Abstract
This research aims to explore and analyze the relationship and impact of the flexible work system variable in the colleges of Salahaddin University. This is done by adopting flexible work options, regulations and organized policies, employee support, management support, job or work type as independent variable dimensions, versus the organizational obesity dimensions represented by (job bloating, functional integration, low productivity). The study population consisted of (2949) lectures in the colleges of Salahaddin University - Erbil city. The questionnaire was distributed to (468) of them, while the actual sample size that was subjected to the analysis was (341). The research used the descriptive-analytical approach, and a set of statistical tests were conducted to verify the hypotheses using the statistical software (SPSS v.28). The results showed a negative statistically significant correlation between the flexible work system and organizational obesity. The results also indicate that increasing work flexibility contributes to reducing the levels of organizational obesity. Based on these findings, the research recommends the need to raise awareness of the benefits of the flexible work system and to provide the necessary technical infrastructure, which contributes to improving academic and administrative performance.
