INTRODUCTION

Burnout syndrome is part of occupational health problem that can include both emotional and physical burnout (Maslach & Jsckosn, 1981; Tosun & Ulusoy, 2017; Halcomb, Smyth & McInnes, 2018). Study by Cetinkaya et al., (2017) claimed that the prevalence can be varied. Nursing is one of the human service professions and is specifically vital in the medical and mental health care delivery. Many scholars highlighted that nursing profession is by nature highly vulnerable to burnout syndromes (Khamisah et al., 2015; Polat & Terzi, 2018; Tavakoli et al., 2018). Main risk factors for the burnout were reported such as heavy workload and non- compliance among persons (Alameddine et al., 2017; Centikaya et al., 2017; Raju et al., 2021). Therefore, it is a common problem among health care professionals, especially those at the frontline of care such as nursing staff (Doulougeri, Georganta & Montgomery, 2016).

Meanwhile, job satisfaction is the extent to which a person like the job and have a positive or negative attitude toward their jobs (Doulougeri, Georganta & Montgomery, 2016; Polat & Terzi, 2018). Job abandonment and frequent job change can be seen as an indication of job burnout (Kabir et al., 2016; Ismail & Yee, 2020). In health care setting, improvement of quality of care and patient outcomes have been positively linked to the higher levels of job satisfaction among nurses (Doulougeri, Georganta & Montgomery, 2016; Centikaya et al., 2017; Tavakoli et al., 2018), thus it is crucial to maintain good level of job satisfaction among the nurses. Few studies reported that negative job burnout is linked with job satisfaction, where higher job burnout are experienced by the nurses, the lower the job satisfaction they had toward their job (Khamisa et al., 2015; Polat & Terzi, 2018; Tavakoli et al., 2018).

Burnout directly affects the health outcomes as characterized by exhaustion, fatigue, somatization and social withdrawal (Khamisa et al., 2015; Larasati & Aryanto, 2019) leading to nurses being dissatisfied with coping their job routines and negatively influence patient care. Thus, considering the grave impact on health care service particularly involving patient care and outcomes as well as staff attrition. It is imperative to explore a better understanding of the existing relationships between job satisfaction and burnouts to nurses.

A stressful profession, such as nursing, that deals with the numerous human demands of health and disease (Panhwar et al., 2019; Mahoney et al., 2020). Consequently, the stressful nature can ultimately lead to work dissatisfaction, burn-out (Kabir et al., 2016) and its effect on their quality of life (Aytekin, Yilmaz & Kuguogly, 2014). Nurses have been found among health care professionals to be most prone to burnout (Kapucu et al., 2009; Doulougeri, Georganta & Montgomery, 2016; Vidotti et al., 2018). Job satisfaction and burn-out are important issues as they affect turnover rates, retention of staff and ultimately the quality of patient care (Kapucu et al., 2009; Khamisa et al., 2015; Mahoney et al., 2020).

Relationship between job satisfaction and burnout advocated comprehensive plan to reduce burnout among the nurses (Khamisa et al., 2015; Panhwar et al., 2019) in order to increase job satisfaction and the quality of healthcare services. Nurses experiencing burnout issue may be harmful as an exhausted person has a tendency to develop health issues and psychological damage (Kapucu et al., 2009; Polat & Terzi, 2018; Larasati & Aryanto, 2019). Nurses who experienced dissatisfaction in the workplace may have disrupted physical, mental and social well-being (Kabir et al., 2016; Tavakoli et al., 2018; Mahoney et al., 2020).

In the current setting, a private hospital was selected. It was found that the increased in the susceptibility to job dissatisfaction and burnout among nurses are often associated to several job-related issues such as the work overload, unclear job descriptions, staff issues, shift overtime, poor salary package, unfair shift work allocation and lack of opportunities for promotion. Therefore, this study is essential to identify the job satisfaction and burnout among state registered nurses in the selected private hospital in Kajang, Malaysia.

METHODOLOGY

Study design, Setting and Sample: A cross sectional descriptive study design was used to determine the level of job satisfaction and burnout among registered nurses in the selected private hospital, Kajang, Malaysia, and if there are significant differences between the demographic variables and job satisfaction or burnout. The selected private hospital has 132 beds and 294 registered nurses. The data was collected from the registered nurses from various departments including critical areas and general wards. Sample size was determined by using Raosoft calculator software based on 5% margins error, 95% confidence level and 50% response distribution. The estimated sample size required was 167 after taking into consideration 10% attrition rate. The inclusion criteria for our study were the registered nurses who have been working in the selected private hospital for more than six months and willing to participate in the study. Conversely, the exclusion criteria applied for those in the managerial positions (female nurse managers, often referred to as Sister and male nurse managers who are referred to as Sir).

Ethical Consideration: Ethical approval from the IMU Joint-Committee on Research and Ethic, International Medical University was obtained to conduct the study. Permission for the data collection was obtained from the selected hospital management. Participants’ written consent were obtained prior to the study. This project has been approved at the 199th IMU Joint-Committee on Research and Ethics on 18th June 2020 (BN I/2020(PR-25).

Instrument: A self- administered questionnaires using 5 points Likert scale was used in this study. The questionnaire was adapted from Maslach & Jackson (1981). It consisted of three sections. Section A: sociodemographic data which include gender, age, education qualification in nursing, working experience as a nurse, job position at designated department and marital status. Section B: to measure the extent of burnout experience by the nurses. There was a total of 22 items in the instrument divided into three dimensions, namely emotional exhaustion (9 items), depersonalization (5 items) and personal accomplishment (8 items). Respondents’ feedback to each of the item were measured using a 5 points Likert-scale (1- strongly disagree to 5- strongly agree). Section C integrated the instrument to measure the level of job satisfaction among the nurses with 20 items. The respondents were required to express the extent of their satisfaction in their job using a 5 points Likert-scale (1- strongly dissatisfied to 5- strongly satisfied).

