Results from a questionnaire study on work conditions, job satisfaction, job influence, health and well-being, based on a representative sample of 3,500 Swedish nurses, indicate a high rate of overall job satisfaction. High decision latitude, consistency between work assignments and education, as well as low sickness absenteeism did all associate with high job satisfaction, number of working years did not. Compared to nurses satisfied with their jobs, twice as many sick days were found among those dissatisfied. Greater job influence related to lower job demands, more stimulating work and skills development as well as more responsibility and involvement. Anxiety and depression, intellectual satisfaction, job demands, job control and perceived general health explained 22% of the total variance in job satisfaction. The study has identified some key factors influencing overall job satisfaction. By focusing on these, job satisfaction among nurses should improve.
一项基于3500名瑞典护士的代表性样本开展的关于工作条件、工作满意度、工作影响力、健康与幸福感的问卷调查结果显示，总体工作满意度较高。较高的决策自由度、工作任务与教育背景的一致性以及较低的病假缺勤率均与较高的工作满意度相关，而工作年限并非如此。与对工作满意的护士相比，不满意的护士病假天数是前者的两倍。更大的工作影响力与更低的工作要求、更具激励性的工作和技能发展以及更多的责任和参与度相关。焦虑和抑郁、智力满意度、工作要求、工作控制和感知到的总体健康状况解释了工作满意度总方差的22%。该研究确定了一些影响总体工作满意度的关键因素。通过关注这些因素，护士的工作满意度应该会得到提高。
