Background: This study aimed to model the relationship between occupational accidents, work-family conflict, and quality of work-life in emergency room nurses. Materials and Methods: This correlational research uses path analysis. The study population consisted of all nurses working in the emergency rooms of hospitals in Tehran City, Iran, in 2020. Of them, 200 samples were selected by the available sampling method. To obtain the data, we used the occupational accidents questionnaire, the quality of work-life questionnaire, and the work-family conflict scale. SPSS v. 24 and Amos v. 24 software were used for data analysis. Results: The analysis of the findings showed that occupational accidents and work-family conflict have a negative and direct effect on the quality of work-life (P<0.01). Occupational accidents also have a positive and direct effect on work-family conflict (P<0.01). On the other hand, the mediating role of work-family conflict between occupational accidents and quality of work-life was confirmed (P<0.01). Conclusion: The relationship model of occupational accidents with quality of work-life mediated by work-family conflict has a good fit, and there is a relationship between family, job, and environmental stressors with the quality of work-life.

This study examines the relationship between work-family conflict and the quality of work life among nurses in the city of Medan.

Este ensaio tem como objetivo contribuir para o debate sobre a possibilidade de concretização do conceito de qualidade de vida no trabalho (QVT) diante do processo de intensificação laboral que se verifica na contemporaneidade. Por meio de consulta a resultados de pesquisas que tratam dos efeitos do processo de intensificação laboral sobre os trabalhadores, este artigo revela que, embora as empresas busquem promover QVT por meio de políticas e práticas que visam melhorar a satisfação do trabalhador, os mecanismos de intensificação do trabalho que são adotados com vistas a aumentar a produtividade geram resultados na direção oposta àqueles desejados pelas políticas de QVT. Desta forma, conclui-se que se torna inviável garantir a qualidade vida no trabalho genuína diante do processo de intensificação laboraABSTRACTThis essay aims to contribute to the debate about the possibility of achieving the concept of quality of work life (QWL) in face of the labor intensification process that is taking place in contemporary times. Through literature review of researches that deal with the effects of labor intensification on workers, this article reveals that, although companies seek to promote QWL through policies and practices aimed to improve worker satisfaction, the mechanisms of work intensification adopted to increase productivity generate results in the opposite direction to those desired by QWL policies. Thus, it is concluded that becomes unfeasible to guarantee genuine quality of work life in face of the labor intensification process. Keywords: Work Intensification, Quality of Work Life, Work-family Conflict.

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to assess the relationship between incivility and two organizational and personal attitudes, namely, perceived ethical climate and perceived quality of work-life of nurses, in the framework of organizational climate.Design/methodology/approachQuantitative data of 148 nurses working in a medium-sized hospital in Israel were collected. Furthermore, qualitative data were collected through semi-structured interviews with 12 nurses and 14 doctors from the same hospital, constructing a mixed-method approach.FindingsFindings revealed that witnessing or experiencing incivility affected the nurses' perception of the ethical climate of their work unit and their perceived quality of their work-life. Additionally, we found that the relationship between incivility and nurses' perceived quality of work-life was partially mediated through their perceived ethical climate. The qualitative data supported some of the findings.Originality/valueThe article stretches the incivility theory beyond its dyadic boundaries, prominently showing the spillover effect of incivility as an organizational problem. Additionally, it offers some evidence-based support for the multidimensionality of incivility, strengthening the need for a construct cleanup.
