description <strong>Background:</strong> Job performance is one of the most important variables in industrial and organizational psychology and its importance<br />is clear to both individuals and organizations. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between spiritual wellbeing<br />and organizational virtuousness with the performance of high school teachers in Bandar Lengeh, Hormozgan Province.<br /><strong>Methods:</strong> This was a cross sectional study conducted on all secondary teachers in Bandar Lengeh city, Hormozgan Province. 127 individuals were determined by using Morgan table. Measurement tools were 40-item Spiritual Well-being Questionnaire, 15-item of Organizational Virtuousness Questionnaire, and the 12-item Job Performance Questionnaire. Level of statistical significance was set at P<0.05.<br /><strong>Results:</strong> The majority of respondents (77%) were men. 71% (n=90) of the respondents had a bachelor’s degree. The findings of this study showed that there was a positive and significant relationship between spiritual well-being and its dimensions (relationship with God, self-relationship, relationship with others, and relationship with nature) with the performance of high<br />school teachers (P<0.001). Also, there was a positive and significant relationship between organizational virtuousness and its dimensions (optimism, trust, sympathy, cohesion, and forgiveness) with the performance of high school teachers (P<0.05).<br /><strong>Conclusion:</strong> Based on the findings of this study, it can be said that enhancing spiritual well-being and organizational virtuousness can enhance the performance of secondary school teachers.
