Abstract

Objective : The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of rehabilitation therapists' general characteristics and job involvement on stress. The subjects of this study were occupational therapists and physical therapists working for long-term hospitals and general hospitals located in K and B cities, South Korea. Methods : The study investigated general characteristics, job stress, and job involvement by using questionnaires. Analysis conducted on total 144 questionnaires excluding 19 questionnaires, which did not satisfy the subject selection criteria. Results : The results show that job involvement had significantly positive correlations with job requirement, job autonomy, relationship conflicts, organization system, inappropriate compensation, job instability, and workplace culture. Secondly, marital status, wage level, and job engagement explained 46.6% of variations in job stress. Conclusion : The study was meaningful in examining the variables influencing the job stress of rehabilitation therapists. We expect that it can be used for improving the job environment of rehabilitation therapists.

목적 : 보건 의료기관이 갖는 의료서비스와 행정의 양면적 명령구조로 인한 갈등과 의사, 간호사, 의료기사, 행정직 등 다양한 직종들이 모여 있는 조직으로 일반 기업보다 많은 직무 스트레스를 받을 수 있는 가능성이 있다. 이에 본 연구는 병원에 근무하는 재활 분야 치료사의 일반적 특성과 직무몰입이 직무스트레스에 미치는 영향을 확인하고자 하였다. 연구방법 : 본 연구의 대상자는 국내의 K시, B시에 소재하고 있는 요양병원, 종합병원에 근무하고 있는 작업치료사, 물리치료사를 대상으로 하였다. 일반적 특성, 직무 스트레스, 직무 몰입이 포함된 설문지를 통해 조사하였고, 응답내용이 불성실하거나 누락된 설문지 19부를 제외한 144부를 대상으로 분석하였다. 결과 : 첫째, 치료사의 특성과 직무 몰입, 직무 스트레스 변인들의 상관관계를 분석한 결과 직무요구, 직무자율, 관계갈등, 조직체계, 보상 부적절, 직무 불안성, 직장 문화로 직무몰입 정도와 상관관계를 나타났다. 둘째, 재활 분야 치료사의 일반적 특성과 직무몰입이 직무스트레스에 영향을 미치는 변인으로는 결혼유무, 임금수준, 직무몰입이 46.6%의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 결론 : 재활분야 치료사의 직무스트레스에 영향을 주는 변인을 알아본 것에 의의를 가지고, 관련 분야의 직무환경을 개선하여 클라이언트에 대한 중재의 질을 향상시킬 정책 결정에 기초 자료로 활용될 수 있기를 기대한다.
