Abstract:

Mobbing affects employees in many ways. These effects lead to self-respect and work satisfaction. Social gender represents the status of the woman and the man in society and the role that this status brings according to how the society wants to see the individual. The aim of this study is to study the relationship between workplace harassment, self-respect and work satisfaction in the social gender context. The study, conducted for this purpose, included 195 women working in various professional groups, with an average age of 28,26±4,87, from the Istanbul sample. Participants were applied a demographic data form, the workplace harassment scale, the BEM gender roller inventory, the Rosenberg Identity Respect scale and the Minnesota Business Satisfaction scale. According to the correlation analysis findings, BEM Gender Roles found a positive correlation between femininity size and job satisfaction. On the other hand, there has been a negative correlation between workplace harassment and the low dimension of feminism, self-respect and job satisfaction. According to the latest multi-linear regression analysis, workplace harassment, self-respect and femininity dimensions have been seen as meaningful parameters in job satisfaction. As a result, women who feel more female have seen less harassment at work, their job satisfaction and higher self-esteem.
