(ELSEVIER, 2016) Omer Ozturkoglu; Ebru E. Saygili; Yucel Ozturkoglu; Ozturkoglu, Yucel; Saygili, Ebru E.; Ozturkoglu, Omer
Job satisfaction in terms of worker's satisfaction is one of the intensively studied areas in human resource and management. However there is little information available on how ergonomics and the manufacturing environment affect job satisfaction. This study analyzes the extent of the relationship between job satisfaction and work and workplace related conditions. A conceptual model is proposed to evaluate job satisfaction that considers 34 elements in four categories: manufacturing systems facility design safety and ergonomics and human resources and management. A survey of 169 blue-collar workers working in the automotive industry was conducted to investigate the applicability of the model. A comprehensive exploratory factor analysis was used to determine inter-related elements their underlying factors and their effects on job satisfaction. The analysis revealed 6 factors with 18 related elements. From a multi linear regression analysis we develop a job satisfaction model built on factors of human resource policies safety ergonomics air quality thermal comfort and disturbing equipment. The results reveal that ergonomics plays the most important role in workers' satisfaction for the respondent Turkish automotive workers. In contrast human resource policies seem not play a critical role in job satisfaction because of higher standards in automotive industry compared to other industries in Turkey. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V.

(IGI Global cust@igi-global.com, 2017) Ebru E. Saygılı; Yucel Yilmaz Ozturkoglu; Mehmet C. Kocakülâh; Ozturkoglu, Yucel; Saygili, Ebru E.; Kocakulah, Mehmet C.
Today's competitive world is given the critical role of enterprise resource planning (ERP) for coordinating the workflow in companies from different industries. To provide valuable insights into ERP identifying the critical factors are the most important issue in achieving quality and success. Both in literature and practice there are quite a few of success factors for ERP applications. One of the purposes of this paper is to empirically classify the most important critical factors referred by scholars in previous studies. Another purpose is to determine the critical success factors in the light of end-user perceptions. In this respect exploratory factor analysis was conducted to determine the factorial structure of the scale. Data was collected 128 ERP end-users from different departments of companies in manufacturing industry. The results of the analysis provided a six-dimensional structure for critical success factors (CSFs) in quality and successful ERP applications. © 2017 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
