Abstract

The aim of this study is to analyze the effects of organizational identification and life satisfaction on presenteeism. The data needed to analyze the effects of organizational identification and life satisfaction on presenteeism were collected by survey technique. The sample of the study was selected among the employees working in the manufacturing industry enterprises operating in Kayseri Organized Industrial Zone. In the selection of the sample, convenience sampling method was used. As a result of the application, 413 usable questionnaire forms were obtained. As a result of the analyzes, it was found that organizational identification has a significant and positive effect on presenteeism and its sub-dimension, completing work. In contrast, analyses have shown that organizational identification does not have any meaningful effect on avoiding distraction, another sub-dimension of presenteeism. In addition, as a result of the analyzes, it was found that life satisfaction has a significant and positive effect on presenteeism and completing work, which is its sub-dimension. In contrast, the analyses found that life satisfaction did not have any significant effect on avoiding distraction, another sub-dimension of presenteeism. Finally, theoretical and managerial inferences were included in the light of the research findings and suggestions for the researchers who will work on the subject in the future were listed.
