Abstract

Çevre sorunlarının giderek arttığı ve kaynakların bilinçsizce tüketildiği günümüzde işletmelerde yeşil örgüt kültürü ve örgütsel değişkenler arasındaki ilişkinin incelenmesi yöneticilere insan kaynakları stratejileri geliştirmede önemli bilgiler sunacaktır. Bu araştırmanın amacı imalat işletmelerinde yeşil örgüt kültürü, örgütsel bağlılık ve iş tatmini arasındaki ilişkilerin incelenmesidir. Bu kapsamda araştırmada doğrudan etkilere ilişkin hipotezlerin yanı sıra iş tatmininin aracılık rolü de incelenmiştir. Araştırmanın evrenini Gaziantep’deki imalat işletmeleri çalışanları oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmada tesadüfi olmayan yöntemlerden kolayda örneklem yöntemiyle belirlenen 396 katılımcı ile yüz yüze anket yapılmıştır. Elde edilen veriler PLS yapısal eşitlik modeliyle analiz edilmiştir. Analizler sonucunda; yeşil örgüt kültürünün iş tatmini ve örgütsel bağlılık üzerinde anlamlı pozitif etkisi olduğu sonuçlarına ulaşılmıştır. Araştırmada ayrıca iş tatmininin örgütsel bağlılık üzerinde anlamlı pozitif etkisi olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Araştırmada son olarak yeşil örgüt kültürünün örgütsel bağlılık üzerindeki etkisinde iş tatmininin aracılık rolü olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Araştırmanın sadece belirli bir coğrafyada ve sadece imalat işletmelerinde gerçekleştirilmesi araştırmanın başlıca sınırlılıkları arasında yer almaktadır.
