Abstract: As a work ethics system, Akhism is a system that is talked about from centuries ago to now. The aim of this research is evaluation of tradesman’s and craftsmen’s levels of the ownership of Akhi_Order Values in terms of some variables in Kırşehir. The research population consists of tradesman’s and craftsmen’s and the workers who work together with them, living in Kırşehir. The research was descriptive and the face-to-face survey technique was used to collect the data. The data collection was performed using the Akhi Order Values Scale. Descriptive statistics, Mann Whitney U test and Kruskal Wallis variance analysis were performed on the data. In addition, exploratory factor analysis was applied to test the validity of the scale. Scale scores were statistically significant in terms of age, gender, duty and educational status. Research findings show that Kırşehir tradesman and craftsmen have adopted Akhi values at an intermediate level. When the results of the study are examined, it was seen that tradesman and craftsmen’s did not adopt the values of Akhi. This result is similar to other studies.
