Purpose: This study aimed to elucidate the situational context and describe the factors and attributes pertaining to occupational stress among hospital nurses in Korea.
Methods: Secondary data from focus group interviews conducted with 26 hospital nurses were analyzed using the content analysis method. Data were analyzed using Graneheim and Lundman’s content analysis method.
Results: Based on the job demand-resource theory, the contents were divided into two major themes: the “excessive job demands” and the “shortage of job resources”. The first theme was summarized into the following four categories: excessive workload and work intensity, complex and difficult work demands, hazardous work environment, and role- and relationship-related conflicts. The second theme was summarized into the following five categories: inadequate staffing, insufficient education and training, lack of support system, poor monetary compensation, and low internal compensation.
Conclusion: The occupational stress factors of Korean hospital nurses can be summarized as excessive job demands, and they lack job resources.
