It was among the basic needs of human beings throughout the history.Data were collected from70 males and 312 female teachersworking in both rural and urban schools in Tiruchirappalli revenue district using systematic random sampling techniques.

Work Social Support

Turnover Intention (intensitas perpindahan) adalah keinginan berpindah karyawan dari satu tempat kerja ketempat kerja lainnya. Hanya keinginan untuk pindah, belum sampai realisasi untuk melakukan perpindahan. Turnover merupakan kejadian yang wajar dalam setiap perusahaan. Namun jika penggantian karyawan ini karena faktor produktifitas, maka dapat diantisipasi oleh perusahaan melalui penyiapan kader-kader untuk menggantikan. Jika penggantian karyawan tidak berkaitan dengan implementasi program kerja yang telah ditetapkan, maka hal ini akan sangat menyulitkan perusahaan. Pada penelitian ini ingin mengetahui karakteristik karyawan setrta mengetahui variabel yang berpengaruh terhadap Turnover Intention melalui analisis korespondensi. Setelah diperoleh variabel berpengaruh selanjutnya digunakan untuk mencari model regresi logistik ordinal. Dari model regresi logistik selanjutnya digunakan untuk mencari besarnya probabilitas Turnover Intention karyawan. Dimana Turnover Intention dipengaruhi oleh Job satisfaction of work, Social support, sedangkan untuk Job satisfaction dipengaruhi oleh Quality of supervisior, dan compensation. Hasil pengolahan diketahui bahwa variabel yang berpengaruh adalah Job satisfaction katagori puas dan Social support katagori puas. Probabilitas Turnover Intention level tinggi dan level rendah hampir sama yaitu sebesar 0.119 dan 0,118. Sebagian besar probabilitas Turnover Intention berada pada level sedang yaitu sebesar 0,763. Kondisi tersebut perlu mendapat perhatian dari perusahaan agar karyawan yang berada pada probabilitas Turnover Intention level sedang dapat beralih menjadi level rendah dengan cara meningkatkan kepuasan kerja dan dukungan sosial pada diri karyawannya.

There may be so many negative consequences of stress for human beings and dissatisfaction among employees happens to be one of the major problems. It indicates negative feelings that individuals have regarding their jobs or its facets. On the other hand, social support is assumed to be mitigating the relationship between negative aspects of the work environment and job satisfaction. Job stress is said to be associated with job dissatisfaction as well as experience of strain. In view of the above, this study examined the role of job stress and social support in job satisfaction. The sample consisted of 30 school teachers from different school of Varanasi (U.P.). The job stress, job satisfaction and social support scales were administered on the participants. The responses of the participants were converted into scores for statistical analyses. The scores of participants on the scales were correlated. The findings revealed that job stress led to increased job satisfaction. It is against the proposed hypothesis and it appears as if the social support received by the participants is a factor behind it. Two of the four dimensions of social support were found to exert positive impact on job satisfaction but the other two dimensions were not found to be correlated with it. The findings are thoroughly discussed and interpreted.

Universal Measure

The word “Energy” is derived from the Greek word ‘energeia’, which means ‘in work’. It is the power or capacity to do work. Energy has become an important and one of the basic infrastructures for human development and economic growth of a country. Energy is the universal measure of all kinds of work and its consumption has been increasing worldwide. It has become a basic requirement of today’s life. In fact, it is the backbone of present day civilization. Thus, with an increase in the living standard of human beings, the energy consumption is also accelerated. There is a strong correlation between standard of living and energy consumption. Any physical activity in this world, whether carried out by human beings or by nature, is caused due to the flow of energy in one form or the other? Energy is required to do any kind of work. The work output depends on the energy input. The capacity to do work depends upon the amount of energy one can control and utilise.

Centered Care

ABSTRACTBackground:Person-centered care interventions can improve the quality of life and decrease behavioral problems of people with dementia. Although not convincingly proven, person-centered care interventions may benefit the caregivers as well. This study aims to gain insight into how working with the Veder Contact Method (VCM) – a new person-centered care method – influences the job satisfaction of caregivers.Methods:Within a quasi-experimental study, the job satisfaction of caregivers of six experimental wards (n = 75) was compared with caregivers of six control wards (n = 36) that applied Care-As-Usual. The Leiden Quality of Work Questionnaire (LQWQ) was filled in by caregivers in both conditions. Additionally, on the experimental wards, qualitative research, i.e. focus groups with 42 caregivers and interviews with 11 managers, was conducted to obtain a deeper understanding of the influence of applying VCM on caregivers’ job satisfaction. The transcripts were analyzed using deductive analysis.Results:No quantitatively significant differences were found on the subscales of the LQWQ: work and time pressure, job satisfaction, autonomous decision making, social support from colleagues, and social support from supervisors. From the qualitative research, some caregivers and managers reported that implementing VCM contributed to their job satisfaction and that applying VCM supported handling difficult behavior and depressed mood of residents and contributed to team building.Conclusions:No significant effects on job satisfaction were demonstrated. Qualitative findings indicate that VCM positively influences the daily work performances of nursing home caregivers. The relation between the experience of offering quality care and job satisfaction of caregivers needs further investigation.