Validity and Reliability Testing: A panel of experts, comprising the Group Chief Nursing Officer (GCNO) and Chief Nursing Officer (CNO), reviewed the questionnaire and confirmed its content validity. The panel of experts unanimously acknowledged and agreed to the fact that the instrument was appropriate and applicable for the study. Thus, there was no modification required to the questionnaire. Cronbach’s alpha coefficients was used to identify the reliability of the questionnaire. The Cronbach’s alpha values for variables job satisfaction and burn out in the study are greater than 0.6 (>0.6), 0.919 and 0.890 respectively. This indicated that the items of questionnaire used in this study are reliable for their corresponding variables. If the value was close to 1, indicating that the items have a good criterion to be measured.

Pilot Study: After screening, 30 nurses who met the inclusion criteria and worked in the private hospital were selected to respond to the pilot study questionnaire. They were excluded from the main study.The approval and consent were obtained from Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Nursing Officer (CNO) of the private hospital prior to answering the questionnaire.

RESULTS

Demographic Data: The questionnaire was coded and entered using IBM SPSS statistics version 26. In order to provide the insight on the background of the respondents, demographic data of the respondents were revealed in the Table 1. From the demographic profile results, this study categorized profile of the respondents into six demographic items namely gender, age, education level, working experience, job position and marital status.

DISCUSSION

Sociodemographic Data: In our study, the registered nurses involved in this study were 13 male nurses and 154 female nurses with most of them were between 21 to 30 years of age. The total of 167 registered nurses at the selected private hospital involved in the study. Most of the respondents were diploma holder and having 5 to 10 years of working experience as a registered nurse. From the major findings, it showed that the level of job satisfaction and burnout among nurses were at high level of perception with mean value are 4.06 and 4.07 respectively. Our findings also revealed that only job satisfaction has the relationship to age, and burnout has the relationship to working experience.

Level of Job Satisfaction and Level of Burnout: Based on our findings, it revealed that registered nurses at the selected private hospital in Kajang have a high level of job satisfaction (mean = 4.06 and SD = 0.911). In contrary, the level of burnout among registered nurses are also at high level (mean = 4.07 and SD = 0.801).


Relationship of Job Satisfaction and Burnout Among Registered Nurses According to Demographic Items: The finding revealed that only the job satisfaction has statistically significant relationship with age. The finding showed that the different in age will affected in the job satisfaction among registered nurses at the private hospital in Kajang. While the other demographic items such as gender, education level, working experience, job position and marital status are not related or affected on the job satisfaction among the registered nurses. In addition, the findings also reported that the burnout has statistically significant relationship on working experience. Our findings proved that the different in working experience will affect the burnout level among registered nurses at the selected private hospital. Burnout among the registered nurses at the private hospital in Kajang is not affected by the other demographic factors such as gender, age, education level, job position and marital status. It has been found that job satisfaction and burnout are important factors (Khamisa et al., 2015; Polat & Terzi, 2018; Panhwar et al., 2019) to retain the staff. Therefore, in the context of nursing service, managers and leaders of any hospital should be more committed to improving employee satisfaction (Khamisa et al., 2015; Panhwar et al., 2019).


According to Owen et al., (2018), management of the private hospital can ensure the job satisfaction of employees by providing the nursing staff with an opportunity to participate in the policy development process. The internal governance can be developed based on the needs and concerns of staff with the help of this process.


Study has suggested that workplace burnout has a negative correlation with job satisfaction. As mentioned by Vidotti et al., (2018), the satisfaction of employees can be increased by reducing the burnout within the workplace. In order to prevent burnout, the managers need to be vigilant about risk factors. Burnout within the workplace is created by risk factors such as dysfunction of workplace dynamics, work-life misbalance, extreme pressure and lack of social support (Owen et al., 2018). It is the sheer responsibility of the managers to ensure that these risk factors are not affecting the nursing staff. In order to do that, managers can conduct a monthly or quarterly survey to understand the issues and concerns of nursing staff.


Implications for Nursing Practice and Research


Our findings provided a clear implication for nursing practices and research. As articulated by Tosun & Ulusoy (2017), nurses are essential for educating emerging students who are interested in this field. It helps to detect, refer, intervene and create strategies for the people who are focused on creating cognitive impairment. It is essential for the nurses to suggest to the patients and their family members to lead a better life. As stated by Mahoney et al., (2020), nurse managers are considered as the key to create and harness a positive workplace environment. Development of a positive workplace environment is essential for meeting the needs of the staff and retains an organization (Kabir et al., 2016; Larasati & Aryanto, 2019). Therefore, it is important for the nurse managers of the private hospital to look into the needs and expectations of the nurses. The study has illustrated that there is a significant relationship between the demographic variables such as pay scale, work environment and others. Hence, it is the responsibility of the managers and leaders of the selected private hospitals to meet the needs and expectations of nurses.


CONCLUSION

As a conclusion, it can be derived that the top management must address to the needs and expectations of their nurses and focus on aspects for improving the burnout level and further enhance the job satisfaction. It is essential for retaining the nursing staff and enhancing their performance. Based on the performance of the nurses, the quality of service delivery in the hospitals can be improved.

Limitation

The study only covers job satisfaction and burnout among registered nurses at the selected private hospital. Thus, the finding of this study cannot be generalised to other hospital.

Conflict of Interest

The authors declare that they have not known competing financial or personal conflict of interest.
