İNSANA YAKIŞIR İŞİN YAŞAM DOYUMU, ÇALIŞMA İRADESİ VE İŞİN ANLAMI ÜZERİNDEKİ ETKİSİ

Çalışmada insana yakışır işin alt boyutları olan güvenli çalışma koşulları, sağlık hizmetlerine erişim, yeterli ücret, boş zaman ve dinleme ile kurumsal değerlerin; Yaşam doyumu, çalışma iradesi ve işin anlamı üzerindeki etkisi araştırılmıştır. Analiz sonuçlarına göre; insana yakışır işin alt boyutları yaşam doyumunun %26’sını, çalışma iradesinin %27’sini, işin anlamını %24,5 oranında açıklamıştır. Alt boyutlardan kurumsal değerlerin yaşam doyumuna, boş zaman ve dinlenmenin çalışma iradesine ve yeterli ücretin işin anlamına etki etmediği bulunmuştur. Yaşam doyumuna en fazla etki edenin yeterli ücret (β=.279, p<0.05), çalışma iradesine en fazla etki edenin güvenli çalışma koşulları (β=.406, p<0.05) ve işin anlamına en fazla etki edeninse kurumsal değerler olduğu (β=.513, p<0.05) saptanmıştır.

THE IMPACTS OF DECENT WORK ON LIFE SATISFACTION, WORK VOLUTION, AND MEANING OF WORK

The present study explored the impacts of decent work subscales - safe working conditions, access to healthcare, adequate compensation, free time and rest, and organizational values - on life satisfaction, work volition, and meaning of work. The findings revealed that all decent work subscales explained 26% of life satisfaction, 27% of work volition, and 24.5% of the meaning of work. Interestingly, it was discovered that organizational values, free time and rest, and adequate compensation did not significantly affect life satisfaction, work volition, and the meaning of work, respectively. It was also found that while adequate compensation affected life satisfaction the most (β = .279, p < 0.05), it was the case between safe working conditions and work volition (β = .406, p < 0.05). Finally, the organizational values subscale was found to affect the meaning of work the most (β = .513, p < 0.05).
