For this purpose, the quantitative method was followed in the research and the relational scanning model was determined as a design. The research was carried out with 249 participants. The data of the research were collected with the "job crafting scale, individual innovativeness scale, individual job performance scale". Skewness and kurtosis values were checked for the normality distribution of the data, and explanatory factor analysis was applied since the normal distribution was provided. For difference tests, t-test was applied in paired groups and ANOVA was applied in groups of more than two. Pearson correlation was used to determine the relationships between the variables, and regression analysis was used to determine the effects of the variables on each other.As a result of the analyzes made, it was concluded that the participants had a moderate level of job resourcefulness, individual innovativeness and job performance. When the relations between the variables are examined, it is understood that there is a positive and moderate relationship between job resourcefulness, individual innovativeness and individual performance. According to the regression analysis, the job resourcefulness levels of the participants predicted the job performance statistically significantly and positively; It was concluded that individual innovativeness levels predicted job performance statistically significantly and positively.
