The main purpose of this study is to examine the relationship of Psychological Safety (PS) and Organizational Politics Perception (OPP) with Compulsory Citizenship Behavior (CCB). In order to investigate whether CCB exists or not in Turkish institutions, 27 item-OCB scale is considered with its dimensions and asked with an introduction that whether the respondents have experienced any pressure for displaying these behaviors. Moreover, the potential pressures such as respondents’ oneself, family, coworkers, organizational climate and supervisor were asked. Participants are composed of 170 employees working in Turkish finance institutions. CCB scale is divided into three factors which are labeled as Compulsory Harmony, Compulsory Devotion and Compulsory Conscientiousness. According to the results, PS does not make significant contribution on CCB but OPP makes a significant contribution. Results showed that CCB are not high among finance employees. However, employees mostly put pressure on themselves and secondly they feel the pressure of their family responsibilities for displaying CCB. Besides, self and family pressure both do not make significant contribution on CCB and its dimensions but manager, successful coworker and organizational climate pressures make significant contribution on CCB.
