أخلاقيات المهنة ودورها في دعم الإنغماس الوظيفي للعاملين في منتديات الشباب والرياضة في بغداد

Abstract

The aim of the research is to construct two scales: professional ethics and job engagement, to identify the level of both professional ethics and job engagement among employees in Youth and Sports Forums in Baghdad, and to determine the contribution and effect of professional ethics on job engagement among these employees. The researcher hypothesized that the results of the professional ethics scale significantly contribute to, correlate with, and affect the results of the job engagement scale for the research sample.

The descriptive method was adopted using a correlational approach on employees of the Rusafa Youth and Sports Forum, numbering (250) individuals, representing the total research sample, which constitutes (22.584%) of the research population who were regularly attending work in three forums during the year (2025). The sample was divided into three groups according to the research requirements. After completing the procedural and statistical steps for constructing both research scales on a construction sample of (130) individuals, and conducting a pilot test on (10) individuals, the two scales were applied to an application sample of (110) individuals. After processing the results using the (SPSS) system, the conclusions indicated that the professional ethics and job engagement scales are valid for measuring these two administrative phenomena among employees in Youth and Sports Forums in Baghdad, and they possess the scientific properties required for paper-and-pencil measures. A moderate level of both professional ethics and job engagement was found among employees in these forums. Moreover, the presence of an acceptable level of professional ethics has a clear positive role in enhancing and raising the level of job engagement among employees in Youth and Sports Forums in Baghdad. The most important recommendations include the necessity of developing programs to promote and enhance professional ethics due to their role in increasing job engagement among employees in Youth and Sports Forums in Baghdad. It is also necessary for the Iraqi Ministry of Youth and Sports to emphasize the inclusion of professional ethics enhancement in its educational bulletins issued to its staff across various forums. Additionally, increasing financial allocations to reward outstanding and entrepreneurial work within the budgets of Youth and Sports Forums in Baghdad is recommended in order to enhance job engagement.
