A global epidemic of metamorphosed, conglomerated health care systems changed the face of public health care organizations. The problem is, public health care organizations merge into new systems, but the culture for each merged organization has not been formed under the new system. Public administrators, health care workers and the Department of Health and Human Services are affected when there are issues in health care behavioral practices and performance outcomes. Research found that employee motivation is hard to achieve when there are issues within the internal structure of a new system. Using Herzberg's motivation-hygiene and Tajfel and Turner's social identity theories as the foundation, the purpose of this correlational study was to examine the statistical relationship between growth opportunities, organizational culture, monetary compensation and employee motivation. Secondary data were used from a sample of 3,033 health care workers from 2 English hospitals in the United Kingdom. The data were examined using Point-Biserial Correlation Coefficient model statistical t test. The study's results concluded that growth opportunities, organizational culture, and monetary compensation significantly correlate with employee motivation. Recommendations included implementing systematic changes to the internal organizational structure by identifying and developing effective strategies to improve internal organizational practices and performance outcomes. Further research is needed for demographic comparisons. The study affects social change by informing the Department of Health and Human Services, health care organizations and public health administrators of various strategies that can be used to improve internal organizational practices performance outcomes.
