The impact of workplace spirituality, workplace climate, and compensation on perceived job performance at eastern international general hospital
Abstract
Workplace spirituality, workplace climate, and compensation have been widely
debated in organizational management field by many famous scholars, such as Ashmos
and Duchon (2000), Griffith (2006), and Ghazanfar et al. (2011). However, if these
researchers provided some exploration on these phenomena’s effects in the Western
context, there is no empirical evidence evaluating the impacts of the above-mentioned
determinants on employees’ performance, especially in the Vietnamese context. My thesis
addresses the issues of spirituality, climate, and compensation at work with special
attention to their relationships with perceived job performance. Specifically, in my
research, I will be identifying the dimensions of workplace spirituality in order to examine
their effects, corresponding with workplace climate and compensation, on self-rated
performance. The findings suggest that there are strong, positive, and significant
relationships between workplace spirituality (engaging work, sense of community),
workplace climate, compensation and perceived job performance. Accordingly, some
applicable recommendations in the form of action plans to enhance personnel’s
productivity and organizational effectiveness are suggested. In sum, this research could by
all means shed new light on the neglected acknowledged phenomena of spirituality, climate
and compensation at work as well as make way for various applications in the working
environment.
