Abstract
La satisfacción en el trabajo en empleados que inician su carrera
tiene un efecto significativo en la conducta laboral y en la actitud ante el
trabajo en los empleados. Este estudio investiga los factores que influyen
en la satisfacción en el trabajo y su relación con el bajas laborales. Se selec-
cionaron empleados en su fase inicial como sujetos de investigación. Se dis-
tribuyeron cuestionarios según un método de muestreo aleatorizado estrati-
ficado para analizar 418 muestras recogidas. Las dimensiones de la satisfac-
ción en el trabajo fueron analizadas mediantes análisis factorial exploratorio
y análisis factorial confirmatorio, y con ello se construyó un modelo de
ecuaciones estructurales para discutir la relación entre satisfacción en el
trabajo y los motivos de bajas laborales. Primero, para empleados iniciales,
la satisfacción en el trabajo como factor de orden superior consistía en seis
factores de primer orden; la influencia del desarrollo personal en la satis-
facción en el trabajo fue la mayor, con un coeficiente path de .918. El si-
guiente fue el salario y el bienestar, el trabajo por sí mismo, las relaciones
interpersonales y la conducta de liderazgo. Adicionalmente, la competencia
laboral tuvo un efecto mínimo sobre la satisfacción en el trabajo; su coefi-
ciente path es sólo .214. En segundo lugar, la satisfacción en el trabajo tuvo
un efecto significativamente negativo sobre los motivos de baja laboral, in-
dicando que la estructura de satisfacción en el trabajo de los empleados ini-
ciales tiene características propias, puesto que ellos se centran más en el
desarrollo personales y el espacio de desarrollo. Mejorando la satisfacción
laboral, la conducta de baja laboral de los empleados iniciales puede ser
controlada efectivamente.
Job satisfaction of early-career employees has a significant effect on employee work behavior and work attitude. This study investigated the influence factors of job satisfaction and its relationship with turnover in- tention. Early-career employees were selected as the research subject. Questionnaires were distributed and the stratified random sampling meth- od was used to analyze the 418 samples collected. The dimensions of job satisfaction were analyzed by exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis, and a structural equation model was constructed to discuss the relationship between job satisfaction and turnover intention. First, for early-career employees, job satisfaction as a higher order factor consists of 6 first-order factors; personal growth’s influence on job satisfaction is the greatest, with a path coefficient reaching .918. Next come salary and wel- fare, work itself, interpersonal relationships and leader behavior. Addition- ally, job competency has a minimal effect on job satisfaction; its path coef- ficient is only .214. Second, job satisfaction has a significantly negative ef- fect on turnover intention, indicating that the job satisfaction structure of early-career employees has its unique characteristics because they focus more on personal growth and development space. Through improving job satisfaction, turnover behavior of early-career employees can be effectively controlled.
