Area of Science:

  • Nursing
  • Occupational Health
  • Healthcare Management

Background:

  • Emergency departments are high-risk environments for workplace violence against healthcare workers.
  • Violence against healthcare professionals is more prevalent in emergency services compared to other hospital units.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the relationship between workplace violence experienced by emergency nurses, their occupational commitment, and intention to resign.
  • To explore the impact of violence on nurses' commitment and turnover intentions.

Main Methods:

  • A multi-method study involving 202 emergency nurses.
  • Quantitative data collected using the Perceptions of the Prevalence of Aggression Scale (POPAS) and the Three-Component Model of Commitment Scale.
  • Qualitative interviews explored the causes, effects, and contributing factors to violence, commitment, and resignation.

Main Results:

  • 96.5% of emergency nurses reported experiencing verbal violence.
  • Validated Turkish version of POPAS demonstrated acceptable reliability and fit.
  • Qualitative findings indicated that workplace violence negatively impacts nurses physically, psychologically, and socially, leading to job dissatisfaction and thoughts of resignation.

Conclusions:

  • Increased exposure to violence, especially verbal, significantly reduces nurses' emotional occupational commitment.
  • Enhancing nurses' working conditions and reducing workload are essential to bolster occupational commitment and mitigate turnover intentions.
