Abstract :The study aims to reveal the perceived organizational support (POS) and job satisfaction (JS) levels of firefighters and to determine whether there is a relationship between them. A questionnaire was applied to 426 firefighters working in Turkey using convenience and snowball sampling methods. As a result of the study, POS was found to be at medium level and JS was found to be above average. It was found that there was both a positive relationship between POS and JS and that POS had a significant positive effect on JS. Significant differences were found in terms of marital status, salary adequacy, age, and education in terms of POS, while no difference was found in terms of years of experience variables. In terms of JS, a significant difference was found in terms of salary adequacy and educational status variables, while no difference was found in terms of marital status, age, and years of experience variables.
