Senior management is an effective tool for strengthening organizational accountability in public organizations. Implementation to enhance accountability remains unclear in most organizations and includes many complex processes due to the disruption of multiple accountability regulations. This study aims to provide an understanding of how regulatory accountability improves employee accountability, by highlighting key elements of the organization that reduce turmoil, employee dysfunction, and social loafing. This study adopts a qualitative approach to the study of staff groups using a set of regulations imposed by the organization. The data was collected usinga questionnaire that includedsemi-organized andorganized interviews andreviews ofobservations atAl-Sadr General Hospital. The results revealed that the dimensions of organizational accountability that mitigate social loafing are classified into four, namely: informal accountability, official accountability, decision accountability, and process accountability; as the task of official accountability is seen as difficult, and can affect social loafing in a positiveway, because group membersfeel itis necessary to make aneffort andcontribute tothe team'sperformance, because their contributionis unique andnecessary to the group'sfinal outcome, although theparticipantshave been randomly selected. This study contributes, and gives greater insight, into how to deal with social loafing in the accountability relationships that exist in research, by providing many elements of success that reduce the chaos of accountability relationships in public institutions.
