Background and objective The role of fire departments in helping people in need is essential. This study aims to investigate the mediating role of job satisfaction in the relationship of job performance with career adaptability and job commitment in employees of the Fire Department in Qom, Iran.
Method This is a descriptive-correlational study. Participants were 60 employees of the Fire Department In Qom Province, Iran, who were selected by simple random sampling method. Four questionnaires were used to collect data: Song et al.’s career adapt-ability scale, Blau & Boal’s job commitment scale, Irawanto et al.’s job satisfaction scale, and Sony & Mekoth’s job performance scale. The data were analyzed using the structural equation modeling with a partial least squares approach in Warp PLS software, version 7.0.
Results Job commitment had a significant relationship with job satisfaction (t=0.687, P<0.001). The relationship of career adaptability with job satisfaction was not significant (P=0.087). The relationship of job satisfaction with job performance was significant (t=0.321, P=0.004). The relationship of job commitment with job performance mediated by job satisfaction was significant (t=0.221, P<0.001). The relationship of career adaptability with job performance was not significant even after mediation by job satisfaction (P>0.05).
Conclusion Job commitment in employees of the Fire Department In Qom Province has no significant direct relationship with their job performance; however, it has an indirect significant relationship with their job performance after mediation by job satisfaction. Their career adaptability has no significant relationship with job satisfaction. There is no significant relationship between career adaptability and job performance in fire department employees, even after mediation by job satisfaction.
