نقش سرمایه انسانی در موفقیت سازمانی: تمرکز بر سلامت جسمانی و روانی حسابداران

زمینه و هدف: نقش نیروی انسانی کارآمد در موفقیت و تداوم فعالیت هر سازمانی غیرقابل انکار است. حسابداران از جمله کارکنانی هستند که می توانند در تحقق اهداف سازمانی نقش بسزائی داشته باشند. بدین معنی که حسابداران می توانند به سازمان ها در کاهش هزینه ها، کسب مزیت رقابتی و مدیریت ریسک کمک کنند. بنابراین سلامت جسمانی و روانی کارکنان به ویژه حسابداران از جمله دغدغه های جدی هر سازمانی می باشد. در همین راستا، هدف این پژوهش بررسی میزان اثرگذاری سلامت جسمی و روانی حسابداران بر موفقیت سازمانی است.روش بررسی: طرح پژوهش همبستگی از نوع مدل سازی معادلات ساختاری بود. جامعه آماری این پژوهش شامل 209 نفر حسابدار شاغل به کار در شرکت های تولیدی استان خوزستان بود، که به روش نمونه گیری در دسترس انتخاب شدند. ابزار پژوهش پرسشنامه های استاندارد بود. برای تجزیه وتحلیل داده ها از تکنیک مدل سازی معادلات ساختاری با نرم افزار آموس استفاده شد. یافته ها: براساس یافته های حاصل از آزمون فرضیه ها، سازه های سلامت جسمانی (فعالیت های بدنی، تغذیه وشرایط محیطی) و سازه های روانی (بهزیستی هیجانی، بهزیستی روانشناختی و بهزیستی اجتماعی) بر موفقیت سازمانی اثر مثبت و معناداری دارند. از میان سازه های سلامت جسمانی، فعالیت های بدنی و از میان سازه های سلامت روانی، سازه بهزیستی هیجانی اثرگذاری بیشتری بر موفقیت سازمانی دارند. نتیجه گیری: بنابر یافته های پژوهش بعدهای سلامت جسمی و روانی بر عملکرد حسابداران اثرگذار هستند. بنابراین ضرورت دارد حسابداران برنامه مدون و منظمی در راستای حفظ و بهبود سلامت جسمی و روانی خود داشته باشند. همچنین پیشنهاد می شود سیاست گذاران و مدیران سازمان ها بودجه و اهتمام لازم را برای بهبود سلامت جسمی و روانی کارکنان به ویژه حسابداران اختصاص دهند.

the role of human capital in organizational success: a focus on physcial and mental well-being of accountants

introduction  human resources are a critical asset for any organization's success. in today's knowledge-based economy, capable human resources are even more essential (22). the quality of human resources is influenced by both workplace conditions and individual employee characteristics. according to nguyen (27), organizations can achieve sustainable development through efficient human resource management.in today's knowledge-based economy, organizations prioritize their employees. active employee engagement not only enhances customer satisfaction but also significantly contributes to achieving organizational goals (24). healthy and motivated employees are crucial to organizational success. to thrive, organizations must prioritize employee health in addition to knowledge, commitment, and skills (26). healthy employees with high morale effectively communicate and actively participate in achieving organizational objectives.healthy employees, both physically and mentally, contribute significantly to achieving goals such as attracting more customers, increasing profitability, and enhancing brand reputation (20). additionally, physical and mental well-being reduces employee absenteeism and improves work quality. a strong sense of belonging, fostered by physical and mental health, leads to employees feeling connected to the company's successes and failures (17). consequently, loyal employees invest significant time and energy in achieving organizational goals, contributing to a competitive advantage.accountants are key employees who can significantly contribute to achieving organizational goals. this includes reducing costs, gaining a competitive advantage, and managing risk. therefore, the physical and mental well-being of employees, particularly accountants, is a critical concern for organizations. this study aims to investigate the impact of accountants' physical and mental health on organizational success.methodology this research is a practical, descriptive-exploratory correlational study. the study population consisted of accountants working in manufacturing companies. due to the difficulty and cost of accessing the entire population, a convenience sample of 218 questionnaires was collected. of these, 209 were usable, resulting in a return rate of 54.4%, which is considered acceptable (4). simple random sampling was employed, and data was collected during the fourth quarter of 2022 and the first quarter of 2023.the literature review was conducted using library research methods. the literature review informed the development of the research questions for the physical health, mental health, and organizational success constructs, drawing upon the work of goldberg & hillier (10), keyes et al. (16), and huff et al. (13), respectively.structural equation modeling (sem) was employed using spss version 26 and amos version 24 to analyze the data. descriptive statistics were extracted using spss, while inferential statistics were conducted using amos.result according to the research findings, 69.4% of the respondents were male, and 30.6% were female. the majority of respondents were aged 30-40 (43.5%). most respondents held a master's degree (59.8%), and their work experience ranged from 5 to 10 years (24.9%).before hypothesis testing, the normality of the data was assessed. given the sample size of 209 cases, the central limit theorem suggests that the data can be assumed to be normally distributed. the study included seven variables: physical activity or sports (s), social health (sh), organizational success (os), psychological health (ph), emotional well-being (eh), physical work environment conditions (wp), and nutrition (n).this study used two indices—composite reliability (cr) and average variance extracted (ave)—to assess instrument reliability. two additional indices—convergent validity and discriminant validity—were employed to measure instrument validity (table 1).table

