摘要
The level of satisfaction received on the job is highly essential in the discharge of duty. Nurses' respected level of job satisfaction improves turnover, commitment, and patient satisfaction. This study assesses factors affecting job satisfaction among nurses at the University of Medical Science Teaching Hospital, Ondo, Nigeria, to identify factors responsible for job satisfaction. The study utilizes the Index of Work Satisfaction with few modifications. Questionnaires were distributed to 154 sample respondents across different units of the hospital. Cronbach's Alpha is used to validate the internal consistency of the instrument. Data coding and cleaning were done using Microsoft Excel, and analysis was done with SPSS (version 23). The percentage is used to explore the responses. In contrast, independent sample t tests and one-way analysis of variance are used to assess variations across different sociodemographic groups of the respondents. Results show that higher percentages of the respondents are dissatisfied with their job because of issues relating to salary and benefits. Workload and Administrative & management bottlenecks also sometimes contribute to job dissatisfaction. Professional pride and colleague relationships are not significant factors that affect job satisfaction. To retain the best hands in the hospital, the management is advised to constantly look into issues relating to salary and benefits for the nurses. They are also advised to look into the processes and procedures for career advancement and pay upgrades in the hospital.
