Area of Science:

Nursing Research
Healthcare Management
Socioeconomic Studies

Background:

Decent work is a crucial but complex concept in the nursing profession.
Understanding its attributes is vital for improving nurse well-being and retention.
Existing literature lacks a clear, operational definition for decent work in nursing.

Purpose of the Study:

To clarify the concept of decent work within the nursing profession.
To establish an operational definition for decent work in nursing.
To propose a future research agenda for decent work in nursing.

Main Methods:

Utilized Walker and Avant's established concept analysis methodology.
Conducted a comprehensive literature search across major databases (Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, CINAHL, APA PsycINFO).
Analyzed 19 relevant English-language articles published between 1999 and 2024 using keywords such as "decent work" and "nursing."

Main Results:

Identified six defining attributes of decent work in nursing, categorized into foundational (social protection, human rights, professional appreciation) and functional (social dialogue, compensation satisfaction, career development) levels.
Categorized antecedents into organizational and personal factors.
Classified consequences into nurse-related, organizational, moral, and attachment outcomes, leading to an operational definition integrating professional justice and human dignity.

Conclusions:

The operational definition of decent work in nursing provides an integrated framework of professional justice and human dignity.
Future research should explore decent work across diverse nursing roles and settings.
Developing specialized assessment tools and employing varied methodologies are recommended for future studies on decent work in nursing.
