Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between workload, supervisory coaching, work engagement and job satisfaction among nurses. Ninety six participants were randomly selected among nurses from Sultanah Bahiyah Hospital, Alor Setar, Kedah. A cross-sectional survey technique was employed in this
study. Instrument for measuring job satisfaction was utilised from Weiss, Dawis,
England, and Lofquist (1967) while instruments for measuring workload was developed by Houston, Meyer & Paewai (2006), the supervisory coaching was developed by Karasek (1985) and the work engagement instrument was developed by
Schaufeli & Baker (2003). Data collected was analysed descriptively and inferentially
through the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS). Findings of this study
suggested that there were significant relationship between supervisory coaching and
work engagement with job satisfaction. However, no significant relationship was found between work load and job satisfaction among nurses in Sultanah Bahiyah Hospital, Alor Setar, Kedah. The findings of this study may provide guidelines for organizations such as hospitals and health centres to understand employees’ job
satisfaction
