Local government officials play a central role in post-disaster community reconstruction. However, few studies have reported on the actual difficulties during a complex disaster involving a nuclear accident. A self-rated questionnaire survey was administered to a total of 583 public employees in four municipalities around the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station. The relationship between universal occupational factors and radiation disaster-specific factors on job satisfaction and intention to leave the job due to radiation anxiety was evaluated using structural equation modeling. The results showed that interpersonal problems (β = -0.246) and service years (β = -0.127) were related to job satisfaction, whereas radiation-specific factors were not related to job satisfaction, and only to the intention to leave work due to radiation anxiety. A sense of coherence was associated with job satisfaction (β = 0.373) and intention to leave work due to radiation anxiety (β = -0.182), and it served as a moderator of the universal occupational factors and the radiation disaster-specific factors. Therefore, it is suggested that outcomes could be improved through increased stress coping capacity by providing support for relationships and radiation risk communication to public employees during the disaster recovery period.
地方政府官员在灾后社区重建中发挥着核心作用。然而，很少有研究报道过涉及核事故的复杂灾害期间的实际困难。我们对福岛第一核电站周边四个市的 583 名公职人员进行了自我评估问卷调查。使用结构方程模型评估了普遍职业因素和辐射灾害特定因素对工作满意度和因辐射焦虑而离职意愿的关系。结果表明，人际关系问题（β=-0.246）和服务年限（β=-0.127）与工作满意度相关，而辐射特定因素与工作满意度无关，仅与因辐射焦虑而离职意愿相关。心理一致感与工作满意度（β=0.373）和因辐射焦虑而离职意愿（β=-0.182）相关，它是普遍职业因素和辐射灾害特定因素的调节因素。因此，建议在灾难恢复期间通过为公职人员提供关系支持和辐射风险沟通，来提高他们的应对压力的能力，从而改善结果。
