This study presents an exploratory investigation of SMEs in Vietnam to understand the impact of personal-level factors on middle managers' work motivation and the moderating role of work environment. A survey of 450 middle managers (MMs) in 150 Hanoi's SMEs was conducted. The findings of this research showed a significant positive impact of Achievement (ACHV), Recognition (RECOG), and Responsibility (RESP) on work motivation of MMs under the investigation. Furthermore, the result indicated that the work environment affects the relationship between personal-level factors and work motivation of participants. Consequently, both work environment improvement and strategies related to personal-level factors need to be taken into consideration. Especially, Recognition and transparency in Responsibility are appreciated in organizations with a low level of work environment satisfaction. However, there were no indications that Participation (PAR) and Communication (CMM) have a considerable impact on work motivation of respondents, being neither low level nor high level of work environment satisfaction. Based on the findings, recommendations are suggested for Vietnam's SMEs to improve work motivation of MMs, by (i) developing standards with emphasis on their achievement, (ii) paying attention to organizational culture focusing on the responsibility of this managerial level, and (iii) building an adequate incentive system, especially non-financial incentives.

Objective: This study aims to investigate the correlation between office and work environment satisfaction levels and workers' musculoskeletal symptoms by conducting surveys asking office workers to state their musculoskeletal symptoms and office and work environment satisfaction levels. Background: The increased number of office workers and their indoor work hours using computers have led to new understandings of the importance of office environment including its temperature, humidity, noise levels, lighting and quality of air, and work environment including monitor arrangement, space arrangement and the functions of desks and chairs. Method: Specific details on office work, office environment satisfaction levels, work environment satisfaction levels, musculoskeletal symptoms, absence from work and treatment due to musculoskeletal related symptoms were analyzed based on the survey answers given by 397 office workers who were the subjects of this research. Results: Office workers showed different characteristics of musculoskeletal symptoms depending on their gender, age, work experience, office hours, break time and time spent on computers. Also, differences in symptoms were found for workers'with different satisfaction levels for office environment (temperature, humidity, noise levels, quality of air, lighting) and work environment (location of monitors, area and display of office space, chairs and desks). ANOVA shows the differences between groups of subjects classified by the experience of work-absences and treatments or pain complaints. Conclusion and Application: Relationship between workers' satisfaction levels with the office and work environment and their musculoskeletal symptoms is expected to be served as essential data for systematic management of the workplace.

Background: A group health service is a system that delegates workplace health management to an entrusted institution. There have been various studies on group health services to date, but recent changes, such as an increase in foreign workers, are rapidly changing industry characteristics. Methods: Satisfaction was assessed using a 27-question survey distributed among 203 workplaces employing health professionals. The survey items consisted of general characteristics, comprehensive satisfaction, requirements for health professionals' work, and satisfaction with work environment management, ergonomic management, and healthcare management. Multiple regression and frequency analyses were performed. Results: The comprehensive satisfaction was 4.08 points on average, out of 5. The comprehensive satisfaction of health professionals in the industry was positively correlated with each factor. Hazardous materials and chemical management (material safety data sheets, MSDSs) were the most common requirements. Conclusion: A low level of satisfaction with work environment management indicates high demand for healthcare management. The working environment should be improved by identifying characteristics of the workplace, examining harmful substances, inspecting equipment, and enhancing worker methods. The shorter the work experience of health professionals, the more dependent they are on group health services. The variables affecting comprehensive satisfaction were the period of work, healthcare management satisfaction, and work environment management satisfaction. Most of the requirements of health professionals in the workplace were practical improvement case presentations, MSDSs, and legal document management.

Purpose: The present study was designed to find out how the quality of the work environment felt by physical therapists and LMX affect the turnover intention. In addition, we tried to find the mediating effect of LMX in the causal relationship between work environment quality and turnover intention, and to find ways to effectively lower the turnover intention of physical therapists. Methods: Survey tool has obtained validity and reliability through literature survey, exploratory survey and pretest and sample 365 was selected. To treat a pretest and main analysis, SPSS23.0 and AMOS23.0 were employed and structural equation model was employed as an analysis method. Results: Among the work environments, the human environment, the physical environment, and the compensation system were found to have an effect on LMX. In addition, the physical environment and compensation system were found to have a significant effect on turnover intention. LMX was found to have an effect on turnover intention and play a mediating role. Conclusion: In order to lower the turnover intention of physical therapists, the level of LMX should be increased by strengthening the factors of the working environment. This study shows that the management of LMX along with the working environment is an important factor in lowering the turnover intention of physical therapists, and this study has several limitations.

융복합 환경에서 인적자원 관리 차원에 입각한 개인-환경 적합성의 중요성이 부각되고 있다. 본 연구는 긍정심리자본의 매개적 역할에 주목하여, 개인-환경 적합성이 혁신 행동에 미치는 영향을 구조적 모델을 통해 검증하였다. 분석결과 개인-환경 적합성은 긍정심리자본과 이직의도에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 긍정심리자본은 개인-환경 적합성과 혁신 행동 간의 관계에서 중요한 매개효과를 갖는 것으로 나타났는데, 특히 개인-환경 적합성 자체가 혁신 행동에 직접적인 영향을 미치는 것이 아니며, 긍정심리자본이 먼저 형성될 때 혁신 행동을 증가시킬 수 있는 것으로 확인되었다.
