Abstract: (226 Views)
Introduction: The mental and psychological components of occupational health are influenced by the employees' lifestyle, and among these, two components of burnout and job satisfaction are of great importance. This study investigated the relationship between healthy lifestyle indices, burnout, and job satisfaction among office workers.
Materials and Methods: In 2018, a descriptive cross-sectional study involved 276 employees and experts from the central offices of a governmental bank. The data collection tools consisted of a researcher-designed Minnesota Job Satisfaction Questionnaire, the Maslach Burnout Inventory, and a self-administered Healthy Lifestyle Questionnaire.
Results: The average age of the participants was 34.37 years (±4.20), and their average work experience was 16.17 years (±4.3). Out of the participants, 81 (29.6%) were female. The average scores for job burnout and job satisfaction were 76.82 (±0.87) and 51.49 (±0.73), respectively. The average healthy lifestyle index score was 32.20 (±7.74). A significant negative correlation was discovered between lifestyle characteristics and burnout. Additionally, the overall score for lifestyle, as along with the nutrition and exercise components, was positively associated with job satisfaction. A 13.6% increase in job satisfaction was associated with improvements in a healthy lifestyle, while an increase in burnout of up to 49.1% was linked to a decrease in lifestyle score.
Conclusion: Enhancing lifestyles may reduce job burnout and improve employee satisfaction. Future cohort studies and more comprehensive research are recommended to explore this further.
