Zusammenfassung:This study was conducted to determine the effects of fatigue in nurses with confirmed COVID-19 infection on organizational outcomes. The study was carried out with the participation of 200 nurses who had tested positive for COVID-19 in the last eighteen months and had COVID-19-related fatigue complaints. Data were collected between October 2022 and February 2023 using a questionnaire consisting of the Chalder Fatigue Scale, the Work Alienation Scale, the Turnover Intention Scale, and the Employee Performance Scale. Fatigue was the most common symptom of COVID-19 in this study, as in other results. The number of being infected with COVID-19 and education levels were found to be significant predictors of post-COVID-19 fatigue. Post-COVID-19 fatigue had an effect on turnover intention and alienation to work, but it did not affect employee performance. In this study, the effects of post-COVID-19 fatigue on organizational outcomes such as employee performance, turnover intention, and work alienation were determined. Therefore, regardless of its source, fatigue should be dealt with managerially, and preventive policies and procedures should be developed.
