Background
& Aim: Improving the quality of
work life in hospital personnel is introduced as one of the important factors
for ensuring the sustainability of the health system. The aim of this study was
to investigate the relationship among organizational justice and commitment,
and job satisfaction with quality of work life in Pour-Sina state hospital
personnel.
Materials
& Methods: The study design was
descriptive and cross-sectional, and statistical population included all of
physicians, nurses, radiology and administrative staff and service workers of
Poursina State Hospital in Rasht. 216 individuals were selected by quota
sampling and filled the questionnaires on demographic information, quality of
work life, organizational justice and commitment and job Descriptive Index(JDI).All
data were analyzed with SPSS 16 software and by correlation coefficient and
multiple regression.
Results: Among the demographic characteristics, only work
history had a significant negative correlation with quality of work life (r=-0.155,P<0.05).
All dimensions of organizational commitment(except continues commitment) and
organizational justice had a positive and significant relationship with quality
of work life(P<0.0001).in regression analysis variables of distributive
justice (P=0.0001,β=0.318),pay satisfaction (P=0001.0,β=0.288), affective
commitment (P=0.007,β=0.144), promotion satisfaction (P=0.003,β=0.172),
procedural justice (P=0.013,β=0.139 ), and normative commitment (P=0.003,
β=0.172) significantly predicted the levels of
quality of work life and totally explained 60% of shared variance(P<0.0001,F=46.913).
Conclusion: individuals working in hospital are always at risk
of burnout. Thus, it is proposed that much attention be paid to dimensions of
job satisfaction, organizational commitment and justice in order to increase
the quality of work life in hospital environments.
