Abstract

Introduction: The quality of work life is one of the main issues in human resource management that is related to job satisfaction, resignation, turnover rate, personality and job stress. The present study was conducted to investigate the quality of working life in relation to stress levels and participation in health care workers in cities.

Materials and Methods: The present cross-sectional study was conducted on 124 random health care workers employed in centers across the city of Hamadan. Walton's quality of work life questionnaire, Belcher's participation questionnaire and a stress questionnaire were used for achieving the study objectives. The Pearson test was used for determining the correlation between the variables.

Results: The results showed that 40.3% of the subjects reported their overall participation rate to be low, 38.7%% reported it to be moderate and 21% reported it to be high. In addition, 73.4% of the subjects reported low levels of perceived stress and 26.6% reported it to be very high. The findings of the study showed a significant positive correlation between participation and the quality of work life (r=0.33 and p<0.001). The quality of work life and stress were also found to have a negative correlation (p=0.015 and r=-0.219).

Conclusion: Through understanding participation and levels of stress among the employees and through presenting and implementing appropriate strategies for reducing stress and encouraging participation, the quality of work life and ultimately the productivity of health care organizations can be increased.

Abstract

Introduction: Improving the quality of work life requires a certain organizational culture that supports creativity, autonomy, accountability, and employee participation. The present study investigated the relationship between organizational culture and employees’ quality of work life.

Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional and correlational study was conducted in 2015. A total of 145 staff members of all deputies of Hamadan University of Medical Sciences were selected. Organizational culture and quality of work life were measured using previously designed self-administered questionnaires. Items of the questionnaires were scared on a Likert scale. Pearson correlation coefficients were calculated to analyze the data. All analyses were performed by SPSS.

Results: A moderate level of organizational culture was detected in this study (mean score = 3.04). Organizational culture and its components had significant positive correlations with quality of work life (r = 0.64; P = 0.001). Linear regression analysis confirmed the significant positive effects of organizational culture on quality of work life.

Conclusion: Based on the findings of the present study, modification of organizational culture and its components is necessary for improving personnel’s quality of work life, job satisfaction, and participation. Development of appropriate organizational culture can ensure higher quality of work life among university staff and enhance the quality and productivity of academic services.

Abstract

Background: Focusing on the organizational conflict and the depression in the main trainers of an educational system, the faculty members are very necessary because the increased negative organizational conflicts lead to a lower public health. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between the job depression and the organizational conflict in the faculty members. 
Methods: The present study was a correlation type research and the statistical population included seven faculty members of the department/school/institute of medical sciences in the city of Hamedan with 244 faculty members as per the census of 2017. For the collection of the data, the Goldberg and Hiller questionnaire was used for measuring the depression and the organizational conflict inventory. Using descriptive statistics such as Pearson's correlation coefficient and regression analysis, the data were analyzed for modeling by the SPSS Statistics 24 software.
Results: The mean scores of the depression, the organizational conflict, the conflict with the manager, the similar degrees, and the control were 0.8, 22, 6.7, 7.4, and 7.9 respectively. The results showed a significant and positive correlation between the depression and the organizational conflict (P=0.001, r=0.42). Such correlations were also observed in the two dimensions of conflict with the others (P=0.001, r=0.62) and conflict with the control (P=0.001, r=0.43). However, no significant correlation was observed in the dimension of conflict with the manager.
 Conclusion: The different factors of conflict studied in the society must be focused on, addressed, and improved in light of the positive and direct correlations observed between the organizational conflict and the job depression.

Data were collected by two questionnaires: "Peter Senge Learning Organization" and "Resourceful Total Quality Management" questionnaires. Data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, t-test and ANOVA at 95% confidence level, Pearson correlation coefficient and regression analysis using Spss16 software.
Results: The results showed a mean of Personal Mastery of 23.1 and a positive and significant correlation between Personal Mastery and the consequences of improving quality and  productivity (p<0.001). Also, there was a significant difference in Personal Mastery in both sexes (p<0.005). But this difference was not evident in terms of degree and field of study.
Conclusion: Productivity in the service sector depends, rather than depends on technology and other factors, on human resources and factors affecting it.

Abstract

Background and Objectives: One of the major challenges that managers face in competitive organizations is the improvement of the performance and productivity of the organization and understanding the factors affecting them. The promotion of the organizational performance requires managers to focus on the organizational justice and employees’ motivation at work. The purpose of this study is to determine the relationship between organizational justice and organizational performance in the Health Center of Kermanshah Province.
Methods: The present work was a descriptive-analytic and correlation study. This study was performed on 166 employees of the Health Center of Kermanshah in summer 2019, selected by random sampling. Data were collected using two standard questionnaires: the organizational justice of Nihoff and Morman (1993), and the organizational performance of Hersey and Goldsmith (1980). Reliability of the questionnaires was assessed by the pilot study and Cronbach's alpha coefficient. Data analysis was performed using SPSS 16 software.
Results: The results showed that the average scores of the organizational justice and the organizational performance are 54.84± 16.92 and 140.54± 18.66, respectively. According to the results of Pearson correlation coefficient, there is significant relationship between the organizational justice and its dimensions with organizational performance (P<0.001). However, the procedural justice has the more potential to predict the organizational performance.
Conclusion: The organizational justice is an important variable, strongly affecting the organizational performance. Therefore, managers need to pay particular attention to the justice as an important motivating factor for employees in order to improve the organizational performance and productivity.
