Abstract

Job satisfaction represents the degree to which employees feel comfortable with their work environment, which is manifested in the performance and production of their activities. The objective of this study is to analyze the factors that affect the job satisfaction of nurses working in a hospital in Guayaquil, in order to provide strategies to help improve their job performance. A total of 106 people participated, 74 women and 32 men, their ages ranged from 22 to more than 45 years old, most of them with third level studies. Applied and cross-sectional research was used. The results showed that among the extrinsic factors influencing job satisfaction were personal development (27.36%) and relations with superiors (26.42%). It was concluded that it is necessary to review the distribution of patient care, which will allow better iteration among the staff and facilitate preparation to achieve the professional and personal development they demand. It is proposed to promote training programs, teamwork, motivation and recognition, which will lead to improved job satisfaction among the hospital's collaborators.
