Özet:

This study aims to reveal the relationship between ethical climate perception and the innovative work behaviors of health workers. Besides, the effects of ethical climate perception sub-dimensions on innovative work behavior were tried to be introduced in the study. In order to realize the objectives determined in the study, field research was conducted in a public hospital in Ankara. 280 public health workers participated in the study. The data obtained from the research were subjected to descriptive statistics analysis, correlation analysis, and multiple linear regression analysis. According to the results of the analysis, it is determined that there is a 21% statistically significant and positive relationship between the ethical climate perception and innovative working behavior levels of healthcare workers. Among the ethical climate perception sub-dimensions, benevolence and independence dimensions were found to be positively related to innovative work behavior. A 10 percent deviation in the innovative work behaviors of health workers is explained by ethical climate perception sub-dimensions. It was concluded that "benevolence" and "independence", the ethical climate sub-dimensions, affected the innovative working behavior by 17% and 23%, respectively. On the other hand, "laws, and codes", "rules", and "instrumental" dimensions were not found to have a statistically significant effect.