reliability and validity. specifically, all cr values are greater than 0.7, and all ave values are greater than 0.5. additionally, the maximum shared variance (msv) and average shared variance (asv) are lower than the ave.assessing the goodness-of-fit is a crucial aspect of structural equation modeling (sem). several indicators were used to assess the model fit in this study (table 3). table 3:

os0.1750.0620.1992.8270.005according to table 4, all six main hypotheses were confirmed at the 99% confidence level, as their critical ratios exceeded 2.58. this indicates that a one-unit increase in the variables of sports, nutrition, physical work environment conditions, emotional well-being, psychological health, and social health, respectively, leads to a 0.254, 0.173, 0.126, 0.213, 0.174, and 0.175 unit increase in organizational success. based on the standardized coefficients, physical activity had the strongest influence, while psychological health had the weakest. given the sedentary nature of accounting work, this finding seems reasonable.conclusions in addition to possessing technical knowledge and professional ethics, accountants must maintain sufficient physical and mental health to deliver quality professional services. this study demonstrates that the physical and mental health of accountants plays a significant role in enhancing their performance and, subsequently, organizational success.to assess the physical health of accountants, this research utilized three constructs: physical activity, nutrition, and physical work environment conditions. physical activity can significantly boost employee vitality by positively impacting various bodily systems. a healthy diet can enhance employee efficiency and productivity by improving physical health. the physical work environment has a substantial impact on employee performance, and proper design and equipment can contribute to their physical well-being.psychological health encompasses healthy thinking and the ability to adapt to one's environment and social interactions. it plays a significant role in achieving organizational goals by reducing material and emotional costs. for accountants, psychological health involves the capacity to withstand work pressure.this study employed three constructs to assess the psychological health of accountants: emotional well-being, psychological health, and social health. emotional well-being represents a balance between positive and negative emotions. increased positive emotions lead to greater employee motivation and engagement. psychological health reflects inner well-being and self-efficacy, enabling employees to contribute more actively to the organization. social health indicates an individual's level of social presence within the organization and society. this enhances employees' ability to play a more effective role in the organization.accountants shoulder diverse and extensive responsibilities, making physical and psychological health crucial for timely and high-quality performance. thinking is a core competency for accountants, demanding both physical and mental well-being. given their constant engagement with tables, charts, and complex statistical data, accountants are prone to conditions like stress, sick building syndrome, and headaches. as valuable assets to their organizations, accountants require attention to their physical and psychological health.recommendationsbased on the research findings, recommendations can be made for both accountants and organizations. for accountants, the following two areas require attention.a) improve physical fitness: accountants should prioritize physical health by engaging in regular exercise, playing sports, and maintaining a balanced diet.a-1) enhance psychological resilience: accountants should cultivate effective coping mechanisms for challenges, pressures, and stressors. positive thinking and avoiding negative emotions like stress, depression, and anxiety are essential. a-2) prioritize learning and practice: new accountants should prioritize learning fundamental accounting concepts to build confidence. continuous practice and revision of basic principles are crucial for enhancing accounting knowledge. effective and consistent work is a key to success in the accounting profession.a-3) continuous learning: continuous learning expands accountants' knowledge and perspectives. by staying updated through sources like professors, colleagues, conferences, journals, and websites, accountants can enhance their accounting and auditing skills.a-4) enhance it skills: it proficiency is essential for accountants as it increases efficiency and accuracy in completing tasks.b) organizations: accountants are a primary source of financial data essential for critical decision-making. therefore, organizations must prioritize the well-being and work-life balance of their accountants. effective incentive policies are crucial for attracting and retaining qualified accountants. competitive salaries are necessary to ensure a satisfactory standard of living and support further education, thereby attracting top talent. organizations should also provide continuous training opportunities to keep accountants updated with the latest industry knowledge.conflict of interestnone. keywordsaccountant health, organizational success, physical health,
