Abstract
Introduction: Although the term job satisfaction is
often used, there is still no clear and widely accepted
definition. The interest in this aspect primarily originates
from the employer of the production sector, whose
interest and intention is to create working conditions
and an environment that will improve work productivity.
Job satisfaction among workers is a very important
parameter that affects both productivity and the quality
of work performed.
Aim: To determine job satisfaction among physiotherapists employed in state and private institutions
and the degree of job satisfaction with certain aspects
of the job.
Results: The results indicate that the respondents are
on average satisfied to very satisfied with their job
(M=3.71). Also, the results indicate that there is no statistically significant difference in job satisfaction with
regard to gender (p>0.05), in job satisfaction with regard
to professional education (p>0.05) and with regard to
work in state or private institutions (p>0 ,05). There is
a statistically significant difference in job satisfaction
regarding shift work (p<0.05).
Conclusion: The job satisfaction of healthcare workers
has a great influence on the quality and efficiency of
the work performed, and thus on the size of the costs
allocated to healthcare.
