Abstract

Background: The productivity of nurses and patient healthcare is highly influenced by nurses’ stress-related factors and job satisfaction. Nursing is the least preferred career opportunities for Saudi residents as compared to other options. Nurses’ perceptions of intention to quit contributes to their shortage in Saudi health care institutions.Purpose: The study aimed to examine the relationship between work-related stress and job satisfaction among Saudi nurses working at a public hospital.Methods: The research used a cross-sectional design that collected data from samples of 297 nurses working at a specified public hospital and aged over than 20 years old. Convenient sampling was employed to recruit the samples. Data were collected using the Expanded Nursing Stress Scale (ENSS) and Job Satisfaction Scale (JSS). The Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 20.0 was applied, and Pearson’s correlation test was to identify the relationship between variables.Results: The results indicated that the nurses at the hospital where the study took place experienced low levels of stress with a mean value of 2.1995. Besides, the nature of work indicated maximum job satisfaction with a mean value of 15.666, whereas minimum job satisfaction levels (11.569), were related to benefits provided to nurses. A positive correlation was found between the level of stress and satisfaction with a p-value of 0.041.Conclusion: The stress factors were highly correlated with job satisfaction. The identification of stress factors is important as it may create a negative impact on patients’ care and their well-being. It is suggested that changes in managerial affairs and policies are essential for implementing beneficial strategies that may assist in resolving the issue.

Abstract

Introduction: Nurses play an integral role in the healthcare system, representing the most essential and prominent component of the healthcare sector. To build a resilient organizational plan, it is necessary to engage employees in decision-making and offer them greater autonomy.  This is usually accomplished through empowering employees, with the behavior of leaders playing an integral role, especially in empowering leadership. Thus, this study aimed to examine the relationship between structural empowerment among nurses, years of managerial experience, and resistance to change. Method: This cross-sectional, descriptive correlational survey included 148 participants employed in formal or acting leadership roles such as nursing managers, head nurses, or nursing supervisors in a Riyadh university hospital, selected using convenience sampling. Data were collected using the CWEQ-II and RTC scales. Descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation, ANOVA, and multiple regression were used to analyze the data. Results: The results indicated that structural empowerment among nurses is significantly and negatively associated with resistance to change, indicating that an increase in structural empowerment leads to a decrease in resistance to change.  However, years of managerial experience showed no significant association with resistance to change, demonstrating that having more or fewer years of managerial experience did not meaningfully impact resistance levels. Conclusion: This study concluded that with more employment empowerment, exposure, and accessibility to information, resistance to change can be reduced.
