Abstract

Introduction: Since faculty members are among the most important assets of higher education institutions, surveying and identifying factors associated with these sources that can be effective on their performance and stress have gained increasing importance. Accordingly, the present study was conducted to survey the relationship between personal accountability and job performance considering the mediating effect of skills and job stress among employees of the University of Shiraz.

Methods: The statistical population of this study consisted of all of Shiraz University staff who had high school diploma, which included 726 individuals. A sample of 256 persons was chosen using stratified random sampling method. The research method was descriptive-correlative. Data were collected using Hochwarter et al. (2005) accountability, job performance (1990) of Paterson, House and Rizzo’s (1972) Job tension and political skills, and Ferris et al. (2005) satisfaction standard questionnaires. The structural equation modeling (SEM) was used to study the relationship between the latent variables and the measured ones in conceptual model.

Results: The results showed that job performance was affected by personal accountability; employees who had political skills had more accountability, which significantly affected their job performance. Job tension had a significant negative correlation with job performance.

Conclusions: According to the results, political skills and job tension affected the relationship of individual’s accountability with job performance. The results put emphasis on the necessity of reassessing the mediating roles of political skills and job tension in surveying the causal relationships of accountability with job performance.

Volume 7, Issue 2 (Iranian Journal of Ergonomics 2019)
Abstract

Background and Objectives: The ethic-based culture is the predictor of ethical behavior and organizational citizenship behavior. Ethical culture enhances our awareness of our activities and can also increase our awareness of our bilateral commitments to the organization and therefore focus on what is important in an organizational setting. The present research aimed at investigating the relationship between the ethical culture with a tendency to ethical behavior and organizational citizenship behavior by examining the mediating role of the person’s organization in the staff of Urmia University.
Methods: This descriptive correlation study is a structural equation modeling model. The statistical population of this study consisted of all 503 high school graduates of Urmia University in 2018. Based on the stratified random sampling method, 217 individuals were selected. Standard questionnaires were used to collect information. Data analysis was performed using descriptive indexes and structural equation modeling method.
Results: Based on the results there is a positive and significant relationship between ethical culture with ethical behavior and organizational citizenship behavior. Also, the direct and significant impact of ethical culture on the individual-organizational adaptability was confirmed. The results also showed that the individual-organizational adaptability has a positive and significant relationship with ethical and organizational citizenship behaviors. In addition, the role of mediation of this variable (individual-organizational adaptability) in the relation between the ethical culture with two other variables (ethical and organizational citizenship behaviors) was also confirmed based on the findings of the research.
Conclusion: Based on the findings, it can be concluded that ethical culture directly promotes personal-organizational fit. In addition, confirming the mediating role of the individual-organization fit ethical culture has an indirect, positive and significant effect on ethical behavior and organizational citizenship behavior.

Abstract
Background & Objectives: Ethical atmosphere and burnout of employees is an important issue for the management of the organization and management should play a key role in improving the performance of employees and the organization. The present study aimed to model the structural relationship between ethical atmosphere and emotional exhaustion with job satisfaction and turnover intention.

The statistical population includes 125 employees of the West Azerbaijan Gas Company who were surveyed by census method. The data collection tool was a questionnaire. Confirmatory factor analysis and Cronbach's alpha method were used to evaluate the validity and reliability of measuring instruments. Structural equation modeling using Smart PLS software was done to analyze the data.

Also, emotional exhaustion can explain more than 44% of the changes in job satisfaction and 18% of the changes in the desire to leave the job. The coefficient of morale's impact on job satisfaction with emotional exhaustion was also 0.07. And the impact coefficient of the ethical atmosphere on the desire to leave the job with an emotional exhaustion was also -0.09.
Conclusion: Improving the ethical atmosphere of the organization and reducing the emotional burnout of employees leads to job satisfaction and commitment of employees, and as a result, the performance of employees and the organization improves.
