Abstract
Purpose: The present research was conducted with the general aim of examining the impact of an integrated management system on productivity in Iran's sports and recreational complexes, and proposing a model. Methods: The current research follows a quantitative approach. The present research follows a quantitative approach. The research instrument includes three questionnaires: a demographic information questionnaire, the productivity questionnaire by Asadi (2001) which measures two components of efficiency and effectiveness, and the integrated management system questionnaire by Ghasemi et al. (2013) which measures three components of quality management, environmental management, and occupational health and safety management. The face and content validity of the questionnaires were confirmed by the relevant experts. The reliability of the questionnaires was also confirmed by calculating Cronbach's alpha. SPSS version 26 and AMOS version 24 software were used to analyze the collected data. Results: The quality management system has a significant positive effect (t=5.208, p=0.001) on productivity; the environmental management system has a significant positive effect (t=8.546, p=0.001) on productivity; and the occupational health and safety management system has a significant positive effect (t=4.060, p=0.001) on the productivity of sports complexes in Mazandaran province. The integrated management system can directly influence the productivity of sports complexes. Conclusion: Therefore, it is recommended that the managers of these sports complexes do not overlook the importance of the integrated management system and by implementing it in their facilities, they can enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of these sports venues.
