21세기의 두드러진 특징 중 하나는 조직의 환경변화가 끊임없이 매우 불규칙적으로 일어나고 있으며, 그 변화 속도가 가속화되고 있는 것이다. 이로 인한 극도의 불확실성은 치열한 생존경쟁에 대응하며 지속적 발전을 추구하기 위해 각 조직 구성원의 적절한 활용과 중요성이 크게 대두되게 됐는데 이와 관련된 패러다임이 임파워먼트이다. 특히 일선 현장에서 근무하는 사회복지종사자는 사회복지의 근본 목적 달성을 위해 그들의 업무를 어떻게 수행할 것인가에 대하여 스스로 파악할 필요성이 강하게 대두되며, 자신의 능력을 지속적으로 개발해야 할 필요성이 있다. 이러한 사회복지종사자의 임파워먼트는 결국 직무만족에 큰 영향을 미칠 것이며, 이는 궁극적으로 사회복지의 실천적 과제 달성을 가능하게 될 것이다. 이 연구의 목적은 사회복지종사자가 임파워먼트 할 수 있게 함으로써, 그에 따른 직무만족을 향상시킬 수 있는 이론적 배경을 제시하는 것이다.
