Meaning and humility at work in the equation of religious orientation and materialistic personality

Öz

An important aspect of human life involves engaging directly or indirectly with work-related processes. Work plays a significant role in self-awareness and in living with a defined purpose. Given its importance, the aim was to understand how religious orientation and materialistic personality traits influence employees' perceptions of the meaning at work (MOW). Additionally, the study explores the impact of the MOW on humility behavior in the workplace. A quantitative approach was adopted, with data collected through surveys from 445 employees in the Çankaya district of Ankara. Data were collected using convenience sampling, and exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses, as well as structural equation modeling, were conducted. Results show that religious orientation and materialistic personality traits (excluding nongenerosity) are key factors in explaining the MOW. Both intrinsic and extrinsic religious orientations have a similar impact on the MOW. Materialistic traits, such as envy, negatively influence the MOW, whereas preservation has a positive effect. Moreover, finding meaning in the workplace has been found to foster humility. These findings are significant for companies aiming to cultivate a prosocial organizational climate.
