Relationship between job stress and burnout: Moderating effect of leadership behaviorYau, Yu 20 July 2010 (has links)
In 2007, China Airline held its flight attendance recruitment with 135 openings, being applied by a total of 6000 applicants, accounting for 2 percent of the acceptance. (China Airlines, 2007) Due to the global financial turmoil, China Airlines has frozen personnel employ in 2008. With the economic recovery in 2009, Taiwan and China has expanded their flight connections by implementing direct cross-strait scheduled flights and opening up new flight corridors.
In May 2010, China Airlines recruit native flight crew again. Of the 5,338 people who registered online, only 92 will be recruited. The acceptance rate is lower than 2 %. (China Airlines, 2010) The statistics indicates that the flight attendance is still one of the most coveted jobs for young people. According to the perception of social stratification, the flight attendance is deemed to a mid or high level occupation, featured high salary, more day-off, opportunities to travel around the world and a well-establish welfare system, which make it a dream job. The elegant manner and poised service performed by the attendance are the direct advertisement for airlines; thus, they are, in other words, the soldiers in the frontline to the company. However, the pressure and problems from work hidden under the beautiful suits are overlooked. (§Eºü¼w¡A2004)
Airline companies always face fierce competition, especially in Asia, where customer service is highly valued. Inflight service is widely different from other service industries. Starting from the moment of closing the boarding gate, flight attendances have to quickly build up the teamwork and meet the needs of passengers with limited resources and time by using their professional knowledge. Their working pressure goes without saying. Therefore, the chief purser plays a critical role in the team, whose leadership will intensely influence the outcome of inflight service and team coordination. A professional chief purser ought to equip with strong management ability of immediate response and reaction.
The purpose of this project is study how the leadership style of a chief purser would moderate the job pressure flight attendances may face during work, and further enhance the satisfaction of inflight service and in the long run, to attract more customers and increase customer returning rate.

A study of the influence of a different performance system on technical employees' job pressure and job satisfaction - A case of Chunghwa Telecom Southern Region BranchLin, Yau-tzung 29 June 2006 (has links)
When Chunghwa Telecom became privatized in August 2005, the performance evaluation system, which was in place for over 40 years, was overhauled. The new system, for the first time, was gravitated toward staff marketing. The staff¡¦s personal marketing performance was the basis for annual performance evaluation. The implementation of this system would dramatically change the staff workplace behavior, and directly influences the staff job pressure and job satisfaction. These issues are worthy of in-depth study.
The study was undertaken by means of a questionnaire survey. Stratified random sampling technique was applied to draw a sample of the technical staff (the subject of the study) in the South Region Branch of Chunghwa Telecom. The influence on job pressure and job satisfaction resulting from changes in the performance evaluation system was evaluated. Data collected were analyzed by SPSS 10.0 for Windows. Reliability analysis, paired-t test, analysis of variance and regression analysis were performed. Major findings are outlined below:
1. The overall job pressure before implementing the new performance system was low.
2. Change in the performance system showed significant influence on job pressure; job pressure was increased.
3. Increase in ¡§work load¡¨ was the main contributor of overall increase in job pressure. The general perception that ¡§the personal marketing target set by the company was too high¡¨, was the main source of pressure.
4. Change in the performance system showed significant influence on job satisfaction; overall job satisfaction decreased.
5. Change in the performance system showed no influence on internal satisfaction. Staff is mostly dissatisfied with lack of job stability and security.
6. Job pressure showed significant influence on job satisfaction in the new system.
7. ¡§Job condition¡¨ was the most significant factor influencing job satisfaction.
8. The job pressure of medium to high level supervisory staff was smaller than non-supervisory staff, job satisfaction was higher than non-supervisory staff.
