Abstract: (1252 Views)
Background and Objectives: The limited resources and the increasing demand for them show the vital importance of paying attention to productivity in the organization. This study aims to develop a human resource (HR) productivity model for healthcare workers in the health center of Qom province, Iran.
Methods: This is a qualitative study based on the grounded theory. The participants were 11 specialists and experts in the fields of educational management, productivity, health education, and health promotion in Iran, who were selected using a purposive sampling method until reaching data saturation. A semi-structured interview was used to collect data. The grounded theory method was used to analyze the data by applying open, axial, and selective coding. In this regard, 201 open codes (concepts), 20 axial codes (dimensions and components), and 6 selective codes (main categories) were extracted.
Results: The theme “integrated HR management system” had four axial codes: “HR recruitment and supply system”, “HR maintenance system”, “HR training and improvement system” and “HR utilization system”. The causal conditions had three categories: “Structural conditions”, “cultural conditions” and “organizational processes”. The background conditions included three categories: “Infrastructure factors”, “focus on organizational values”, and “managerial factors”. The intervening conditions consisted of four categories: “support and environmental dynamics”, “political-legal factors”, “socio-cultural factors”, and “economic factors”. The strategies included “reform of management structure”, “reform of regulations”, and “institutionalization of HR management system”. Finally, the consequences included “individual”, “organizational” and “transorganizational” categories.
Conclusion: The healthcare worker productivity model includes four main axial codes and different causal, background, and intervening conditions, strategies, and consequences.
