Results: The results were concluded as follows. Job efficacy has shown significant differences depending on age, working experience and main tasks (p<0.05). Organizational commitment differed significantly depending on age, number of patients, health condition and employee welfare (p<0.05). There were meaningful differences in job satisfaction depending on work experience, number of units, number of employees, number of patients, health status and employee welfare (p<0.05). There was a meaningful correlation between tissue ingress and positive (r=0.216) and organizational commitment(r=0.601) and meaningful correlation between organizational commitment with Job-efficacy (r=0.346). The higher the work experience (β=0.219), the lower the unit count (β=-0.202) and the higher the number of employees (β=0.252). The lower the work experience (β=-0.083) and the lower the unit count (β=-0.130), the better the number of employees (β=0.181), the better the health status (β=0.078), the higher the monthly wage (β=0.349), the better the employee welfare (β=0.30). The lower the number of units (β=-0.177), the higher the number of employees (β=0.340), the better the health condition (β=0.128), the higher the monthly wage (β=0.275), and the better the employee welfare (β=0.250).
