Journal Title: Lectio Socialis - Year 2018, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
Culture is described as one of the most important elements that defines the facts and formation of a human life. Working together with people from different cultures is inevitable in the business world. Adjusting to this multi-culture also has an affect on the productivity of employees coming from different cultures. Starting from this thought, the intention of this study is to manifest the association between the attitudes encountered by the employees in an enterprise in view of their cultural differences and their performance. In line with the objective of this study, a survey has been carried out with the blue-color workers employed in manufacturing workshops in the textile sector in Istanbul which also included questions regarding the regional cultures of the employees. The findings of the study showed that there was a positive significant association between the employees’ attitudes towards cultural differences and the employees’ performance. Furthermore, the differences between employees from different cultures were also examined by means of difference analyzes and analyzed by means of difference tests.
