본 연구에서는 사회복지시설 종사사의 직무만족도 유형을 살펴보고 유형별 예측변인과의 영향관계를 검증하였다. 이러한 연구목적을 검증하기 위해 보건복지부의 '사회복지시설 실태조사'(2014년) 데이터에서 직무만족도 변인에 모두 응답한 11,660명을 최종 분석하였다. 잠재프로파일 분석결과, 사회복지사의 직무만족도 유형은 4집단으로 나타나 '최상 직무만족도집단', '중상 직무만족도집단', '중간 직무만족도집단', '최하 직무만족도집단'으로 명명하였다. 다항로지스틱 분석결과, CLASS4(최상 직무만족도집단)를 준거집단으로 하여 CLASS1(최하 직무만족도집단)과 비교해 노동강도대비 보수수준 평가, 타직종대비 보수수준 평가, 시설안전도, 인권보장도를 높게 인식할수록 CLASS4(최상 직무만족도집단)에 속할 확률이 높아지는 것으로 나타났다. 다만, 이직의사는 낮을수록 CLASS4(최상 직무만족도집단)에 속할 확률이 높아지는 것으로 나타났다. CLASS4를 준거집단으로 하여 CLASS2집단, CLASS3집단도 비교분석 하였다.

We attempted to provide a way to improve job satisfaction by analyzing the relationship between the factors influencing job satisfaction directly or indirectly by the ecological system factors of long-term care worker who provide elderly care services at home benefit institutions. In this study, job satisfaction was confirmed to have a positive (+) correlation with all ecological factors except for social and cultural environmental factors by setting the causal relationship between the social and social characteristics of long-term care worker and job satisfaction as dependent variables. The factors with the highest correlation with job satisfaction were social support, followed by family support, job conditions, trust in welfare policies for the elderly, self-efficacy, and self-esteem. Therefore, it can be seen that nursing care workers who recognize positive support from the surrounding social network and family surrounding nursing care workers and positively recognize job conditions are generally positive.
