In number flexibility, the hospital recruited contingent workers to resolve the manpower shortage. In time flexibility, part-timers could fit the vacancy in manpower of numbers and some intervals times. Estimate the cost¡Gthe part-timers part could save about NT$ 2 million dollars per year, but the temporary-contract part paid more around NT$1 million dollars in recruitment. The part-timers in moral commitment, calculative commitment, working condition and performance are below than the formal staffs. In educational level, the occupational staffs are higher than the university level staffs, but no different about job satisfaction.

A Study on the Factors of Internal Service Quality--Nurse for example

Cheng, Yu-Hui 27 August 2001 (has links)
The competition between product and service procedure is more and more alike. Because it is difficult to distinguish the differences between hospitals on both tangible product and service procedure, the most important is service of employee. The service of employee is a competitive advantage and is hard to copy. Azzohlini (1993) mentioned the function quality and response of internal employee were important resources that revealed the discrepancy between each enterprise and the competitive advantage of it. Heskett, et al. (1994) mentioned that the model was related to the concept of service-profit chain. They thought the internal service quality to employees would strengthen the satisfaction, royalty and productivity of employees, then creating high service value. High service value brought out high external customer satisfaction and royalty. That is why the internal service quality is so important to organizational profit and revenue growth. And most of the researchers agree that only satisfied employees can create satisfied customers. In Taiwan, the government has advanced the system of medical insurance, so the need of medical treatment is expanding. The service of hospital includes facility and employee. When the patient enter the hospital for their disease, many employees have to take care of them. The employees are doctors, pharmacists, nurses, administrative staff, and so on. The greater part of employees is nurses. They are the front line to contact with and care for patient. The service of nurse is very important and is hard to copy. Researchers have found many factors of external service quality and developed measuring methods for service quality from the perspective of customers ( Parasuraman, Zeithaml & Berry, 1985; George & Gronroos, 1989¡F Heskett, 1990). In the meantime, the measurement of internal service quality was hardly mentioned. Yes, some researcher paid attention to this topic. They discussed the significance of internal service quality from other researches or their own observation. But we need more information about it. So this research tries to find the factors of internal service quality and explores the relationship between the internal service quality, the job satisfaction, the service ability and external service quality. After interviewing nurses, we integrated the data of the interviews and the exploration of other research papers to develop the questionnaire. The questionnaire had been filled out by the nurses who work in large-scale hospital. We induce the following results: (1) The factors of internal service quality are as follows: the style of management, the contact with other department, the training, the support of nursing department, the reward, the correct and definite responsibility, the resources, the content of job and the target of hospital. (2) The service ability include the professional knowledge, techniques and attitude. (3) The factors of external service quality about employee include the content of service and the efficiency of service. (4) Because of different personal characteristic, nurses have different recognition to factors of internal service quality except the training and the support of nursing department. (5) The different personal characteristic may brings out different recognition of service ability, job satisfaction. (6) The different personal characteristic may brings out different recognition of factors of external service quality about employee. (7) The correlation between factors of internal service quality, service ability and job satisfaction is positive except the training and the content of job. (8) The regression models that include internal service quality-service ability model, internal service quality-job satisfaction model, internal service quality-content of service model and internal service quality- efficiency of service model are significant. (9) For full model, the structure of model is fit except the direct relationship between internal service quality and external service quality about employee. We think the relationship is transmitted by job satisfaction and service ability.

The service quality has always been a competitive tool emphasized by the organizations among the service sectors. Therefore, the primary service personnel turn to be the key factor deciding whether the service quality is good or not. Rafaeli & Sutton (1989) thought that customers viewed a whole and overall impression on those organizations out of the emotions expressed by the employees.

The Relationship among Transformational Leadership, Locus of Control, and Job Satisfaction: A Case Study on Taiwanese Television Reporters

Hsiang, Pin-Ho 05 February 2002 (has links)
Abstract Leadership and job satisfaction are significantly influential in the success of media and any other organizations. A case study looking into the media organizations of Taiwan can be interesting owing to its specific media environment, since the lifting of the martial law brought forth a liberal public sphere and prosperous media market, accompanying with a growing number of media workers and severe competition. To survive and aim for a longer-term development in such a moment, a well-managed human resource seems to be even more critical, which brings the importance to leadership and job satisfaction in an organization as argued in the beginning. To further explore the issue, this dissertation takes the reporters of terrestrial and satellite television corporations as research object, and examines the relations of three variables ¡V transformational leadership, locus of control, and job satisfaction, with the research method of questionnaire. The findings are listed as below: 1. Wage and seniority as demographical variables significantly affect the perception of transformational leadership. 2. Wage and position as demographical variables significantly affect job satisfaction. 3. The relationship between transformational leadership and job satisfaction has positive correlation. 4. The relationship between locus of control and job satisfaction has positive correlation. 5. The relationship among transformational leadership, locus of control, and job satisfaction has positive correlation; the locus of control is the important factor enhancing the positive correlation between transformational leadership and job satisfaction. According to the above results, to promote job satisfaction and organizational performance accordingly, transformational leadership is suggested in the management of news production divisions. Compared with workers of other industries, reporters are more exposed to time pressure and sense of being alienated with their organizations and colleagues; to release the tension and thus effectively promote job satisfaction of their reporters, leaders of news production divisions should put more stress on consideration. Later researchers might consider a dimensional study or comparative studies among different types of media organization, which would enrich the empirical studies and reinforce the application of theories of transformational leadership.
