Abstract: The main objective of this study is to examine the relationship between work alienation, job satisfaction and job performance and to evaluate the mediation effect of job satisfaction on the relationship between work alienation and job performance among the academic staff in the Iraqi technical colleges and institutes. A quantitative approach through the survey instruments was adopted in this study. The total number of returned questionnaires was 419 from a total of 750 questionnaires. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was employed to test the mediating effect of job satisfaction on the relationship between work alienation as independent variable and job performance as dependent variable. The results revealed that job satisfaction partially mediated the relationship between work alienation and job performances.
