The relationship among the sense of calling workload and work satisfaction¢wtaking police officer as the example

The purpose of this study is focus on the relationship among the sense of calling, workload and work satisfaction. Using police officers as the research subject, this study also intends to discuss the concept and the importance of the sense of calling. The results of this study show that older and married male, with longer tenure and higher ranking, seem to display higher degree of the sense of calling. Furthermore, the results also indicate that the sense of calling is positively related to work satisfaction, and surprisingly, is positively related to workload as well, which may imply the opposite sides of the influences of the sense of calling. Considering the strong link among the sense of calling, workload, and work satisfaction, it is believed that the sense of calling might play a critical role in the working context. Also, the concept of the sense of calling may differ from the previous illustration under the Chinese culture and in the specific occupational context, i.e. police; therefore, it should be worth to discuss in the future studies.
