This research aims to determine whether commissioners and deputy commissioners, who are junior administrative police officers in the police department, are workaholic or not. The research also aims to test validity and reliability of the two-dimension workaholism scale, which was previously applied in our country in relation to workaholism.
There were not enough findings to identify police managers as workaholic in the end of the research. However, the result obtained reveals a hidden workaholism in the organization. Even if the item ranking obtained in the factor analysis held in scope of the research was different, validity and reliability of “Workaholism Scale Turkish Form” was accepted. A number of suggestions regarding workaholic employees were made to the managers on the basis of findings in the end of the research.
