Araştırma amacı doğrultusunda, Ankara Büyükşehir Belediyesinden 555 ve Eskişehir Odunpazarı Belediyesi çalışanlarından 92, Ankara’da AFAD Başkanlığı Merkez Binasında çalışanlardan 98 ve İstanbul’da ise ASİS A.Ş. çalışanlarından 98 katılımcı olmak üzere toplam 843 kişiden anket aracılığıyla elde edilen veriler “faktör analizi, korelasyon analizi ve Yapısal Eşitlik Modellemesi analizleri” yöntemiyle değerlendirilmiştir.

Araştırma sonucunda elde edilen bulgulara göre; işe adanma, örgütsel özdeşleşme ve performans algısı değişkenleri arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı ilişkilerin bulunduğu tespit edilmiş ve araştırma sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Araştırma modelindeki bağımsız değişkenlerin (işe adanma, örgütsel özdeşleşme) bağımlı değişkenleri (performans) etkileme düzeyleri ile bağımsız ve bağımlı değişkenlerin kendi aralarındaki etkileşim düzeyleri açıklanmıştır.

EXTENDED ABSTRACT

In today’s increasingly competitive environment, it is becoming more and more difficult to ensure the continuity of trained and qualified personnel in the organization, as well as providing qualified personnel or providing additional qualifications for the personnel. One of the most important reasons for this is the ability to communicate very quickly all over the world, thanks to the developing communication technologies and being informed instantly of all kinds of opportunities in the world.

In this competitive environment, qualified personnel turn to new organizations, new cities, countries and continents, by spreading towards the opportunities offered to them. In this case, in addition to providing qualified personnel or training to personnel for qualification, it has become essential for organizations to take measures and develop methods, in order to ensure that these personnel are identified and dedicated to their work and organisations.

It is evident in the results of research that employing highly qualified, resourceful, intelligent, strong, durable and diligent employees without dedication to organizations does not provide a great advantage. For example, research in the United States has estimated that the annual cost of economic loss from insufficient or never dedicated staff is around $ 250 to350 million. This figure corresponds to approximately 2% of the US GNP (Gross National Product) at that time (Attridge, 2009: 387). If so, this issue is worth considering.

For those reasons, it is mandatory to acquire and train qualified personnel, and to take measures and develop new methods to ensure that employees identify with their organizations and are dedicated to their work. In the literature survey within this framework, it is observed that in the last 10 years, there has been an intensive study of these concepts. Although there are some researches, especially on the “employee engagement and performance perception” and “organizational identification and performance perception interactions”, that there has not been any research on “the influence of relations between employee engagement and organizational identification on the performance perception”, has shown the need to research this subject. Therefore, it is thought that this research will contribute to fill an emptiness in the area.

In light of the explanations above, in this study, concepts of employee engagement, organizational identification and performance perception are examined theoretically in the first, second and third sections. In the fourth section of the study, how the research is conducted and which method is used to analyzing the data are mentioned. In the last section, there are general evaluations and the results of research obtained with the aim of the study and discussions.

In this context, the main purpose of this study is to determine the relationship of employee engagement and organizational identification’s effects on their performance. For the purpose of the research, the data obtained from questionnaires filled out by total 843 employees, working in the Greater Municipality of Ankara 555, in the Eskişehir Odunpazarı Municipality 92, in the Ankara Prime Ministry of AFAD 98 and in the İstanbul ASİS Corporation 98 were evaluated by means of factor, correlation and SEM analysis.

According to the findings obtained as a result of the research; statistically significant correlations are found among employee engagement, organizational identification and performance perception variables and the research results have been reached. The level of influence of independent variables (employee engagement, organizational identification) on dependent variables (performance perception), and the level of interaction between independent and dependent variables in the research model are explained.
