description | Introduction: Partnership working plays an important role in the health system, results in delivery of coordinated packages of services to patients, and reduces the impact of organizational fragmentation.
Method: The study aimed to determine the relationship between partnership working and productivity in the employees of a university of medical sciences in the south of Iran.
Results: According to the result, partnership and productivity scores were 51.1 + 6.7 and 51.9 + 13.4, respectively. Partnership working had a positive relationship with productivity (r = 0.333, P = 0.001) and age of the employees (r = 0.142, P = 0.007). There was a negative relationship between the employees’ productivity with age and job position in ZAUMS (P= 0.009 and P= 0.001, respectively). The nurses had the highest score of productivity (mean=60.7±13.3). Moreover, employees with an Ph.D. degree (9 persons) had the highest scores of partnership and productivity in ZAUMS (53.6±3.1 and 56.8±6.3, respectively).
Conclusion: Enhancement of partnership working could increase the employees’ productivity in the health system. It is recommended that younger persons should be used in universities of medical science. Moreover, supportive staff should increase their partnership working to enhance the individual and organizational productivity. |
