dc.description.abstractIntroduction: In parallel with the increasing importance of human resources, researches carried out on human resources and organizational behavior issues have increased. Issues of from which factors are employees' performance and efficient working affected have become the field of interest of many researchers. Employee empowerment and organizational stress are important concepts affecting the working life. Purpose: The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between employees' empowerment and organizational stress with the perspective of hospital employees. Methods: A questionnaire was applied to 140 employees working in a public hospital in Turkey to accomplish this purpose. Scales used were rated between 1 and 5. Results: As a result of the research, it was determined that participants' employee empowerment score was at a moderate level (2.717 +/- 0.786) and organizational stress score was high (3.420). While employees were affected by "sources of stress regarding the production structure" (3.599 +/- 0.863) at the most, they were affected by "sources of stress regarding the cultural structure" (2.923 +/- 1.026) at the least. As a result of the correlation analysis performed, negative and significant relationships were found between employee empowerment and sources of stress regarding the duty structure, sources of stress regarding the authority structure, sources of stress regarding the production structure, sources of stress regarding the clustering structure, and sources of stress regarding the cultural structure. Conclusion: The fact that employees do not have enough components of employee empowerment increases their stress levels. It is a known fact that the increasing stress level has negative impacts on both employees and the organization. Therefore, administrators should be aware of both concepts and try to create the necessary conditions strengthen their employees.
