Presenteeism is the situation where the employees are physically at work but not mentally. Presenteeism can cause mental and physical health problems on employees and affect the efficiency of both employee and organization negatively in the long term period. In this study, it was aimed to examine the effect of work stress and role ambiguity on presenteeism. The sample of the study consists of 128 employees of an office furniture factory in Kahramanmaras. The collected data were analyzed using exploratory factor analysis, reliability analysis, t test, ANOVA, correlation and multiple regression analysis. The results show that there are positive significant relationships between the dimensions of presenteeism and variables of work stress and role ambiguity. The results indicate that job stress and role ambiguity variables have positive effects on presenteeism and its subdimensions (psychological focus presenteeism, work focus presenteeism). Additionally, the differentiation of presenteeism was examined according to gender, education level and seniority in the workplace. As a result of the analysis, it was determined that all three types of presenteeism did not differ according to gender. The significant differences were observed between the education level groups in both one-dimension presenteeism and its work focus subdimension whereas significant difference was not observed in terms of psychological focus presenteeism subdimension. it was seen that psychological focus presenteeism subdimension differed according to the seniority in the workplace but work focus presenteeism subdimension did not.
