The survey was conducted by self-administered questionnaires during the period between March 1st and April 30, 2016. As a result, the score of job satisfaction according to the sociodemographic and health related characteristics were significantly lower in the younger-aged group, unmarried group, no-regular exercise group, and poor group of subjective sleep evaluation, unhealthy group of subjective health status than their respective counterparts. From the perspective of job-related characteristics, the job satisfaction scores were significantly lower in the groups of lower rank, lower job career, lower monthly income, hard group of physical burden of work, dissatisfaction group of sense of satisfaction in work, unfit group of the job, without group of consider quitting the job than their respective counterparts. The score of job satisfaction, in accordance with violence experience, job stress, and burn-out were significantly lower in groups with higher scores of violence experience, job stress, and burn-out. In a logistic regression analysis, the adjusted odds ratio of the low-risk job satisfaction were significantly increased in the very high group than in the low group of violence experience, in middle, high and very high group than in low group of job stress, in very high group than in low group of burn-out.

본 연구는 119구급대원의 인구사회학적특성, 건강관련행위특성, 직업관련 특성, 폭력경험, 소진 및 직무스트레스에 따른 직무만족도 수준을 알아보고, 폭력경험, 소진 및 직무스트레스와 직무만족도와의 관련성을 규명하고자 시도하였다. 조사대상은 전국 14개 소방서에 근무하고 있는 119구급대원 1,240명으로 하였으며, 조사는 2016년 3월 1일부터 4월 30일까지의 기간 동안에 구조화된 무기명 자기기입식 설문조사에 의하였다. 연구결과, 조사대상자의 인구사회학적 및 건강관련행위특성에 따른 직무만족도는 연령이 낮을수록, 기혼군보다 미혼군에서, 규칙적인 운동을 한다는 군보다 하지 않는다는 군에서, 여가시간이 있다는 군보다 없다는 군에서, 주관적인 수면의 질이 좋다는 군보다 좋지 않다는 군에서, 주관적인 건강상태가 좋다는 군보다 좋지 않다는 군에서 유의하게 낮았다. 직업관련특성에 따른 직무만족도는 직위가 낮을수록, 근무경력이 짧을수록, 월수입이 낮을수록, 업무의 신체적 부담정도가 적당하다는 군보다 힘들다는 군에서, 업무에 만족한다는 군보다 만족하지 못한다는 군에서, 업무에 대한 적성이 맞는다는 군보다 맞지 않는다는 군에서, 직업전환의사가 없다는 군보다 있다는 군에서 유의하게 낮았다. 또한, 조사대상자의 직무만족도 점수는 폭력경험, 직무스트레스 및 소진이 높은 군일수록 유의하게 낮았으며, 직무만족도가 낮은 군에 속할 위험비는 폭력경험, 직무스트레스 및 소진이 낮은 군에 비해 높은 군으로 갈수록 유의하게 증가하였다. 위와 같은 연구결과는 119구급대원의 직무만족도는 인구사회학적 및 건강관련행위 특성이나 직업관련 특성뿐만 아니라 직무스트레스, 폭력경험 및 소진과도 유의한 관련성이 있음을 시사하고 있다.
