Abstract :

The purpose of this study is to investigate the cultural factors affecting organizational health in public sector. The study is important due to the significance of the public sector's organizational health, and its breadth and inclusion for individuals in the community. Therefore, first, by reviewing the literature and obtaining the opinion of experts, a questionnaire was made and through Cronbach's alpha test, the number 0.76 was calculated for its reliability. Then, in each of the categories of the Civil Service Management Law that have defined the public sector, an organization was selected and the questionnaire was distributed. This study showed that cultural factors with a coefficient of 0.78 affect organizational health in public sector organizations. This article suggests that the first step toward organizational health should be taking organizational culture into account by even enforcing current or changing it into a more suitable one.
