Abstract :The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between job crafting and psychological capital. The survey was conducted on randomly selected 200 employees working at a sugar manufacturing business. Data were gathered through question forms. Job crafting was measured with 19 items developed by Slemp and Vella-Brodrick (2013) and psychological capital was measured with 24 items developed by Luthans et al. (2007). The three dimensional structure of job crafting exhibited high reliability and validity. Also, it was found that there was a positive correlation between psychological capital and all dimensions of job crafting. There is a positive and statistically significant relationship between job crafting behaviors of employees and their psychological capital.Keywords : job crafting, psychological capital
