Abstract: Abstract This study is a correlational research focused on the relationship between perceived organizational politics and job satisfaction among social workers employed in non-governmental organizations (NGOs). The research involved 7 non-governmental organizations in Helwan. The results show negative correlation between perception of organizational politics and job satisfaction. The lower employment satisfaction with NGO correlates with a negative perception of NGO’s organizational politics. The study offers recommendations to help NGOs improve their organizational politics and employee satisfaction at work. The results may be useful in future research on NGO activities and politics for managing social employees.
