Abstract

This research analyzed the influence of distributive justice on the job satisfaction and the mediating effect of the empowerment of social workers in rehabilitation facilities for disabled persons. A survey of 241 social workers being engaged in the facilities of A Metropolitan City and B Province was conducted. The analysis result of this research is as follows : the social workers' distributive justice influenced the job satisfaction positively and the empowerment mediated between the distributive justice and the job satisfaction. According to these results, some solutions can be presented to promote their job satisfaction. It is necessary to improve the social workers' perception of distributive justice and their empowerment through various methods. I think that this study will contribute to the improvement of the level of services in the facilities and desirable community life and self-reliant life of the disabled.

본 연구는 장애인복지관에서 종사하는 사회복지사의 분배공정성이 직무만족에 미치는 영향과 임파워먼트의 매개효과를 검증하였다. A광역시와 B도에 소재한 장애인복지관 14개소의 사회복지사 241명에게 설문조사를 실시하였다. 분석결과, 장애인복지관 사회복지사의 분배공정성과 직무만족의 관계, 그리고 임파워먼트의 매개효과가 유의미한 것으로 확인되었다. 분석결과를 기초로 하여 장애인복지관 서비스 제공의 핵심적인 인력인 사회복지사의 직무만족을 증진시키기 위한 몇 가지 방안을 제시하였다. 첫째, 장애인복지관의 분배공정성을 향상시키기 위해 임금수준의 향상, 복리후생비의 지원. 비정규직과 정규직의 임금격차 감소 등이 필요하다. 둘째, 사회복지사들의 임파워먼트 수준을 높이기 위해 업무수행에서 자율권과 선택권의 부여, 전문적인 교육프로그램의 활성화, 소진 상태의 사회복지사들에게 적절한 휴식/안정/지지 등의 제공이 필요하다. 본 연구는 장애인복지관 서비스 수준의 향상과 장애인들의 바람직한 지역사회생활과 자립생활 영위에 기여할 것이다.
