Background and Objective: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between perceived fit of nurses and organizational citizenship behavior. Material and Methods: The statistical population of this correlational study was all nurses of Shiraz hospitals in 2011. The participants were 170 nurses selected via cluster random sampling and asked to fill out the questionnaires. The data was analyzed by Pearson correlation and regression analysis. Results: The results indicated that there is a significant positive relationship between all three types of perceived fit and organizational citizenship behavior (P≤0.01). Furthermore, regression analysis showed that variables of person-organization, person-group, and person-job were able to predict 0.274 of organizational citizenship behavior. Person-organization perceived fit was the best predictor of organizational citizenship behavior. 
Conclusion: Since the increase of perceived fit has an important role in organizational citizenship behavior, the managers should consider the importance of this issue in their programs.
