The Relationship Between Job Satisfaction and Turnover Intentions Among Long-Haul Truck Drivers in the United States
No full textLong-haul truck drivers are in high demand due to persistent turnover rates. This quantitative correlational study explored job satisfaction levels among long-haul truck drivers in the United States and examined the relationship between job satisfaction, its components, demographic characteristics, and turnover intentions. Grounded in Herzberg's motivation-hygiene theory and Mobley's employee turnover model, the study surveyed a sample of 107 long-haul truck drivers. The research employed a survey instrument incorporating the Job Satisfaction Survey, the Turnover Intention Scale. and demographic questions related to gender, age, and tenure. Data analysis included descriptive statistics, Pearson's correlation, independent samples t-tests, one-way ANOVA, and multiple regression. Findings revealed a significant moderate inverse relationship between job satisfaction and turnover intentions, with operational procedures and rewards emerging as key predictors of turnover intentions. Additionally, results indicated that long-haul truck drivers generally experience moderate levels of job satisfaction and turnover intentions. Notably, drivers with one year of industry experience exhibited lower turnover intentions than those with one to two years of experience. This study offers valuable insights into the components influencing job satisfaction and turnover intentions, contributing to a deeper understanding of workforce retention within the long-haul trucking industry in the United States
Informal Intergenerational Learning and Its Influence on Knowledge Transfer Among Workers in the U.S. Electrical Utility Industry
No full textInformal intergenerational learning is a unique mode of learning occurring in organizations but has gone unnoticed and unstudied. This cross-sectional quantitative study explores informal intergenerational learning and its influence on knowledge transfer among Baby Boomers, Generation X, and Generation Y workers in the U.S. electrical utility industry. This research study utilized a 14-question survey and received 291 valid participant responses. The purpose of the study was to explore informal intergenerational learning and its influence on knowledge transfer among the three targeted groups to determine if perceptual differences existed regarding how informal intergenerational learning occurs, the types of knowledge transferred, attitudes toward interacting with coworkers of different generations, the degree of intergenerational interaction, and the level of impact on knowledge transfer based on informal intergenerational learning. The results showed that workers routinely engaged in informal learning activities and often exchanged tacit and explicit knowledge with coworkers outside their generation. The results also indicated that informal intergenerational learning is occurring and influencing knowledge transfer among industry workers. The study found similar perceptions among the groups rather than differences. Based on the results, implications for practice are proposed to organizations, leaders, and workers in and outside the industry to ensure informal intergenerational learning experiences and interactions are standard practice. This study highlights the importance and benefits of informal intergenerational learning in organizations.Keywords: Electrical utilities, informal learning, informal intergenerational learning, generational differences, multigenerational workforce, knowledge transfer, organizational learning, workplace learnin

Development and Implementation of a Workplace Violence Emergency Response Team in a Medical/Surgical Inpatient Setting
No full textWorkplace violence (WPV) is a significant issue in the healthcare industry, with the World Health Organization estimating that 8% to 38% of healthcare workers experience physical violence on the job. This violence, which most frequently arises from interactions with patients and their families, particularly impacts emergency departments, inpatient psychiatric units, and general medicine units. WPV leads to nurse burnout, stress, high turnover, and job dissatisfaction, ultimately costing the healthcare industry in lost wages and increased turnover rates. In January 2022, the Joint Commission updated its WPV prevention plans for accredited hospitals. The main triggers for WPV include medication administration, waiting for care, and delivering food or drink. The Behavioral Health Response Team focuses on clearly defined parameters, clinical expertise, a person-centered philosophy, a relationship-oriented approach, and sustainable outcomes to address and mitigate WPV
