A Study on the Effect of Job Stress on the Relationship Between Life Satisfaction and Creativity in the Workplace

Abstract

Increasing competition, heavy workloads and uncertainties in today's work environment are causing employees to experience higher levels of work-related stress. This generally has negative consequences for life satisfaction and creativity in working life. This study was designed to highlight this issue and contribute to theory and practice. In this context, the effects of life satisfaction and work stress on creativity in the workplace were examined using quantitative research methods. To this end, a survey was conducted with 201 employees. The research findings reveal that employees' life satisfaction significantly and positively affects the creative behaviours they exhibit at work. However, it was determined that the direct effect of work stress on creativity is not statistically significant. However, moderator effect analyses showed that work stress weakens the relationship between life satisfaction and creativity. In situations of high work stress in particular, the contribution of life satisfaction to creativity decreases. Conversely, when stress levels are low, life satisfaction's supportive role in creativity becomes more apparent. These results suggest that, while life satisfaction is crucial for developing employees' creative potential, high work stress significantly limits this positive effect. Therefore, organisations must focus on human resources practices that increase life satisfaction, improve working conditions and develop strategies to reduce stress, in order to encourage creative thinking and innovative behaviour.

Yaşam Tatmini ve Çalışma Yaşamında Yaratıcılık İlişkisinde İş Stresinin Etkisi Üzerine Bir Araştırma

Abstract

Günümüz iş ortamında artan rekabet, yoğun iş yükü ve belirsizlikler çalışanların iş stresi düzeylerini yükseltmekte; bu durum genel olarak yaşam tatmini ve çalışma yaşamında yaratıcılık üzerinde olumsuz sonuçlar doğurmaktadır. Bu durumu ortaya koyabilmek ve hem teoriye hem de uygulamaya katkı sunabilmek için bu çalışma tasarlanmıştır. Bu bağlamda yaşam tatmini ve iş stresinin çalışanların çalışma yaşamındaki yaratıcılık düzeyleri üzerindeki etkileri nicel araştırma yöntemi ile incelenmiştir. Bu amaçla 201 çalışan ile anket gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırma bulguları, çalışanların yaşam doyumunun iş yaşamında sergiledikleri yaratıcı davranışları anlamlı ve pozitif yönde etkilediğini ortaya koymaktadır. Buna karşın, iş stresinin yaratıcılık üzerindeki doğrudan etkisinin istatistiksel olarak anlamlı olmadığı belirlenmiştir. Ancak moderatör etki analizleri, iş stresinin yaşam tatmini ile yaratıcılık arasındaki ilişkiyi zayıflattığını göstermektedir. Özellikle iş stresinin yüksek olduğu durumlarda, yaşam tatmininin yaratıcılığa katkısı azalmakta; buna karşılık stres düzeyi düşük olduğunda yaşam tatmininin yaratıcılığı destekleyici rolü ortaya çıkmaktadır. Bu sonuçlar, yaşam tatmininin çalışanların yaratıcı potansiyellerini geliştirmede önemli bir psikolojik kaynak olduğunu, ancak yüksek iş stresinin bu olumlu etkinin etkisini önemli ölçüde sınırladığını göstermektedir. Dolayısıyla örgütlerin, yaratıcı düşünmeyi ve yenilikçi davranışları teşvik eden bir çalışma ortamı oluşturabilmek için çalışanların yaşam tatminini artırıcı insan kaynakları uygulamalarına odaklanması, çalışma koşullarını iyileştirmesi ve iş stresini azaltmaya yönelik stratejiler geliştirmesi büyük önem taşımaktadır.
