The work uses a quantitative survey method to gather the opinions of employees in both public and private organizations in the UAE on IWE. The findings of the study revealed that the ability of a worker to balance his or her personal and organizational needs in the workplace meant success in his religious and organizational life. Also, findings showed that being productive in work organizations should not be tied to the amount of money one gets, and that illicit behavior like stockpiling grains and other essential commodities for the purpose of profit - making in times of need is unethical and un-islamic. This study clearly indicates the need for employees and managers to uphold the Muslim teachings which can be manifested in their daily work attitudes (best practices) in various organizations. The study highlights the various ethical variables that employees believe are essential to work organizations while keeping faith to the Islamic religion. </style></abstract><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">60-72</style></section></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">James Baba  Abugre</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APPRAISING THE IMPACT OF ORGANIZATIONAL COMMUNICATION ON WORKER SATISFACTION IN ORGANIZATIONAL WORKPLACE</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Problems of Management in the 21st Century </style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">employee performance</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">organizational communication</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">worker satisfaction</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2011</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">May/2011</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://oaji.net/articles/2014/450-1391887054.pdf</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></volume><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Today, more and more businesses depend on communications for their success since a well-organized communication system is shown to be an important factor in stimulating worker satisfaction in organizations.
