This study aims to address an important gap in the literature by examining the effects of technostress and safety climate on employees' technological productivity and by evaluating the moderating role of perceived organizational support in these relationships.Analyses conducted on survey data collected from 425 employees working in the defense industry reveal that technostress has a significant negative effect on technological productivity, whereas safety climate has a positive effect on technological productivity.The findings further indicate that perceived organizational support moderates the relationship between safety climate and technological productivity, strengthening the positive impact of safety climate on technological productivity.However, perceived organizational support does not exhibit a significant moderating effect on the relationship between technostress and technological productivity.By examining technostress, safety climate, and perceived organizational support-constructs that are rarely addressed together in the literature-within an integrated framework, this study contributes to a more comprehensive understanding of technological productivity.Furthermore, its focus on the defense industry, characterized by high-technology intensity and high reliability requirements, fills an important gap in the literature and provides actionable insights for improving employee well-being, safety, and technological productivity.
