An equity model of staff pharmacists' job satisfaction
Abstract:
Secondary analysis of data obtained during the 1982 Socioeconomic Survey of California pharmacists examined staff pharmacists' satisfaction with their job and with their employers' compensation practices. A systematic sample of licensed pharmacists residing in California was surveyed. Usable data from 208 staff pharmacists was analyzed. School of pharmacy, gender, practice setting and academic degree did not have a statistically significant effect upon pharmacists' overall job satisfaction when examined individually. When examined all together, only academic degree made a statistically significant difference in the level of job satisfaction. Pharmacists making less than the 25th wage percentile were less satisfied with their employers' compensation practices. For the entire sample of pharmacists, the factors having the greatest impact on general job satisfaction were: (1) satisfaction with compensation practices; (2) percent of time spent in patient care functions; and, (3) percent of time spent in purchasing and receiving. Academic degree did not contribute significantly to the prediction of job satisfaction.
