INFLUENCE OF WORKING ENVIRONMENT ON THE QUALITY OF LIFE OF NURSES

Summary/Abstract: The quality of working life is assessed on the basis of safety and protection at work, respect for equal opportunities for development and advancement, freedom of critical thinking, and creativity. There is a close relationship between the work environment, organizational culture, organizational behavior, leadership styles, work efficiency, and employee productivity. All these factors affect the quality of life of workers. The objectives of the research are based on examining the work engagement of nurses-technicians; the impact of the working environment on the quality of life of nurses-technicians; determining the correlation between sociodemographic, psychographic factors, and factors that affect the health of nurses, as well as examining satisfaction with the workplace and working environment through the application of motivational techniques. The research is descriptive. The total number of subjects included in the study was 234, of which 169 or 72% were from the Clinical Center of the University of Sarajevo (KCUS), and 65 or 28% from the "Herz-Jesu" Dernbach Hospital (HJDK). An anonymous survey questionnaire and internal regulations of the health institutions where the research was conducted were used for the research, and they refer to the employment of nursing staff and turnover. The results of the research indicate that a small number of KCUS employees believe that they are not sufficiently evaluated for their work, so they are generally more dissatisfied with their workplace. On the other hand, dissatisfaction at HJKD is mostly caused by stress.
