The information obtained was analyzed at the level of inferential statistics (correlation coefficient and multivariable regression tests). The results indicated that there is a significant correlation between workplace spirituality and its components and employees’ organizational citizenship behavior. Among those components, alignment with organization’s values and meaningful work showed multiple correlations with employees’ organizational citizenship behavior.
