In this study, we investigated the factors affecting job satisfaction from the perspective of employees working in the health system and thereby a quantitative measure of job satisfaction.

BACKGROUND It has been argued that the association between job strain and health could be confounded by early life exposures, and studies have shown early adversity to increase individual vulnerability to later stress. We therefore investigated if early life exposure to adversity increases the individual's physiological vulnerability job strain in adulthood. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS In ...

Business Process Standardization (BPS) leads to significant changes in employees’ working environment which affect acceptance for such initiatives. Organizational psychology and management research have examined the influence of work design on employee behavior (e.g., turnover). Based on that, we develop a model to analyze the impact of job characteristics, such as skill variety, autonomy, or t...

In this paper, we present a constructive heuristic to minimize total flow time criterion for the well-known NP-hard no-wait flow shop scheduling problem. It is based on the assumption that the priority of a job in the initial sequence is given by the sum of its processing times on the bottleneck machines. The initial sequence of jobs thus generated is further improved using a new job insertion ...
