Abstract

In the health sector, violent situations have led to
the advancement of prevention policies and practices for employees working
efficiently. The condition of the hospital, the adequacy of resources, the
presence of conflicts between employees, and the management style make happy or
unhappy employees that causes them to behave positively or negatively. The aim
of the study is to determine the effect of the workplace conditions, violence
prevention policies and practices, organizational constraints and conflicts
between employees on employee job performance, dimensioned as counterproductive
work behavior (CWB) and organizational citizenship behavior (OCB). A survey on
the permanent nurses and health officers in a hospital was conducted, and a
developed model was tested using structural equational modeling. The result partially
corresponds to the model in that a violence prevention climate in the workplace
and constraints within the organization affect well-being, OCB and CWB. As the
most important dissimilarity from the literature, organizational constraints
positively affect organizational citizenship behavior. This result can be
explained that most work should be completed immediately regardless of what
happens in the health sector. The results are discussed, and suggestions are
presented.
