Abstract

The number of male dental hygienists has been continuously increasing in dental services. The purpose of this study aimed to identify the relationship between job stress, job satisfaction, and turnover intention in male dental hygienists and to provide basic data to improve their job satisfaction. The study population was 110 Korean male dental hygienists working for dental clinics or hospitals. The data were collected from November 10 to December 7, 2015. After an explanation about the objective of the study, 110 questionnaires were distributed via email, and 97 responses were analyzed using SPSS. Overall averages of job stress, job satisfaction and turnover intention in male dental hygienists were 3.05, 2.92, and 3.47 out of 5, respectively. Some sub-factors of job stress, including interpersonal relationships at the workplace and future prospects of dental clinics, were proven to have statistically significant negative influence on job satisfaction (p<0.001). Regression analysis was performed with job stress and job satisfaction as independent variables and turnover intention as a dependent variable. Results showed that job stress had a positive effect on turnover intention (p<0.01) while job satisfaction had a negative effect on turnover intention (p<0.001). Job satisfaction was revealed to have statistically significant negative influence on turnover intention (p<0.001). Some of sub-factors of job stress, including work environment and future prospects of dental clinics and professional position, had a positive effect on turnover intention (p<0.05). The study showed that higher job stress led to higher turnover intention, and higher job satisfaction led to lower turnover intention. Accordingly, job stress and job satisfaction are critical factors for turnover intention in male dental hygienists.

이번 연구는 치과병(의)원급에 근무하는 남자 치과위생사의 직무 스트레스와 직무 만족이 이직의도를 결정하는 데 어떠한 영향을 끼치는지 파악하고자 남자 치과위생사 분포가 많은 서울, 경기, 인천, 부산, 경남 지역의 110명을 대상으로 연구목적을 설명한 후 2015년 11월 10일부터 12월 7일까지 이메일로 설문지를 배부하여 110부 중 97부를 회수하였다. 연구도구는 일반적 특성 8문항, 직무 스트레스 21문항, 직무 만족은 6문항, 그리고 이직의도 6문항 질문에 대하여 각각 5점 척도로 응답한 평균 점수로 측정하였다. 남자 치과위생사의 일반적 특성에 따른 직무 스트레스 평균은 5점 만점에서 3.05점, 직무 만족도의 평균은 2.92점, 이직의도의 평균은 3.47점으로 나타났다. 직무 스트레스 세부영역별로는 근무환경(평균 3.34), 전문가 입장(평균 3.14), 치과에서의 장래성(평균 2.94), 직장 내 대인관계(평균 2.57) 순으로 나타났다. 직무 스트레스 하위요인별 치과에서의 장래성, 직장 내 대인관계는 직무 만족에 통계적으로 유의미한 부(-)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다(p<0.05). 직무 스트레스와 직무 만족을 독립변수로, 이직의도를 종속변수로 하여 회귀분석 한 결과, 직무 스트레스는 이직의도에 통계적으로 유의미한 정(+)의 영향을 미치며(p<0.01), 직무 만족은 이직의도에 통계적으로 유의미한 부(-)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다(p<0.001). 직무 스트레스의 하위 요인별 근무환경, 치과에서의 장래성, 전문가 입장은 이직의도에 통계적으로 유의미한 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다(p<0.05). 남자 치과위생사의 이직의도를 줄이기 위해서는 직무 스트레스를 낮추고 직무 만족을 높이는 다방면의 관리가 필요하고, 남자 치과위생사의 근무환경, 치과에서의 장래성, 전문가 입장에 대한 스트레스 관리가 우선시되어야 하며, 직무 만족을 높이기 위해서는 치과에서의 장래성, 직장 내 대인관계에 대한 관리가 중요함을 시사한다. 이와 관련하여 남자 치과위생사와 여자 치과위생사간의 직무 스트레스, 직무 만족 이직의도에 대한 비교연구가 추가적으로 실시된다면 치과 의료기관 근무자의 성별에 따른 맞춤형 인력관리를 제시할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.