This report is the first study ever conducted on the job pressure and job satisfaction of technical employee of Chunghwa Telecom after its privatization. The results of this study are useful as a reference to managers in drafting and reviewing policies. It is suggested that the staff work load should be redesigned to eliminate factors that cause job pressure. Work conditions should be improved and group agreements signed to promote job security, increase job satisfaction, enhance job efficiency, and, motivate staff performance.

警察機關採購人員工作意識之研究 / The Work Ideology of the Police Organizational Procurer黃秀法 Unknown Date (has links)
我政府為因應世界貿易之趨勢,在1999年5月27日正式施行政府採購法,為健全我國政府採購制度,建立新的里程碑。
警察本身是執法人員,代表國家執行公權力,原本採購人員不僅在個人品操上,就要有高於法律標準的品格與道德訴求,也要對採購工作有熱誠,方足以勝任及實現採購制度變革之目標,但如長期處於高工作壓力,將可能形成有經驗的採購人員不願意久任,或單位出缺不容易徵才的窘境,因此,因應此種新情勢的變革,對於警察機關辦理採購人員在心理壓力、工作滿足及工作投入等將會產生何種衝擊,自是一項值得重視的課題。
本研究由相關文獻回顧著手,再用問卷設計及訪談法加以研究。首先以問卷調查方式,對警察機關承辦採購金額超過新台幣10萬元以上,需辦理公開招標業務者進行普測,計發出問卷264份,回收254份,有效回收率為96%。問卷內容旨在探討政府採購法立法之後,對警察機關採購人員工作壓力、工作投入、工作滿足、工作倫理及休閒之影響,並針對影響採購人員工作滿足及個人對此問題重視程度,對於研究結果採取「理想型」之建構模式,計分為3種類型。
一、第Ⅰ類型:重視且滿足,有12題。
即1.我對於同仁間能相互協助支援、2.我對於工作能獲得上司的支持、3.我對於能從工作中得到成就感、4.下班後我有時間安排休閒生活、5.下班後我有良好的家庭生活、6.自己能成為單位重要的一員、7.我能達成機關的採購任務、8.採購工作經驗能提升我的工作能力、9.採購法實施後採購作業環境獲得改善、10.採購工作使我有個人成長及進步的機會、11.我對採購法律的認知,足以處理現在的工作、12.我對於需求單位所提規格不週延,導致履約爭議感到困擾。
二、第Ⅱ類型:重視但不滿足,有10題。
即1.對於工作忙碌程度、2.對於工作責任負擔、3.對於職務的晉升機會、4.對於工作獎勵和他單位相較的合理性、5.對於工作分擔範圍的合理性、6.採購工作讓我感到樂在其中、7.採購工作提供自我表現的機會、8.工作能實現我的理想、9.工作能合乎家人的期望、10.覺得與外勤工作「績效」壓力相較,採購業務不像外勤工作有「績效」壓力。
三、第Ⅲ類型:不重視也不滿足,有1題,即辦理採購工作使我能受到他人肯定。
而第Ⅰ及第Ⅲ種類型的項目,對採購人員而言,其意涵容易理解,故本研究僅針對第Ⅱ類型(重視但不滿足)的項目,進一步透過深入訪談加以深究。
根據研究結果,提出以下建議:
一、對立法者及主管機關的建議:由國家考試舉才,專才專用;檢討法令、提高公告門檻;設立專業加給之獎勵制度。
二、對警察教育單位的建議:在警察大學及警察專科學校開設採購法相關課程供同學選修,俾能在離校後銜接實務工作,也希望能在學校開設講習課程提供現職同仁在職進修,以利採購人員對採購法的認知與熟悉。
三、對警察機關的建議:多給激勵,舒解壓力;將採購法令,排入常訓;加強宣導,以正視聽;公開表揚、提昇士氣。
四、對警察機關採購人員的建議:學習心理調適;增進專業技能,不斷吸收新知;加強服務利他觀念;採購人員倫理準則,務必遵守。
關鍵字:警察機關、採購人員、工作壓力、工作投入、工作滿足、工作倫理、工作與休閒
