The purpose of this study was to enhance understanding of the impact of individual and environmental variables on job satisfaction among people with severe mental illness employed in social enterprises.
A total of 248 individuals with severe mental illness employed by social enterprises agreed to take part in the study.
We used logistic regression to analyse job satisfaction. A model with job satisfaction as the dependent variable, and both individual (occupational self-efficacy and severity of symptoms perceived) and environmental (workplace) factors (provision of workplace accommodations, social support from co-workers, organizational constraints) as well as external factors (family support) as predictors, was tested on the entire sample.
All findings across the study suggest a significant positive impact of both individual and environmental factors on job satisfaction. People with higher occupational self-efficacy who were provided with workplace accommodations and received greater social support were more likely to experience greater job satisfaction.
These results suggest that certain features of social enterprises, such as workplace accommodations, are important in promoting job satisfaction in people with severe mental illness. Further studies are warranted to expand knowledge of the workplace features that support employees with severe mental illness in their work integration process.
本研究旨在增进对个体和环境变量对受雇于社会企业的重度精神疾病患者工作满意度影响的理解。
共有248名受雇于社会企业的重度精神疾病患者同意参与本研究。
我们使用逻辑回归分析工作满意度。以工作满意度为因变量，个体因素（职业自我效能感和感知到的症状严重程度）、环境因素（工作场所）（工作场所便利设施的提供、同事的社会支持、组织限制）以及外部因素（家庭支持）作为预测变量构建模型，并在整个样本上进行检验。
整个研究的所有结果表明，个体和环境因素对工作满意度均有显著的积极影响。职业自我效能感较高、获得工作场所便利设施且得到更多社会支持的人更有可能体验到更高的工作满意度。
这些结果表明，社会企业的某些特征，如工作场所便利设施，对于提高重度精神疾病患者的工作满意度很重要。有必要进一步开展研究，以扩大对支持重度精神疾病员工融入工作过程的工作场所特征的认识。
