Özet

The aim of this paper, conducted in hospitals across Türkiye, is to investigate the relationship between organizational structure and job satisfaction, as well as to evaluate its impact on expectations and overall satisfaction. In this context, a study was carried out in hospitals operated by the Ministry of Health (MoH), universities, and private entities, examining how employees perceive the levels of formalization, centralization, complexity, and specialization that constitute the organizational structure, and how these factors influence their job satisfaction levels. We also aimed to perform a comparative analysis by illustrating the relationship between structure and satisfaction in hospitals with different ownership types, while proposing structural variables to enhance job satisfaction. The findings indicate that private hospitals significantly differ from publicly-owned and university hospitals at a notable significance level. When comparing complexity levels among hospitals, it was observed that MoH hospitals exhibited a negative difference compared to both private and university hospitals.

Abstract

The aim of this paper, conducted in hospitals across Türkiye, is to investigate the relationship between organizational structure and job satisfaction, as well as to evaluate its impact on expectations and overall satisfaction. In this context, a study was carried out in hospitals operated by the Ministry of Health (MoH), universities, and private entities, examining how employees perceive the levels of formalization, centralization, complexity, and specialization that constitute the organizational structure, and how these factors influence their job satisfaction levels. We also aimed to perform a comparative analysis by illustrating the relationship between structure and satisfaction in hospitals with different ownership types, while proposing structural variables to enhance job satisfaction. The findings indicate that private hospitals significantly differ from publicly-owned and university hospitals at a notable significance level. When comparing complexity levels among hospitals, it was observed that MoH hospitals exhibited a negative difference compared to both private and university hospitals.
