Özet

The main purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between the perceptions of favouritismand silence behaviours of healthcare professionals in terms of public and private hospital employees. In addition, it was examined whether demographic characteristics differ in the perception of favouritism and organizational silence. The research population consists of a total of 4700 healthcare professionals, 3200 employees of a public hospital and 1500 employees of a private hospital working in the province of Istanbul in 2021. Using the convenience sampling method, 411 healthcare workers were reached between 01.06.2021 and 30.08.2021. Data analysis was done with SPSS 24.0. T-test and ANOVA tests were used in the analysis of demographic variables. The relationship between the scale items was analyzed with the Pearson correlation test. The effect between the scale items was analyzed with the regression test. According to the results of the analysis, it was observed that the perceptions of favouritism, nepotism, favorism and cronyism were higher in those working in public hospitals than in those working in private hospitals (p<0,05). It was observed that accepting, defensive and prosocial silence behaviours were higher in those working in public hospitals than those working in private hospitals (p<0,05). It was determined that the organizational silence score did not show a stati stically significant difference in terms of the health sector (p>0,05). In addition, it was understood that there were significant differences between the perception of favouritism and organizational silence variables according to demographic variables. Demographic questions include age, gender, marital status, educational status, working time in the enterprise, total working time, position in the enterprise and whether it is familiar. With these results, it is thought that the study will draw attention to nepotism behaviours in the health sector. In line with the proposed solutions, it is thought that it will reduce nepotism behaviours and c reate working environments where employees can express their thoughts freely instead of in organizational silence.
