“…The primary outcome measure was the Global Job Satisfaction (GJS) instrument [16]. The GJS contains 12 items focusing on job satisfaction, which are scored on a scale ranging from À3 (strongly disagree) to 3 (strongly agree); such as, ''I feel my current position is right for me.''…”

“…According to the GJS, a sum score greater than 0 indicates that a surgeon is satisfied with his or her current job, constituting a binary outcome variable (satisfied versus not satisfied). This validated questionnaire was created based on a sample of emergency department physicians in Canada [16,24]. The survey was internally consistent in our sample (Cronbach's a = 0.77).…”

Background Burnout is common in professions such as medicine in which employees have frequent and often stressful interpersonal interactions where empathy and emotional control are important. Burnout can lead to decreased effectiveness at work, negative health outcomes, and less job satisfaction. A relationship between burnout and job satisfaction is established for several types of physicians but is less studied among surgeons who treat musculoskeletal conditions. Questions/purposes 123Clin Orthop Relat Res (2016) 474:1857-1863 DOI 10.1007 Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research ® Conclusions Among an active research group of largely academic surgeons treating musculoskeletal conditions, most are satisfied with their job. Efforts to limit burnout and job satisfaction by optimizing engagement in and deriving meaning from the work are effective in other settings and merit attention among surgeons. Level of Evidence Level II, prognostic study.

“…Job satisfaction was measured with a validated two-part questionnaire, which consisted of the Emergency Physician Job Satisfaction (EPJS) instrument, and the Global Job Satisfaction (GJS) instrument. 21,22 The EPJS survey consists of 82 questions and addresses administrative autonomy, clinical autonomy, availability of resources, work relationships, lifestyle, and job challenges; the GJS consists of 12 questions. Both instruments use a seven-point Likert scale, which ranges from strongly disagree to strongly agree and is scored from -3 to +3.…”

Objectives: While the prevalence of burnout in practicing emergency physicians has been studied, little is known of the prevalence and risk factors in emergency medicine (EM) residents. The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of burnout among EM residents and the individual-level factors associated with burnout.Methods: Eight EM residency programs were surveyed using the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI). Demographic data and data on job satisfaction and tolerance of uncertainty in clinical decision-making were collected using validated instruments.Results: Of 289 eligible residents, 218 completed the MBI (response rate = 75%). A total of 142 residents (65%) met the criteria for burnout. Complete data sets of the other instruments were obtained from 193 (response rate = 67%), and this group comprised our study population. Subjects having a significant other or spouse had a higher prevalence of burnout compared to single residents (60% vs. 40%, p = 0.002). Poor global job satisfaction (p < 0.0001), lack of administrative autonomy (p = 0.021), and lack of clinical autonomy (p = 0.031) correlated with burnout, as did intolerance of uncertainty (p = 0.015).Conclusions: Burnout is highly prevalent in EM residents. Interventions should be targeted at 1) improving resident autonomy in the emergency department where possible, 2) supervision and instruction on medical decision-making that may affect or teach individuals to cope with risk tolerance, and 3) social supports to reduce work-home conflicts during training.

“…Group, a musculoskeletal research collaborative, were surveyed using validated instruments [7,11] regarding job satisfaction and burnout. While they found that the vast majority of this cohort was quite satisfied with their current practice and profession, they did identify a correlation between the symptoms of burnout and decreased job satisfaction.…”
