Abstract

The aim of the research is to examine the mediating role of job satisfaction in the effect of workplace happiness on employee performance. The data of the research were obtained from 395 health personnel working in the health sector. Questionnaire method was used as a data collection tool in the research. Happiness at work, employee performance and job satisfaction scales were used to collect data. Frequency analysis, correlation analysis and structural equation model were used in the analysis of the obtained data. According to the correlation analysis carried out within the scope of the research, it has been determined that there is a significant relationship between happiness at work, employee performance and job satisfaction. After the scale structures were verified and the goodness-of-fit values of the model were above the determined limits, the research hypotheses were tested with the structural equation model. As a result of the hypothesis tests conducted with the structural equation model, it has been determined that job satisfaction has a mediating effect on the effect of happiness at work on employee performance.
