A Comparative Study of Self-Discipline and its Levels with Regard to Working Conditions among Production Workers

The ability to do the right thing even when no one supervises or the outcome is not important, is named self-discipline. The aim of present research was to compare the production worker’s self-discipline and its levels according to the working conditions. The research method was post hoc causal-comparison study. A sample of 300 participants was randomly stratified. The research tool was the self-discipline questionnaire which had internal consistency for total score 0.83. The calculated F For immoral and Adherence levels and total selfdiscipline variables, were significant at 0.01 level. The results from Scheffe post hoc test showed that the groups with light working conditions were more self-disciplined than the groups with heavy working conditions. With regard to the result of research, selfdiscipline varied by working conditions. Providing the appropriate working conditions in organizations and being the principles of equal welfare workers, can help to increase the self-discipline.
