“…In comparison to the ndings of these international studies, our study shows that job and career satisfaction in MRITs at NGHA hospitals is highest (3.59), followed by the study on nurses in Taiwan (3.75) 23 , followed by the study on nurses in Uganda (3.53) 24 . In relation to CAW, three studies scored (3.39), and the current study came second, scoring (3.15/5).…”

Quality of Work Life (QWL) is a multi-dimensional discipline concerned with the quality of life at the workplace. Objectives: This work aimed to assess the level of QWL of Magnetic Resonance Imaging Technologists (MRITs) at National Guard Health Affairs Hospitals (NGHA) in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and identify the correlation between QWL dimensions and Job and Career Satisfaction (JCS). Methodology: This study used the 32-item WRQoL-2 tool, a questionnaire consisting of 6 subscales; Job and Career Satisfaction (JCS), Control at Work (CAW), Home-Work Interface (HWI), General Well-Being (GWB), Stress at Work (SAW) and Work Conditions (WCS). Results: The study respondents were 57 MRITs working in NGHA hospitals across KSA with a 100% response rate. We found a high level of QWL among MRITs (66.2%, 3.31/5). The level of JCS was high (71.6%, 3.59/5) with a significant correlation between JCS and WCS, CAW, HWI, and GWB. There was an inverse relationship between SAW and JCS. Conclusion: Further research in the field of QWL is needed to diagnose shortcomings affecting the quality of healthcare services in KSA.

“…WRQoL is a scale that was developed initially to collect data related to QWL in medical environments 20 . The scale consisted of 24 items distributed to 6 subscales, then was raised to 32 items in 2018 to provide better psychometric properties 3 (2,12,23,30) to CAW, items no. (5,6,14,25) to HWI, items no.…”

“…The WRQoL scale was a sufficiently valid and reliable instrument for QoWL (Cronbach's α = .91) (Van Laar et al, 2007). The Chinese version of the WRQoL scale was used (Cronbach's α = .88; test-retest (r) = .89) (Dai, Tang, Chen, & Yu, 2016), with an α coefficient of .94 in this study.…”

Aim To explore the relationship between job burnout and quality of working life, and identify influencing factors of nurses' quality of working life. Background Understanding the influencing factors of quality of working life is important to improve nursing retention strategies. Job burnout can negatively influence work efficiency and quality of work. However, studies examining the association between the two remain limited. Methods The cross‐sectional survey of 2,504 nurses was performed in Eastern China. Nurses were invited to complete self‐report questionnaires online. The collected data were analysed using Pearson's correlation and multiple regression. Results About 64.0% of nurses experienced job burnout, and their quality of working life was at a moderate level. Job burnout, hospital level, age, income, night shift and patient‐to‐nurse ratio were significant factors of quality of working life. Conclusion Job burnout has a negative effect on nurses' quality of working life. Some demographic and work‐related factors should be considered when developing interventions to improve nurses' quality of working life. Implications for Nursing Management Hospital and nurses managers should develop strategies to reduce nurses' job burnout and enhance their quality of working life, such as optimum nurse staffing, offer reasonable pecuniary compensation and establish an appropriate shift work schedule.

“…Moreover, increases in aging populations around the world as well as in Indonesia along with various acute healthcare challenges, illness severities, and incidences of chronic illnesses have increased nurses' workload of providing health services and rates of burnout (Zhou et.al., 2018). Additionally, poor working environments encountered by nurses are also considered a notable issue in the worsening nursing shortage worldwide (Dai et al, 2016;Lin, Lu, & Huang, 2016). The growing demand for health care and the shrinking supply of trained personnel are leading causes of shortages of nurses in global health care (Littlejohn et al, 2012).…”

Background: Nursing shortages are a significant problem experienced by medical institutions worldwide as well as Indonesia. Understanding nurses’ work environment is a proper strategy for enhancing the retention and overcoming shortages of nurses. The Quality Nursing Work Environment (QNWE) is a well-known tool that has been commonly used to evaluate the working atmosphere of nurses. However, the availability and validated version of the instrument for hospital nurses in Indonesia is not confirmed.Purpose: This study aims to confirm the psychometric evaluation of the Indonesian version of QNWE instruments in hospital settings.Methods: A cross-sectional study design and psychometric analyses were administered. The 65-item, eight-domain questionnaire was translated, adapted, and face-validated using content validity index (CVI) analysis. The construct validity and internal consistency of the translated version were tested using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and Cronbach's Alpha to 334 hospital nurses. The intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was employed to determine test-retest and interrater reliability analysis to 33 nurses and 10 ratters in the pilot testing.Results: The CVI of the QNWE-I scale ranged from 0.86 to 1.00. The CFA determined an adequate model fit of the instrument. As to overall reliability, test-retest reliability of 0.90, ICC analysis of 0.82, and Cronbach's alpha of 0.96; was confirmed.Conclusions: The psychometric evaluation of the QNWE-I showed excellent acceptability, validity, and reliability. Therefore, the QNWE-I can serve as a comprehensive instrument for assessing the quality of nurses' work environments in Indonesia.
