Voluntary Workplace Green Behaviors: A Study On White-Collar Employees

Abstract

In this study, it was aimed to determine whether voluntary workplace green behaviors differ according to demographic variables or not. For this purpose, after the theoretical part of the study, findings, conclusion and discussion part were given. In this study, 302 white-collar employees in Istanbul were included. To distribute the data of the study, an online questionnaire was used. The analysis of the data was evaluated in SPSS 21.0 program. To report the data, minimum, maximum, mean, standard deviation, frequency and percentage were used. To see the normal distribution of the data, Shapiro-Wilk test and graphical analyzes, Cronbach alpha for internal consistency were applied. Also independent groups t-test for evaluations between two groups and one-way variance analysis for evaluations between more than two groups were calculated. Statistical significance was accepted as p<0.05. It was determined that there was no statistically significant difference with gender (p=0.245, p>0.05); marital status (p=0.360, p>0.05); education levels (p=0.497, p>0.05). It was found that there was statistically significant difference according to age (p=0.001, p<0.05); working time in the profession (p=0.011, p<0.05); and working time in the institution (p=0.013, p<0.05). Because relatively few studies in the literature was determined, it is thought that our study will contribute to the organizational behavior field and also to other researchers in the future.

İŞ YERİNDE GÖNÜLLÜ YEŞİL DAVRANIŞLAR: BEYAZ YAKALILAR ÜZERİNDE BİR ÇALIŞMA

Abstract

Bu çalışmada, iş yerinde gönüllü yeşil davranışların demografik değişkenler üzerinde farklılaşıp farklılaşmadığını belirlemek hedeflenmiştir. Bu hedefe yönelik olarak, çalışmanın teorik kısmının ardından çalışma bulguları, sonuç ve tartışma kısmına yer verilmiştir. Çalışmaya İstanbul ilindeki 302 beyaz yakalı çalışan dahil edilmiştir. Çalışmanın verilerinin dağıtılmasında çevrim içi ortamda anket formundan yararlanılmıştır. Verilerin analizi SPSS 21.0 programında değerlendirilmiştir. Veriler raporlanırken minimum, maksimum, ortalama, standart sapma, sıklık ve yüzde kullanılmıştır. Verilerin normal dağılıma uygunlukları Shapiro-Wilk testi ve grafiksel incelemeler, iç tutarlılık belirlemek adına Cronbach alpha hesaplaması sonrasında, iki grup arası değerlendirmelerde bağımsız gruplar t-testi ve ikiden fazla gruplar arası değerlendirmelerde tek yönlü varyans analizi uygulanmıştır. İstatistiksel anlamlılık p<0.05 olarak kabul edilmiştir. İş yerinde gönüllü yeşil davranışların cinsiyete (p=0,245, p>0,05); medeni duruma (p=0,360, p>0,05); eğitim düzeylerine (p=0,497, p>0,05); göre istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark olmadığı belirlenmiştir. Yaşa (p=0,001, p<0,05); meslekte çalışma süresi (p=0,011, p<0,05); ve mevcut iş yerinde çalışma süresine (p=0,013, p<0,05); göre istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark tespit edilmiştir. Çalışmanın literatürde göreceli olarak az sayıda çalışılan bir konu olması sebebiyle örgütsel davranış alanına ve diğer araştırmacılara katkı sağlayacağı düşünülmektedir.
