Abstract

The article seeks to understand the relationship between job alienation and organizational citizenship behavior and social health among employees of Governmental agencies of Kerman. The theoretical framework of this research is based on the views of Melvin Seeman's job alienation and the Padsakov’s organizational citizenship behavior. Data collection tools include Seeman's job alienation questionnaire, Padsakov’s organizational citizenship behavior questionnaire, and Keyes's Social Health questionnaire. The statistical population is the employees of the Governmental organizations of Kerman in 2018 and the sample is 381 people based on Morgan's table. The research method is a survey and the method for analyzing the data are Pearson and Spearman correlation coefficients and structural equation model. The Kolmogorov–Smirnov test was used to measure the normality of the data. The results indicate a reverse linear relationship between job alienation and organizational citizenship behavior and social health. There is also a negative relationship between job alienation with education and income. Finally, the study indicates that increase in organizational alienation leads to a reduction in organizational commitment.
