Job satisfaction of registered nurses

A questionnaire survey of a stratified random sample
(n=180) of registered nurses employed at two hospitals
in the Australian Capital Territory was conducted to
identify factors contributing to their job satisfaction
and measure levels of satisfaction of registered nurses
Grade 1, Grade 2 and Grade 3. The response rate was
75%.
The survey found that registered nurses were satisfied
with the scheduling, opportunities to utilize skills,
working conditions, working relationships, leadership,
decision making on patient care and intrinsic components
of Job satisfaction and dissatisfied with the salary
component.
Registered nurses Grade 2 were more satisfied than the
Grade 3 group and registered nurses Grade 1 were least
satisfied (P=< .05).
