Aim:
This study aimed to assess inclusive leadership and presenteeism among clinical nurses and to examine the moderating effect of perceived organizational support on presenteeism related to the inclusive leadership among nurses.
Background:
Nurses' presenteeism has become common. In hospitals, inclusive leadership is an acknowledged leadership style that has a positive influence on nurses. However, little emphasis has been paid to research on their relationships and moderating effect.
Methods:
A cross-sectional study was undertaken to assess 2222 nurses using a general information questionnaire, Stanford Presenteeism Scale (SPS-6), Perceived Organisational Support Scale, and Inclusive Leadership Scale. Study variables were analyzed using descriptive statistics, correlation, and structural equation modelling (SEM).
Results:
Presenteeism was relatively severe among clinical nurses. There were correlations between inclusive leadership, perceived organizational support and presenteeism. Perceived organizational support moderated the relationship between inclusive leadership and presenteeism.
Discussion And Conclusion:
Nursing managers should actively adopt an inclusive leadership style and improve nurses' sense of perceived organizational support to improve clinical nurses' presenteeism behaviors.
Implications For Nursing Policy And Practice:
Healthcare organizations and nursing managers should pay attention to the psychological needs of their nurses, provide complete understanding and support, encourage staff to actively participate in their work and contribute new ideas and opinions, reduce the incidence of presenteeism, and improve nurses' sense of well-being at work.
