Abstract

Assessment Questionnaire (1980) and the Hershey, Blanchard, and Goldsmith Productivity Assessment Questionnaire were used to gather information. Pearson correlation coefficient and regression analysis tests were used to analyze the data. The results showed that the gap between power, individualism and masculinity could lead to increased job stress and Conversely, weakening these components leads to reduced job stress. Considering the impact factor related to the component of risk avoidance, it should be said that strengthening this component can lead to a reduction in job stress and vice versa, weakening this component will lead to an increase in job stress. The results showed that strengthening the power gap, individualism and masculinity could lead to a reduction in employee productivity and, conversely, a weakening of these components could lead to an increase in employee productivity. The results also showed that increasing job stress can lead to a decrease in employee productivity and, conversely, a decrease in this variable can lead to an increase in employee productivity. Based on the results, it can be said that the variable of job stress plays a mediating role in the relationship between power distance, individualism, risk rejection and masculinity.
