This study aimed to identify the indicators of human resource productivity in the executive organizations of Kohgiluyeh and the province of Boyer-Ahmad and to analyze their situation. This research is applied on purpose, descriptive-correlational in nature, using a survey research method. The statistical population was made up of all the employees of the executive organizations of Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad (8,089 individuals), which according to the Cochran formula, the sample size was estimated at 366 individuals and the selection was based on a method of random grouping. To collect data, Goldsmith's (1980) employee productivity questionnaire was used. The experts confirmed the validity of the face and the content of the questionnaire, and the Cronbach's alpha coefficient was higher than 0.7, which shows the consistency between items and the confirmation of reliability. To examine the data, an exploratory factor analysis was performed using LISREL. According to the results, the data obtained was adequately adjusted with the factor structure of the indicator of productivity of human resources and the items of this indicator were consistent with the construction of the infrastructure. The results of the subscales showed that the indicators of motivation (89.34), ability (87.15) and credibility (80.05) were respectively in first to third place in terms of level of human resources of the executive organizations of Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad. In conclusion, it is suggested to emphasize the importance of competent and efficient human resources to improve organizational productivity and motivate human resources working in the executive organizations of Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad to work more and be more efficient using material and spiritual incentives.
