İşyeri Maneviyatının Örgütlerdeki Çalışanlara Etkileri Üzerine Bir Araştırma

Öz

Çalışmanın amacı, işyeri maneviyatı ve algılanan örgütsel destek değişkenlerinin örgütsel vatandaşlık ve iş kontrolü değişkenleri üzerindeki etkilerini araştırmaktır. İşyeri maneviyatı, çalışanların iş süreçleri boyunca deneyimlerini teşvik eden ve kendilerine çalışma arzusu kazandıracak bir kültür organizasyonundaki varlıktır. İş kontrolü, bir çalışanın karar verme yetkisini, bilgi ve becerilerini kullanma fırsatlarını ve bir etkinliğe katılma fırsatlarını ifade eder. Örgütsel destek organizasyonu çalışanlarının örgütün varlığını güvenle ve arkasında hissettiğini algıladı. Her kuruluşta işyeri maneviyatının ve örgütsel desteğin varlığı, çalışanları örgütün bir parçası haline getirir - vatandaşlar - ve iş kontrollerinin sağlıklı olmasını sağlar. Üretim sektöründe bulunan gıda firmalarında çalışan 394 idari personelden 5'li likert ölçeğinde sorular içeren bir anket toplanmıştır. Araştırma modeli kapsamında elde edilen veriler IBM SPSS 25 ve SPSS Process V3 eklentisi ile analiz edilmiştir. Ölçeğin Doğrulayıcı Faktör Analizi LISREL paket programı ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Analiz sonucunda, işyeri maneviyatının iş kontrolü ve örgütsel vatandaşlık ve algılanan örgütsel desteğin işyeri maneviyat-iş kontrolü ve işyeri medikal etkisi üzerindeki etkileri maneviyat-örgütsel vatandaşlık ilişkilerinde ortaya çıkmıştır.
