Öz

Bu çalışmanın amacı otel işletmeleri örnekleminde mobbing, iş tatmini ve işten ayrılma niyeti arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemektir. Çalışmada veri toplama aracı olarak anket kullanılmıştır. Ankara ilinde bulunan dört ve beş yıldızlı otellerde gerçekleştirilen çalışma sonucunda 253 anket elde edilebilmiştir. Verilerin geçerlilik ve güvenilirlik analizleri yapılmıştır. Verilerin analizinde tanımlayıcı istatistiksel yöntemler, korelasyon ve regresyon analizleri kullanılmıştır. Araştırmanın sonuçlarına göre, çalışanların mobbing algısı ve işten ayrılma niyetleri daha düşük, iş doyumu düzeyleri daha yüksektir. Mobbing ile iş tatmini arasında ters ve işten ayrılma niyeti arasında doğrusal yönde bir ilişki bulunmaktadır. İş tatmini ile işten ayrılma niyeti arasında da ters yönlü bir ilişki vardır. Mobbing, işten ayrılma niyeti üzerinde olumlu yönde bir etkiye sahip olmasına karşılık iş tatmini üzerinde olumsuz bir etkisi bulunmaktadır. Çalışmanın sonuçlarına göre, çalışanların mobbing algısı, düşük seviyede olmakla birlikte özel yaşama yönelik yıldırma, görevin yapılmasına yönelik yıldırma ve kişisel gelişimi engellemeye yönelik yıldırma faktörlerinden daha fazla etkilenmektedir
