Abstract

Identifying the factors between nursing work environment and emotional labor to job satisfaction for nurses in public hospitals, 176 nurses who worked at six medical centers in Gyeonggi-do as study subjects were selected. The data was analyzed using descriptive statistics, ANOVA, t-test, post-test Scheffe's test, and multiple regression analysis with SPSS/WIN program(23.0). In the results to identify the factors that influence the job satisfaction, the better the nursing work environment(β=.797, p=.000) and the lower the degree of emotional labor(β=-.089, p=.045), the higher the job satisfaction. Additionally, job satisfaction increased when nurses cared the fewer number of patients. To increase job satisfaction for nurses, the policy should be considered to care fewer patients per a nurse, improve work environment and decrease emotional labor.

공공병원 간호사의 직무만족과 관련 있는 요인 중 간호근무환경과 감정노동의 영향 정도를 파악하는 것이 연구의 목적이다. 연구 대상 선정은 G도의 공공의료원 6개 병원에 근무하고 있는 176명의 간호사를 편의 표집하였다. 자료는 기술통계, t-test, 분산분석과 다중회귀분석을 SPSS/WIN프로그램을 이용하여 분석하였다. 연구결과는 한 명의 간호사가 담당하는 평균 환자 수는 12명이었고, 공공병원 간호사의 직무만족에 영향을 주는 요인으로 간호하는 환자의 수가 적을수록 직무만족이 통계적으로 유의하게 높았고(β=-.092, p<.05), 간호근무환경이 좋을수록(β=.797, p=.000), 감정노동의 정도가 낮을수록(β=-.089, p=.045) 직무만족이 통계적으로 유의하게 높았다. 그러므로 간호사의 직무만족을 높이기 위해 간호사 일 인당 환자수의 감소, 간호근무환경 향상 그리고 감정노동 정도를 완화시키는 대책이 필요할 것이다.
