Abstract

This study examined the factors influencing the happiness of employees of the SME manufacturing industry. Data were collected from 139 employees using structured questionnaires, and were analyzed by a t-test, one way-ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and Hierarchical regression analysis using SPSS/WIN Ver 18.0 program. In general characteristics, happiness was significantly associated with age, level of education, religion, monthly income, monthly income satisfaction, position in the working area, and way of working. Happiness was positively correlated with self-esteem and perception of interpersonal caring behavior, and was negatively correlated with job stress. The factors influencing happiness was self-esteem and perception of interpersonal caring behavior, which explained 46.6%. Self-esteem and the perception of interpersonal caring behavior should be considered for improving the happiness of employees. The results will form the basis of nursing interventions to increase employees' happiness in the SME manufacturing industry.

본 연구는 중소기업 제조업체 근로자의 행복감의 영향 요인을 조사하였다. 자료 수집은 이 연구에 동의한 근로자에게 설문조사를 통해 수집되었고 최종 대상은 139명 이었다. 자료 분석은 SPSS/WIN Ver 18.0 프로그램을 이용하여 T-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficients, and Hierarchical regression analysis을 실시하였다. 일반적 특성에 따른 행복감은 연령, 학력, 종교, 월수입, 월수입 만족도, 직급, 근무방식에 따라 유의한 차이가 있었다. 행복감은 자아 존중감과 대인 돌봄 인식과 양의 상관 관계를 보였고 직무 스트레스와는 음의 상관관계를 보였다. 행복감에 가장 영향을 미치는 예측 변인은 자아존중감이었고, 그 다음은 대인돌봄인식 이었다. 이 들 변수의 설명력은 46.6%이었다. 중소기업 제조업체 근로자의 행복감을 향상시키기 위한 전략을 세우는데 자아존중감, 대인돌봄인식을 고려해야 함을 확인하였다. 이는 중소기업 제조업체 근로자의 행복감을 향상을 위한 간호중재 방안을 계획하는데 중요한 기초자료가 될 것이다.
