Abstract
Mutluluk, bir bütün halinde insanların yaşam deneyimlerini nasıl algıladıkları ve değerlendirdikleri ile ilgili bir durumdur. Bu bütünlük içinde düşündükleri yaşamlarında ekonomik koşullarını, iş ve iş çevreleri ile çalışma hayatlarını da değerlendirirler. Bu noktada, kişinin mutluluğunu destekleyen faktörlerden birinin de “çalışma” olduğunu söyleyebiliriz. Geçmişte kölelikle eşdeğer görülüp, acı, yorgunluk ve zahmet gibi anlamlara gelen çalışma, günümüzde insan yaşamının önemli bir parçasını oluşturuyor. İnsanların pek çoğu yaşamlarının yaklaşık 30 yılını çalışarak geçirirler. Günde ortalama 5 ila 8 saat gibi zaman dilimleri içinde iş’te/işyerinde bulunurlar. Yaşam süresince ve gündelik yaşam içinde önemli bir paya sahip olan çalışmanın insan yaşamını olumlu ya da olumsuz yönde etkilemesi kaçınılmazdır. Çalışma yaşamı bağlamında iş doyumu, motivasyon, çalışma yaşamı kalitesi ya da tükenmişlik, yabancılaşma, monotonluk, işsizlik psikolojisi vb. konular yabancı ve Türkçe literatürde sıklıkla ele alınırken “çalışma mutluluğu” konusunu ele alan çok fazla çalışma olmadığı gözlenmiştir. Özellikle ülkemizde “çalışma mutluluğu”na yönelik kavramsal bir inceleme olmayışının, konunun netlik kazanmamış olmasının, halen iş doyumu ile eşdeğer bir kavram olarak açıklanmasının alan için önemli bir açık olduğu söylenebilir. Buradan yola çıkarak; bu makalede “çalışma mutluluğu” kavramına ilişkin kavramsal bir çerçeve çizmek hedeflenmiştir. Bu amaçla, “çalışma mutluluğu” ile ilgili bir literatür taraması yapılmış, mutluluk ve çalışma kavramları makalenin amacı doğrultusunda ele alınmış, ardından çalışma mutluluğu kavramına yer verilmiş, çalışma mutluluğunu etkileyen faktörler, çalışma mutluluğunun önemi ve sonuçları ele alınarak kavramsal bir çerçeve ortaya konulmaya çalışılmıştır.
Happiness is about how people perceive and appreciate life experiences as a whole. They consider economic conditions in their lives, work and business circles and working lives that they think in unity. At this point, we can say that one of the factors that support / contributes to the happiness of the person is "work". In the past, the work that has been seen as equivalent to slavery and which has meanings such as pain, fatigue and bother has become an important part of human life today. Most people spend about 30 years of their lives working. They are found at work / work place within an average of 5 to 8 hours a day. It is inevitable that a worker who has a significant share in life and in everyday life affects human life positively or negatively. Job satisfaction, motivation, working life quality or burnout, alienation, monotony, unemployment psychology etc. in the context of working life. it has been observed that there are not many studies dealing with the issue of "happiness at work" when the subjects are foreign and frequently discussed in Turkish literature. It can be said that it is an important deficit for the field to explain the fact that the fact that the concept is not a conceptual study for the ""happiness at work" in our country is not explained as a concept which is still equivalent to job satisfaction. By going out of here; it is aimed to draw a conceptual framework on the concept of ""happiness at work" in this article. For this purpose, a literature search related to the "happiness at work" was made, the concepts of happiness and work were handled in the direction of the article, then the concept of work happiness was given, the factors affecting work happiness, the importance and happiness of work happiness and a conceptual framework were tried to be presented.
