The research aimed to examine the direct impact of
Employees mental health (EMH) on work productivity (WP) at
the Governmental hospitals in Qalyubia Governorate, and
explore whether presenteeism (PRE) and absenteeism (ABS)
play a mediating role in this relationship. The research began
with a literature review of EMH, PRE, ABS, and WP, followed
by developing a conceptual framework and formulating seven
main hypotheses. A field study was then conducted using a
sample of 374 medical and nursing staff at the Governmental
hospitals in Qalyubia Governorate. Collected data were analyzed
using partial least square structural equation model (PLS-SEM)
using Smart PLS V.4 Software. The findings of the study imply
that EMH has a statistically significant positive direct impact on
WP. Moreover, statistical results also revealed that both PRE and ABS play a mediating role in the relationship between EMH and
WP at the Governmental hospitals in Qalyubia Governorate
