Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify factors affecting clinical nurses’ presenteeism.
Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional design was used in which participants completed self-report questionnaires that consisted of measures for nurses’ job satisfaction, job stress, professionalism and presenteeism. 267 nurses working in general hospital participated in this study. Logistic regression analysis was used to estimate predictors of the presenteeism in clinical nurses.
Results: 250 nurses experienced one or more health problems last one month. The group who experienced presenteeism during the last one year had significant differences in professionalism and perceived productivity. Predictors of sickness presenteeism in clinical nurses included work experience, total health problem and last 1 year absenteeism. Last 1 year absenteeism and total health problem were strongly related to presenteeism in clinical nurses.
Conclusion: Major findings of this study indicated that in dealing with nurses’ presenteeism, not only managing nurses’ job stress and job satisfaction but also providing flexible work schedule and increasing staffing level as an organizational approach are necessary to be considered. Further repeated and expanded research is needed to explore the multidimensional aspects of nurses’ presenteeism including a broad range of work setting and the influence of Korean nurses’ organizational culture on presenteeism.
