| Sumario: | The present study aimed to identify the impact of the apartheid wall on the productivity of Al- Quds University employees. The impact of the apartheid wall was evaluated using a 24- item scale as an index developed by the two researchers. The scale was administrated to one hundred and thirty-six randomly selected full-time Jerusalemite employees at Al-Quds University. The findings revealed that 79% of the employees surveyed were negatively affected by the apartheid wall which impacted on the Al-Quds University employee's productivity from the time required to reach the university to the construction of the apartheid wall. The apartheid wall emerged as a significant predictor of the lack of productivity among its employees. The implications of the findings and guidelines for future empirical research are discussed. |
