Job Immersion and Its Role in Reducing Organizational Obesity Through Job Compatibility
Abstract
This research aims to identify job immersion and its impact on job compatibility by reducing organizational obesity in the Al-Wasat Refinery Company/Al-Doura Refinery Company. The research problem emerged from the possibility of a weakness in achieving employee satisfaction as a result of the impact of job immersion in the company and the increase in slackness and job laziness. The sample included 200 employees in the surveyed company, as the research aimed to test the hypotheses of the correlation and influence relationship between job immersion, organizational obesity, and job compatibility in the company, which was at the overall level and the sub-dimensions level, relying on the questionnaire to collect data and information related to the practical aspect, and using SPSS for data processing. One of the most important conclusions reached by the research is that applying a set of strategies to reduce organizational obesity in the investigated company would enhance the effect of job immersion on job compatibility, which indicates that the influential relationship between job immersion and job compatibility changes depending on the change in the level of organizational obesity in the company. The examined company led to enhancing the level of innovation among its employees in a way that contributes to increasing job compatibility by achieving satisfaction at work, reducing job laziness, providing academic qualifications for individuals working in the organization, and increasing the sense of responsibility, which leads to increasing its competitive position in the market.
