Introduction: According tothe Global Mental Health Movement, security provides a coherent conceptual framework and an ethical basis for the development of the mental health system. Therefore, mediating the role of the sense of security in the relationship of psychological capital and social capital with social health was investigated among government employees in Shiraz. Materials and Methods: In this descriptive-correlational (structural equation) model, 705 government employees (255 females and 450 males) in Shiraz were selected as the sample group. Data were collected by Psychological Capital, Standard Social Capital, Security Feeling, and Social Health Questionnaires. The analysis of data was performed with the aid of Pearson’s correlation coefficient and structural equation modeling using the SPSS 20 and LISREL 8.80 software. Results: The results showed no statistically significant difference between the gender, age, and workplace of the study subjects (P > 0.05). Also, the performance indices were in good condition at REMSA = 0.01, GFI = 0.96, CFI = 0.91, RFI = 0.90, and NFI = 0.91. Standard coefficients of the direct and indirect effects of psychological and social capital on social health were significant based on the feeling of security (P < 0.05 for both). Conclusion: Our findings revealed that health reflects social factors and a sense of security, and the improvement of social health is dependent on providing and strengthening a sense of security.
