| Summary / Abstract (Note) | A unique dimension of employee efficiency is reported in this paper. Sexuality in the work place, as well as rendezvous and romance in this context, have already received some attention from researchers but the topic is underexplored, most probably due to differences between Western culture and Asian culture. The primary focus of the study was to investigate the role played by religion in determining an employee’s sexual behavior, and in asking them to act within certain limits? The socio-economic circumstances, norms, customs, and obsession with social status that lead to delayed marriages push people into a corner, leaving them with the possible option of religiously forbidden actions where sexual desire is concerned. After indulging in such actions, regret and remorse create sexual frustration in employees, and this sexual frustration compromises their efficiency in the workplace. Ordinal regression and manipulations in syntax of ordinal regression were used to measure this concept. The study revealed that religiously forbidden actions and sexual frustration significantly diminishes the efficiency of some employees, whereas married and female employees are less sexually frustrated and thus are more efficient in the workplace. |
