Abstract:
Objective To understand the level of job satisfaction and work engagement of physicians in public hospitals, to analyze the interaction between job satisfaction and work engagement, and to discuss how each dimension of job satisfaction affects work engagement so as to provide information and reference for improving the level of work engagement of physicians in public hospitals.
Methods Covering 6 public hospitals in Sichuan (3 tertiary-level hospitals and 3 secondary-level hospitals), 638 questionnaires were obtained from physicians through convenient sampling for data description and analysis. Pearson correlation method was used to analyze the correlation between job satisfaction and work engagement, and multiple linear stepwise regression method was used to analyze work engagement and the influencing factors of each dimension.
Results With regard to job satisfaction, physicians showed high levels of satisfaction in personal safety (3.77±0.87), leadership identification and support (3.59±0.77), and job pressure (3.51±0.81). The mean points of work engagement and each dimension were as follows: total mean points of work engagement (4.02±0.99), dedication (4.21±1.13), absorption (4.19±1.08) and vigor (3.63±1.04). In job satisfaction, salary and benefits, work environment, social recognition, organizational management, leadership identification and support are positively correlated to work engagement and all dimensions. In job satisfaction, 5 dimensions, including social recognition, leadership recognition and support, work achievement, personal safety and organizational management, had a significant influence on work engagement and all dimensions.
Conclusion Emphasis on the high-level needs for recognition and self-actualization of doctors, doctor-patient communication, and personal development of doctors may improve doctors' job satisfaction and work engagement.
