Les divers projets de réforme du système de santé au Canada depuis les années 1990 ont profondément modifié les milieux de travail et les attitudes des travailleurs dans le domaine de la santé. Dans cet article, nous examinons les liens entre, d'une part, la détérioration de l'environnement de travail externe, la lourdeur des charges de travail et la satisfaction du personnel infirmier à l'égard du travail, et, d'autre part, les intentions des travailleurs face à un changement possible d'emploi. Les données étudiées proviennent d'une enquête réalisée en 2002 et à laquelle ont répondu 1 396 infirmières et infirmiers de trois hôpitaux d'enseignement du sud de l'Ontario. Nous avons d'abord analysé les données globalement ; ensuite, nous avons étudié de façon séparée celles qui concernent le personnel à plein temps, à temps partiel et occasionnel.

“…The external work environment measure is developed based on our qualitative studies of restructured nursing work environments in hospitals (Baumann et al 2003;Blythe et al 2005) and in home care (Denton, Zeytinoglu and Davies 2003). The workload scale is from and .…”

“…But, a larger proportion of CAS nurses continued to move to PT rather than FT indicating that some nurses do not prefer FT work. Blythe et al [17] have argued that effective nurse retention strategies should take into account nurses' work preferences. Our findings are consistent with this argument.…”

“…Zeytinoglu et al (2006) recommended the review of staffing models in order for health care facilities to better retain workers, especially in view of the high ratio of part-time nurses compared to full-time nurses. Blythe et al (2005) concluded that many part-time nurses would prefer to work full-time and that not addressing this could lead to losing more nurses. Zeytinoglu et al (2006) found that stress and being unable to work in a preferred job were major factors influencing nurses' decisions to leave, but that hospital nurses with co-worker support were more likely to stay.…”

This article enhances our understanding of nurses' work as they see it, in an exploration of the links between changing work, the labour relations climate, workload, stress, retention and recruitment. Conventionally separate bodies of literature on occupational health and safety, public sector industrial relations and human resource management informed the design and implementation of the study. Interviews with nurses revealed a high level of commitment but also indicated clear links between the labour relations climate, work intensification leading to high stress and poor work-life balance, retention and recruitment. The study concludes that working conditions must be improved to gain a healthy workplace and because wage increases on their own are not enough to make nursing more attractive.
