Abstract
|
|
|
Purpose: This study aimed to provide baseline data for optometrists’ welfare and improvement of working environment by grasping the effects of their job stress on professional job satisfaction and turnover intention.
Methods: This study targeted 256 optometrists working at optician’s shops in Daegu and Gyeongbuk and examined the correlations between job stress, professional job satisfaction, and turnover intention. A multiple regression analysis was carried out to identify the effects of job stress on professional job satisfaction and turnover intention.
Results: Job stress showed a slightly high negative correlation with professional job satisfaction (p<0.01), and a low positive correlation with turnover intention (p<0.01). The job stress factors affecting professional job satisfaction were organizational system (= ?0.159, p<0.05) and the lack of reward (= ?0.562, p<0.001). The factor affecting turnover intention was the lack of reward (=0.431, p<0.001).
Conclusions: To enhance optometrist's professional job satisfaction and lower turnover intention, a legitimate reward system according to job performing capabilities and the organizational system improvement are required. Through a further study using various parameters, job stress improvement is judged to be necessary.
