Aim: The study aims to gather under a single roof a meta-analysis of the relationship between job satisfaction and burnout in healthcare workers, carried out in OECD countries, and to obtain a general result.
Method: Unlike similar methodologies employed in assessing the correlation between job satisfaction and job performance in international literature, the study employed the meta-analysis technique in its methodology. For this aim, the literature was systematically reviewed, and 35 specific studies meeting the established criteria were included. The initial step involved uploading these studies into the Comprehensive Meta-Analysis V3 program and subsequently coding them for analysis. Before commencing the study analysis, the decision was made regarding the model for the effect size calculation, with preference given to the random effects model. Following this, the analysis encompassed effect size determination, examination of publication bias, and execution of subgroup analyses.
Results: Considering the prominent findings of the study, a negative and significant relationship was found between job satisfaction and burnout. The individual studies included in the study do not have publication bias. There exists a statistically significant difference among countries concerning the correlation between job satisfaction and burnout.
Conclusion: The structure and functioning of countries' health systems are unique and different. The effects of this situation are also reflected in the findings of the study. To increase the satisfaction of healthcare professionals, human resources strategies specific to the dynamics of each country should be determined and implemented, and the results should be monitored.

Sağlık Çalışanlarında İş Tatmini ve Tükenmişlik İlişkisi: Meta-Analizi

Öz

Amaç: Çalışma, sağlık çalışanlarında iş tatmini ile tükenmişlik arasındaki ilişkinin OECD ülkelerinde gerçekleştirilen meta-analizini tek çatı altında toplayarak genel bir sonuç elde etmeyi amaçlamaktadır.
Yöntem: Uluslararası literatürde yer alan, iş tatmini ile tükenmişlik arasındaki ilişkinin değerlendirilmesinde kullanılan metodolojilerden farklı olarak bu araştırmada meta-analiz tekniği kullanılmıştır. Bu amaçla literatür sistematik olarak taranarak belirlenen kriterleri karşılayan 35 spesifik çalışma araştırmaya dahil edilmiştir. İlk adım, bu çalışmaların kapsamlı Meta-Analiz V3 programına yüklenmesini ve ardından analiz için kodlanmasını içermektedir. Çalışma analizine başlamadan önce, etki büyüklüğü hesaplamasında kullanılacak modele karar verilmiş, ardından rastgele etkiler modeli tercih edilmiştir. Bunu takiben analiz, etki büyüklüğünün belirlenmesini, yayın yanlılığının incelenmesini ve alt grup analizlerinin yapılmasını kapsamaktadır.
Bulgular: İş tatmini ile tükenmişlik arasında negatif ve anlamlı bir ilişki bulunmuştur. Araştırmaya dahil edilen bireysel çalışmalarda yayın yanlılığı bulunmamaktadır. Araştırmanın bir diğer önemli sonucu ise iş tatmini ile tükenmişlik arasındaki ilişki açısından ülkeler arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir farklılık olmasıdır.
Sonuç: Ülkelerin sağlık sistemlerinin yapısı ve işleyişi kendine özgü ve farklıdır. Bu durumun etkileri çalışmanın bulgularına da yansımaktadır. Sağlık çalışanlarının memnuniyetini artırmak için her ülkenin dinamiklerine özel insan kaynakları stratejileri belirlenerek uygulanmalı ve sonuçları takip edilmelidir.
