Abstract

This study examined the relationship between job crafting and work engagement among employees at Bina Kasih General Hospital based on the Job Demands–Resources (JD-R) Theory. Although previous research has demonstrated a positive association between job crafting and work engagement, the underlying empirical evidence remains limited, particularly in healthcare contexts in developing countries. A total of N = 122 hospital employees participated in this study using a purposive sampling technique. Data were collected using the Job Crafting Scale based on the Tims and Bakker model and the Work Engagement Scale based on the Schaufeli and Bakker framework. Both instruments showed good internal consistency (α = 0.920 for job crafting; α = 0.849 for work engagement). Data were analyzed using Pearson product-moment correlation via IBM SPSS Statistics 22. The results revealed a significant positive relationship between job crafting and work engagement (r = 0.735, p < .001), indicating that employees who actively modify and optimize their work tend to demonstrate higher levels of work engagement. These findings contribute to the extension of the JD-R model and provide practical implications for enhancing employee engagement in hospital settings through the promotion of job crafting behaviors.

Abstract

This study aimed to examine the relationship between Job Demands and Workplace Well-Being among nurses at RSU Bina Kasih Medan based on the Job Demands–Resources (JD-R) Theory framework. This correlational quantitative study involved 121 nurses selected using a total sampling technique. Data were collected using validated and reliable Job Demands and Workplace Well-Being scales and analyzed using Pearson Product–Moment correlation analysis. The results revealed a very strong and statistically significant negative relationship between Job Demands and Workplace Well-Being (r = −.915, p < .001, 95% CI [−.94, −.88]). These findings indicate that higher levels of job demands are closely associated with lower levels of nurses’ workplace well-being. Furthermore, Job Demands explained 83.7% of the variance in Workplace Well-Being (r² = .837), indicating a substantial contribution of job demands to workplace well-being. These findings support the JD-R Theory, which posits that high job demands may deplete individuals’ psychological resources and reduce well-being when not adequately balanced by sufficient job resources. This study contributes empirical evidence to the literature on workplace well-being in the healthcare sector, particularly in the context of Indonesian nurses, and underscores the importance of effective workload management in enhancing well-being in hospital settings.

Abstract

This study is grounded in the importance of work engagement in enhancing employee performance, as well as the observed phenomenon of low engagement potentially influenced by job demands. The objective of this research is to examine the relationship between job demands and work engagement among employees. A quantitative approach with a correlational design was employed, involving 110 employees selected through a total sampling technique. Data were collected using Likert-scale questionnaires measuring job demands and work engagement, and subsequently analyzed using the Pearson Product-Moment correlation method. The findings indicate a significant negative relationship between job demands and work engagement, suggesting that higher job demands are associated with lower levels of employee engagement. Additionally, most employees demonstrated high levels of work engagement alongside relatively low to moderate job demands, indicating that existing work demands remain within manageable limits. The implications of this study highlight the importance of effectively managing job demands to foster higher levels of employee engagement. In conclusion, appropriate regulation of job demands plays a crucial role in maintaining and enhancing work engagement, which in turn contributes to improved productivity and overall organizational performance.
