan analiz doğrultusunda, işgörenlerin örgüt ve iş sosyalizasyon düzeylerinin örgütsel bağlılık, iş tatmini ve performans üzerinde anlamlı etkisi bulunurken, grup sosyalizasyon düzeyinin bu değişkenler ve sosyalizasyonun üç boyutunun iş stresi üzerinde anlamlı bir etkisinin bulunmadığı ortaya çıkmıştır
