İşin ve örgütün gereklerine uygun olarak duyguların yönetilmesi duygusal emek kavramı ile açıklanmaktadır. Özellikle güvenlik gücü personeli açısından hizmet sunduğu mağdur ve suçlu bireyler ve elinde bulunan kamu gücü gözetildiğinde, uygun duygusal emek stratejisinin seçilmesi kritik bir süreçtir. Nitekim duygusal emek örgütsel performans ve çalışanın psikolojik sağlığı üzerinde olumsuz birçok etkiye sahiptir. Bu kapsamda duygusal emeğin güvenlik örgütleri ve personeli üzerindeki etkilerinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bu amaca uygun olarak çeşitli indekslerde taranan (Ulakbim, Scopus, Web of Science ve Proquest) yayınlardan ampirik sonuçlar sunan 24 çalışma ayrıntılı bir şekilde ele alınmıştır. Güvenlik güçlerinin etkinliğinin ve performanslarının arttırılmasına ve duygusal emeğin etkilerin azaltılmasına yönelik somut önerilerde bulunulmuştur. Çalışmanın sonuçlarının kaos ve düzen arasındaki ince çizgide önemli bir rol üstlenen güvenlik güçlerinin sosyo-duygusal yeteneklerinin geliştirilmesi, bireysel ve örgütsel performanslarının artırılmasına yönelik farkındalığı artırırken, duygusal emek literatürüne önemli katkılarının olacağı değerlendirilmektedir.

The Effect of Emotional Labor on the Performance of Security Forces: A Conceptual and Literature Focused Review

Öz

The management of emotions in accordance with the requirements of the job and the organization is explained by the concept of Emotional Labor. Choosing the appropriate emotional labor strategy is a critical process, especially for the security force personnel, considering the victims and criminals they serve, and the public power in their hands. Emotional labor has many negative effects on organizational performance and the psychological health of the employee. In this context, it is aimed to examine the effects of emotional labor on security organizations and their personnel. For this purpose, 24 studies presenting empirical results from publications in various indexes (Ulakbim, Scopus, Web of Science, and Proquest) were discussed in detail. Suggestions were made to increase the effectiveness and performance of the security forces and to reduce the effects of emotional labor. It is considered that the results of the study will contribute significantly to the emotional labor literature, while raising awareness about the development of the socio-emotional abilities of the security forces, who play an important role in the fine line between chaos and order, and increase their individual and organizational performance.
