Assessment of the Job Satisfaction Levels of Family Physicians

Abstract

Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine the level of job satisfaction and some related factors for family physicians in Turkey. 
Materials and Methods: The study was conducted with all the family physicians who participated in the trainings for family physicians in Ankara between March 2015 and March 2016. Face-to-face interviews and a questionnaire form with the physicians who took part in 15 organized trainings were fulfilled. In the study, questions were prepared by the researchers in accordance with the relevant literature review and the short form of the Minnesota Job Satisfaction Questionnaire containing 20 expressions were used. 
Results: When comparing average scores of general job satisfaction, internal job satisfaction, and external job satisfaction regarding the working regions of the family physicians, a statistically significant difference was found among the scores of interregional external job satisfaction. While the average score of general job satisfaction showed no statistically significant difference in terms of age, gender, marital status, child ownership and smoking status; a statistically significant difference was found between the mean scores of the general job satisfaction regarding the periods in which the physicians performed family medicine. While 622 (79.53%) of the family physicians who participated in the study had moderate job satisfaction, the proportion of family physicians having high job satisfaction was only 20.20%. 
Conclusion: In this study, family physicians' general job satisfaction scores were determined to be moderate. Factors responsible for this situation should be identified and developed. Factors could be either internal or external. The steps that would be taken to identify and develop these factors would increase both the efficiency of the family physicians and their level of satisfaction in primary health care services.
