Quality of work-life is an important factor in the recruitment and retention of the nursing workforce and their work productivity.
This study aimed to identify factors that affect the quality of work-life of nurses.
In this correlational study, 239 nurses employed in a tertiary teaching hospital in Iran completed the study questionnaires, including the quality of work-life questionnaire. The associations between potential independent variables and quality of work-life were examined using multivariate regression analysis.
Participants were mostly women (80.33%) and within the age range of 30-45 years (71.54%). Working in other hospitals, having a second job and health information-seeking behaviours were significant predictors of quality of work-life, explaining 28.68% of the total variance in quality of work-life of nurses.
Improving working standards may prevent nurses from working extra hours or in different occupations. This, along with facilitating the health information-seeking behaviours of nurses, may help improve their quality of work-life by maintaining a better work-life balance and acquiring knowledge and skills that can help with effective management of work and life commitments.
工作生活质量是护理人员招聘、留用及其工作效率的重要因素。
本研究旨在确定影响护士工作生活质量的因素。
在这项相关性研究中,伊朗一家三级教学医院的239名护士完成了研究问卷,包括工作生活质量问卷。使用多元回归分析检验潜在自变量与工作生活质量之间的关联。
参与者大多为女性(80.33%),年龄在30至45岁之间(71.54%)。在其他医院工作、从事第二份工作以及健康信息寻求行为是工作生活质量的显著预测因素,解释了护士工作生活质量总方差的28.68%。
提高工作标准可能会防止护士加班或从事不同职业。这一点,再加上促进护士的健康信息寻求行为,可能有助于通过保持更好的工作生活平衡以及获取有助于有效管理工作和生活责任的知识和技能来提高他们的工作生活质量。
