To investigate the relationship between job crafting and work engagement among hospital nurses.
Job crafting is a relatively advanced job redesign concept, and few studies have investigated it among nurses.
This is a cross-sectional study. A total of 636 nurses were recruited from one hospital in Saudi Arabia. Of them, 608 (95.6%) completed self-administered, online questionnaires. The questionnaire assessed participants' socio-demographic data, job crafting and work engagement. Structured equation modelling (SEM) was used to examine the association between job crafting and work engagement.
Data from 549 nurses were analysed. Most of the participants (85.1%) were females, and their mean scores of job crafting and work engagement were 3.54 ± 0.5 and 4.77 ± 1.1, respectively. The SEM revealed that job crafting accounted for 57% of the variance of work engagement.
Job crafting is a significant determinant of nurses' work engagement.
Supporting staff nurses to employ job crafting behaviours would positively improve their work engagement. This may include, but is not limited to, helping nurses to bargain a significance in their labour, reforming the work pattern in a manner that lines up with organisational objectives and employing an innovative managerial style.
探讨医院护士工作重塑与工作投入的关系。
工作重塑是一种相对先进的工作设计理念，针对护士的研究较少。
这是一项横断面研究。共招募来自沙特阿拉伯一家医院的 636 名护士，其中 608 名（95.6%）完成了在线自我管理问卷。问卷评估了参与者的社会人口统计学数据、工作重塑和工作投入。结构方程模型（SEM）用于检验工作重塑与工作投入之间的关联。
对 549 名护士的数据进行了分析。大多数参与者（85.1%）为女性，他们的工作重塑和工作投入平均得分分别为 3.54±0.5 和 4.77±1.1。SEM 显示，工作重塑占工作投入方差的 57%。
工作重塑是护士工作投入的重要决定因素。
支持在职护士采用工作重塑行为将积极提高他们的工作投入。这可能包括但不限于帮助护士在工作中争取更大的意义，按照组织目标调整工作模式，并采用创新的管理风格。
