The vocational adjustment considers one of the important and essential matters and issues for employees to perform their duties, at the best way possible, due to its association with their job success, and their adaptation to the work environment socially, physically, and psychologically to achieve the greatest balancing level. The vocational adjustment reflects employees’ job satisfaction, environmental components, and their relationship with co-workers (Fahjan, 2010). It is a state of agreement and compatibility between employees and their job, where it make them satisfied with their work, and others are satisfied by them (Awad, 1988), which is a collection of psychological, physiological, and environmental conditions that surrounded employees’ relationship with their co-workers and superiors, and align with their personalities which make them say honestly we are happy with our job. The employees always need to fit in and adjust with the new conditions, businesses, and environments, in addition to the great benefits of institution, in case employees were put in the right place, which will increase employees’. The interest of institutions, to establish clubs, promote sports activities, hold concerts, excursions, and trips, and the different social and recreational activities, help to improve the required relationship of employees with their co-workers and increase their adjustment and alignment with them (Taha, 1992), and the compatible employees who adjust well with their job, usually have a good relationship with the regime and administrative bodies of institution, but workers who can’t find the psychological and vocational satisfaction, they lead the striking list inside the enterprise, the organization has to find and examine the real reasons of the bad relationship between the workers and the institution, and its administrative bodies, and tries hard to remove it and dispose it (Taha, 1992), to achieve the vocational, psychological, and social compatibility and adjustment
