The purpose of this study is to explore the influence of spirituality (and its dimensions) on sustainability in the educational sector, in addition to examining the role of socio-demographic factors. Design/methodology/approach A quantitative research design was employed using a structured questionnaire. The data were analysed through independent t-tests, analysis of variance, correlation analysis and structural equation modelling (SEM) to assess relationships between socio-demographic factors, workspace spirituality and sustainability. Findings The study found no significant differences in sustainability levels across gender, age or years of work experience. However, significant differences in workspace spirituality were observed between males and females, and across different age groups and experience levels. Positive correlations were found between workspace spirituality and dimensions such as compassion, transcendence and meaningful work, while mindfulness showed a negative correlation. SEM results further indicated that compassion and meaningful work positively influence sustainability, while mindfulness negatively affects it. Transcendence, however, showed no significant impact. Research limitations/implications The study highlights the deep interconnection between spirituality and sustainability and how socio-demographic factors shape this relationship. It provides insights for educational institutions to foster spiritually enriching environments that not only enhance academic outcomes but also promote ethical awareness, personal growth and environmental responsibility. Originality/value This research uniquely bridges gaps between spirituality, sustainability and employee demographics, offering practical implications for creating spiritually fulfilling and sustainable workspaces in the educational sector. 2026 Emerald Publishing Limited Subject The topic of the resource Communal benefits; Employee Well-being; Organizational Performance; Sense of Community; Spirituality in action; Sustainability as a lifestyle; Workplace spirituality Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Emerald Publishing Relation A related resource ISSN: 9696474; Language A language of the resource English Type The nature or genre of the resource Article Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource Restricted Access; Hardcopy may be available in the library Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource online
