Özellikle yüksek performanslı iş sistemlerini uygulayan örgütlerde, yaptığı iş ile kendisini tanımlayan çalışanların göstereceği performansın örgütsel performansı artıracağı düşünülmektedir. Bu bağlamda ele alınan çalışmanın temel amacı yüksek performanslı iş sistemlerinin çalışan performansı üzerindeki etkisinde işe tutkunluğun aracılık rolünü incelemektir. Çalışmanın alana katkısı, yüksek performanslı iş sistemlerinin bireysel çıktılar üzerindeki etkisinin nedenselliğini açıklayan alt değişkenlerle ilgili çalışma boşluğunu doldurmaktır. Araştırma, İstanbul’da faaliyet gösteren farklı alanlardaki hizmet işletmelerinde görev yapan 314 çalışan üzerinde anket tekniği yardımıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırmada Yüksek Performanslı İş Sistemleri Ölçeği, İşe Tutkunluk Ölçeği, Bağlamsal Performans ve Yaratıcı Performans Ölçekleri olmak üzere dört farklı ölçek kullanılmıştır. Ölçüm aracında 47 ifade bulunmaktadır. Elde edilen verilerin analizi için SPSS ve AMOS programları aracılığıyla, faktör analizi, güvenilirlik analizi ve yapısal eşitlik modellemesinden yararlanılmıştır. Araştırma sonucunda, öne sürülen hipotezlerin desteklendiği görülmüştür. Çalışmanın temel amacı kapsamında araştırma bulguları, yüksek performanslı iş sistemlerinin çalışan performansı üzerindeki etkisinde işe tutkunluğun kısmi aracılık etkisi olduğunu ortaya koymuştur.
