Abstract
This research investigates the extent of organizational trust among employees at Sonelgaz in Setif province, centering on the core inquiry: What constitutes the current level of organizational trust at Sonelgaz?

This questionnaire, comprising 30 items divided into three dimensions, trust in top management, trust in supervisors, and trust among coworkers, was administered to a randomly chosen simple sample of 30 employees. The findings indicate a low level of organizational trust within Sonelgaz, with negligible variances in trust levels despite differences in personal attributes such as gender, marital status, and seniority.
