Level of organizational engagement and associated factors in health staff working at public hospitals: a cross-sectional study in Vietnam
摘要
Workforce retention is a critical challenge in Vietnam’s public hospitals. This study assessed Organizational Engagement (OE) levels and identified associated individual and organizational factors.
MethodsA cross-sectional survey was conducted (n = 330) using a validated three-factor instrument (loyalty, pride, effort). Data was analyzed via SEM, CFA, and multivariable logistic regression.
ResultsThe OE scale demonstrated high reliability (alpha = 0.95) and strong construct validity. While overall engagement was high (mean 4.32/5.0), four factors independently predicted low OE: commuting ≥ 5 km (aOR = 0.27), dissatisfaction with job assignment (aOR = 5.29), inadequate recognition/incentives (aOR = 6.19), and negative working environment (aOR = 3.71).
ConclusionEnhancing recognition systems, role alignment, and working conditions is essential for sustaining workforce commitment.
