Purpose: The present study seeks to develop the intellectual contents of the work

ethics, selection and hiring in order to determine the behavior of organizational

citizenship in the public universities in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq. This will be

accomplished at three levels. Level of Description: Identification, diagnosis and

presentation of the philosophical content of human resources management and

organizational behavior in the modern administration thought is represented by the

work ethics and its impact on organizational citizenship behaviors through the

selection and hiring of special grades in public universities.

The level of analysis: Analyze and present the impact of work ethic represented by

(Ethical leadership, individual ethics, organizations structure and systems, political

inheritance) on organizational citizenship behavior and its dimensions (altruism,

civic virtue, consciousness, sportsmanship, courtesy) through selection and hiring

of special grades by their standards (selection and recruitment policies, knowledge,

skills, competencies) in public universities.

The level of prediction: the formulation of a scheme for the selection and hiring

of special grades in the public universities of the Kurdistan Region and the

development of specific expectations on the nature of the relationship and the

impact between the variables investigated.

Problem statement: The study started from a problem expressed by a number of

intellectual and practical questions. The most prominent of these are: Does the

work ethic affect the organizational citizenship behavior by selecting and hiring the

special grades in public universities by focusing on the deans of the colleges? Are

the policies of selection and hiring of the Deans having scientific foundations in

the universities of the Kurdistan Region of Iraq? What is the level of current study

variables in the surveyed universities? What are the moral factors that must be

emphasized in order to promote the practical reality of the selection and hiring

process, which can contribute effectively to the successful adoption of the concept

of organizational citizenship?

DESIGN / METHODOLOGY: The researcher used the analytical descriptive

approach in her current study. In order to achieve the objectives of the study and to

answer the above questions, the researcher adopted a virtual model that reflects the

nature of the relationship of correlation and influence between the variables of the

study and its dimensions, based on a number of hypotheses, the principal and

subset were subjected to a series of statistical tests through the SPSS V 21) and

(Amos Vr. 22).

The population of the study had effectively represented all the public universities

in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq exclusively, involving (444) department heads to

assess the reality of the behavior of the deans. The questionnaire was used as a

primary tool for collecting study data, as well as the use of personal interviewswith decision makers at the Ministry of Higher Education, and the method of

observation (direct monitoring) of the selection process. (444) questionnaire were

distributed to all department heads in the surveyed universities, 387 were retrieved

and the number of valid forms was 229.

After evaluating and testing the reliability and consistency of the measuring

instruments, data analysis and hypothesis testing were carried out using appropriate

statistical tools such as linear programming models, critical path analysis. The

results showed the validity of most of the hypotheses of the study. Based on this, a

number of conclusions were formulated, the most significant of which was the

significant effect of the independent variable (work ethic) in the dependent variable

(organizational citizenship) in the presence of the intermediate variable (selection

and recruitment). That’s to say, the presence of intermediate variable will improve

the effect of the work ethic in the organizational citizenship of the investigated

universities. The percentage of influence increased from 67.5% in the absence of

the intermediate variable to 79.6% in the presence of the intermediate variable.

Based on the conclusions, the study reached a number of recommendations, the

most important of which is that; the investigated universities implement the ethics

of work and its dimensions in applying the criteria of selection and hiring in the

selection of candidates for leadership positions at different levels and

administrative position within a regulatory and administrative structure that is

applicable in order to reinforce citizenship in addition to necessity for the public

universities to hold into the proposed model in the current study when conducting

the selection process. The study concluded with a number of proposals for further

studies.


The originality of this study is the first study that embraces the three main

variables together, and considered among the first studies that presented the

practical reality of the process of selection and hiring of special grades in the

universities of the Kurdistan Region of Iraq.
