Abstract
Abstract
Purpose: The purpose of this research is to identify the process model of the organizational consequences of the marginalization of employees in the organization, and help to better understand the consequences of this phenomenon.
Design/ methodology/ approach: In this research, which was conducted with structural-interpretive methodology and in one of Iran's government organizations in the oil industry, an attempt has been made to consider the narratives and stories of people who have experienced the phenomenon in this organization. The organizational consequences of marginalization in the identification organization and its process model are presented and discussed. The participants of this research were 15 employees who were selected by the purposeful sampling method and their narratives and lived experience about marginalization were identified and presented in the form of a marginalization model.
Research Findings: Based on the results of the marginalization phenomenon and using structural-interpretive modeling, the process model of the organizational consequences of employee marginalization and its different levels was developed and discussed.
Limitations & Consequences: due to the sensitivity of the issue and the strict view of the organization, it was time-consuming and difficult to conduct interviews and convince the participants to express their narratives without fear or censorship. This led to a lot of interruption in the process of conducting the research and stopping the researcher more than planned during the interview phase.
Practical Consequences: ،he pattern indicates that neglecting the primary consequences such as lack of meritocracy in the organization, organizational injustice, organizational appearance and non-coercive atmosphere in the organization aggravates the subsequent consequences and ultimately isolation and rejection.
Innovation or value of the Article: In this article, the elements of the consequences of the marginalization of employees in the organization have been identified and presented from the narratives and lived experience of the employees.
