The Effect of Job Stress on Life Satisfaction in Healthcare Workers
Abstract
This study examines the effect of job stress on life satisfaction among healthcare workers. It also investigates how demographic characteristics (age, gender, and education level) influence job stress and life satisfaction levels. Designed as a descriptive and cross-sectional study, the research population includes all healthcare workers in Ankara. Due to time and cost constraints, the sample comprises 204 healthcare workers employed at Ankara Gölbaşı Şehit Ahmet Özsoy State Hospital. Results indicate that healthcare workers experience high levels of job stress, which negatively impacts their life satisfaction. Those exposed to higher job stress reported lower life satisfaction. Demographic factors significantly moderated the relationship between job stress and life satisfaction. The study concludes with recommendations for future research and aims to provide healthcare professionals with strategies to improve coping mechanisms for job stress and enhance life satisfaction.
