The results of this study state that: workplace spirituality has a negative and insignificant effect on employee wellbeing. Workplace spirituality has a positive and significant effect on organizational identification. There is a positive and significant influence between workplace spirituality and workforce agility. Organizational identification has a positive and significant effect on employee wellbeing. Workforce agility has a positive and significant effect on employee wellbeing. Organizational identification mediates the relationship between workplace spirituality and employee wellbeing. Workforce agility mediates the relationship between workplace spirituality and employee wellbeing. Managerial implications need to improve the practice of spirituality in the workplace by strengthening employee identification with the organization and developing work agility (workforce agility), because both have been proven to significantly improve employee wellbeing even though spirituality itself does not have a direct impact.
