Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:Objective: To understand the current situation of medical staff’s sense of security, work engagement, and turnover intention in Guangdong Province and to analyze their influencing factors to explore the relationship between sense of security, work engagement and turnover intention. The thesis also aims to improve medical staff’s sense of security, reduce willingness to leave, ensure the sustainable development of medical staff’s health, and provide an essential basis for health administration departments to formulate health management policies. Methods: This study adopted the proportional stratified sampling method to select medical staff in Guangdong Province as the research object. The general information questionnaire, medical staff sense of security scale, work engagement scale and turnover intention scale were selected for investigation. Data analysis was carried out using SPSS 24.0 and AMOS 23.0. The influencing factors were analyzed by one-way analysis of variance and multiple linear regression. Using structural equation modelling, we explored the mediating effect of job engagement on the relationship between security and turnover intention. Results: The survey results show that the turnover intention of medical staff was at the upper-middle level, and 62.4% are highly willing to leave. Sense of security has a negative effect on turnover intention, which can also be influenced by work engagement. Conclusion: The study concludes that work engagement mediates between the sense of security and turnover intention and significantly negatively impacts turnover intention. Therefore, hospital administrators should realize the importance of work engagement and take measures to reduce turnover intention.
