Abstract: In recent years, studies on mindfulness have been on the increase and it has been observed that studies on education and consumer behaviour are in majority. However, studies examining the effects of mindfulness on organisational stress (OS) due to employee workload are fairly limited. In this context, the current study aims to examine the effect of mindfulness on employees' increased OS due to workload and to determine the possible mediating role of self-control (SC). The hypothetical relationships between the research model developed to achieve the stated objectives and the constructs that make up the model were studied. The collected data were analysed using structural equation modelling (SEM). It has been determined that mindfulness has a positive and statistically significant effect on SC, that OS decreases with the increase in employees' mindfulness levels, and SC, which mediates this effect, contributes positively to this effect.
