Job satisfaction is an important predictor for management and clinical ratios. Although it is accepted that is affected by many aspects, the influence of social capital remains to be determined. The main purpose of the article is to examine the relationship between job satisfaction and individual social capital for employees offering services in the treatment of addiction.
A cross-sectional study was conducted on 239 employees from 14 therapeutic programs at KETEA (Therapy Center for Dependent Individuals in Greece) (KETHEA). A revised Greek Version of the Social Capital Questionnaire (SCQ-G) for the individual social capital measurement, and of the Job Satisfaction Survey (JSS) for the job satisfaction measurement, were used.
Individual Social Capital ranged in medium levels. We observed a significant positive association between social capital and its' different aspects and gender, age, place of residence and working experience. Men, older employees, those who lived in smaller places, and those working more years, reached higher levels of individual social capital. Concerning overall job satisfaction most of the participants were ambivalent (61.5%), while 21.8% were satisfied and 16.7% were dissatisfied. Concerning its separate aspects, 77% were least satisfied with pay, 69.9% were least satisfied with advancement opportunities, 60.3% were least satisfied with fringe benefits, 85.8% were most satisfied with the nature of their work, 80.8% with their relationship with colleagues, and 77.8% were satisfied with supervision. Total Job Satisfaction was positively associated with place of residence and monthly salary. A significant positive correlation between social capital and job satisfaction was also observed.
Early evidence suggests that social capital is associated with job satisfaction of employees providing services in the treatment of substance abuse. Further research, regarding social capital on job satisfaction, is suggested. We need to design and implement individual and organizational interventions for the empowerment of Social Capital.
工作满意度是管理和临床比率的重要预测指标。尽管人们公认它受到许多方面的影响，但社会资本的影响仍有待确定。本文的主要目的是研究为成瘾治疗提供服务的员工的工作满意度与个人社会资本之间的关系。
对希腊成瘾者治疗中心（KETEA）14个治疗项目的239名员工进行了横断面研究。使用了修订后的希腊版个人社会资本测量问卷（SCQ-G）和工作满意度测量问卷（JSS）。
个人社会资本处于中等水平。我们观察到社会资本及其不同方面与性别、年龄、居住地点和工作经验之间存在显著的正相关。男性、年龄较大的员工、居住在较小地方的员工以及工作年限较长的员工，其个人社会资本水平较高。关于总体工作满意度，大多数参与者态度矛盾（61.5%），而21.8%的人满意，16.7%的人不满意。关于其各个方面，77%的人对薪酬最不满意，69.9%的人对晋升机会最不满意，60.3%的人对福利待遇最不满意，85.8%的人对工作性质最满意，80.8%的人对与同事的关系最满意，77.8%的人对监督最满意。总体工作满意度与居住地点和月工资呈正相关。还观察到社会资本与工作满意度之间存在显著的正相关。
早期证据表明，社会资本与提供药物滥用治疗服务的员工的工作满意度相关。建议进一步研究社会资本对工作满意度的影响。我们需要设计和实施个人及组织干预措施，以增强社会资本。
