Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between organizational health and the performance of employees in the extractive industry. The quantitative approach was employed as the research methodology by the researchers. Participants in the study are individuals who are employed by companies that are involved in the extraction of minerals and other resources. Three hundred forty-three valid questionnaires were recovered for further analysis from a sample of 360 employees who were found to be an appropriate fit for delivering the study questionnaire to them. The findings of the study indicate that organizational health, as measured by its dimensions (communication, trust, cohesiveness, targeting, and creativity), had a statistically significant impact on the employees’ performance at the extractive sectors in Jordan. The researchers provided a number of recommendations, including the necessity to build unified and fair administrative accountability mechanisms, as well as the need for extractive companies’ decision makers to collaborate in order to understand the demands and requirements of employees.
