Abstract :The aim of this study is to determine the impact of presenteeism on job performance. In the scope of the research, job performance has been exami-ned in terms of both contextual and task performance. This study was con-ducted with the participation of personnel responsible for ground handling services in the aviation sector. Given the determined objective, it was deci-ded that the quantitative method is suitable for the research, and data were obtained through scale forms. To assess employees\' presenteeism tendencies, the \"Stanford Presenteeism Scale (SPS-6)\" was utilized, while the \"Job Per-formance Scale\" was employed to measure job performance. The findings suggest that presenteeism impacts job performance in both task and con-textual dimensions. The results demonstrate that presenteeism significantly and positively affects both areas of job performance. This study highlights the beneficial effect of presenteeism on job performance. However, this sig-nificant positive relationship between presenteeism and performance does not entirely eliminate the fact that presenteeism is seen as a problem in busi-nesses.
