Covid-19 virüsü hızla dünyaya yayılmış ve dünyayı dolayısıyla da organizasyonları etkileyen tehditlerden biri haline gelmiştir. Covid-19 pandemisi hala devam etmekte ve kurumlar yeni normale uyum sağlamakta zorlanmaktadır. Çalışma ile, sağlık çalışanlarının Covid-19 pandemisi sürecinde çalıştıkları kuruma yönelik örgütsel dayanıklılık algılarını ölçmek amaçlanmıştır. Tanımlayıcı nitelikteki bu çalışmanın örneklemini bir üniversite hastanesinde çalışan 200 sağlık personeli oluşturmaktadır. Veriler, sağlık çalışanlarının sosyodemografik özelliklerini ve Örgütsel Dayanıklılık Ölçeğini içeren bir anketle toplanmıştır. Elde edilen veriler ortalamalar ve yüzde dağılımları, parametrik ve parametrik olmayan testler kullanılarak yorumlanmıştır. Covid-19 salgını sırasında iş organizasyonu ile ilgili yapılacak değişiklikler hakkında bilgilendirilme sorusuna cevap veren katılımcıların örgütsel dayanıklılık puanları ile diğerleri arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark bulunmuştur (p = 0,001). Benzer şekilde Covid-19 salgını nedeniyle hastane yönetiminden görevden ayrılma talebinde bulunan katılımcılarla bulunmayanların örgütsel dayanıklılık puanları arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark bulunmuştur (p = 0,005). Sağlık kurumları, salgının şiddetini azaltmak ve krize rağmen süreci iyileştirmek için büyük destek sağlamaktadır. Sağlıklı ve dayanıklı sağlık kurumları, kriz süreçlerini hızlı bir şekilde öğrenme fırsatlarına dönüştürmelidir.

There is a significant difference between the participants' organizational resilience scores who answered the question about being informed about the changes to be made regarding their work organization during the Covid-19 outbreak and the others (p=0.001). Similarly, there is a significant difference between organizational resilience scores of the participants who have requested to be dismissed due to the covid-19 outbreak from their duty from the management and the ones who have not (p=0.005).
