Abstract

Medical personnel, working in hospitals, are highly exposed to organizational terrorism in the recent years. Organizational terrorism may be an inward factor i.e., terrorism within the hospital (internal conflicts, administration-related workers, conflicts among different workers and against the organization) or external terrorism from third parties. In case of a medical failure and the patient dies, the doctor is threatened, manhandled or killed, at times. These crimes are increasingly reported not only in Iraq, but across the globe. The analysis of this paper was done using the statistical package for social sciences (IBM SPSS V. 25) for both descriptive and inferential statistics, and (SmartPLS 3.2.7) for SEM-PLS modeling.

Keywords: Organizational Terrorism, Psychological Tension.
