The first section includes socio-demographic and work-life characteristics of healthcare professionals 9 questions, the second section includes the Servant Leadership Scale 14 questions, and the third section includes the Utrecht Work Engagement Scale 17 questions. Pearson Correlation and Linear Regression Analysis were used for statistical analysis.

 Amaç: Sağlık çalışanlarının algıladığı hizmetkâr liderliğin işe angaje olmalarını nasıl etkilediğinin belirlenmesidir. Yöntem: Kesitsel tipte gerçekleştirilen çalışmanın verileri 05-27 Ocak 2021 tarihleri arasında toplandı. Çalışma, bir İl Sağlık Müdürlüğü ve iki İlçe Sağlık Müdürlüğünde görev yapan 280 personelin katılımıyla gerçekleştirildi. Veri toplama formu üç bölümde yer alan 40 sorudan oluşmaktadır. Birinci bölümde sağlık çalışanlarının sosyodemografik ve çalışma yaşamı özellikleri 9 soru, ikinci bölümde Hizmetkâr Liderlik Ölçeği 14 soru ve üçüncü bölümde Utrecht İşe Adanma Ölçeği 17 soru bulunmaktadır. İstatistik analiz olarak; Pearson Korelasyon ve Doğrusal Regresyon Analizi kullanıldı. Bulgular: Sağlık çalışanlarının hizmetkâr liderlik algı düzeylerinin x55.5 ve işe angaje olma durumlarının x86.8 ölçek ortalamalarının üzerinde olduğu görüldü. Hizmetkâr liderlik ile işe angaje olma arasında pozitif yönde orta düzeyde r0.487 bir ilişki olduğu, hizmetkâr liderliğin işe angaje olmaya ait değişimin 24.3ünü açıkladığı görüldü. Sonuç: Hizmetkâr liderlik davranışları sergileyen liderlerin, sağlık çalışanlarının işe angaje olmasına düşük düzeyde, pozitif yönde etki ettiğini göstermektedir. Liderlerin, hizmetkâr liderlik nitelikleri baskın kişiler arasından seçilmesi önerilmektedir.
