Experiences of organizational and social work environment among dental hygienists working in the private dental sector : A quantitative survey for dental hygienists in a region in southern Sweden (English)
Abstract [sv]

Bakgrund: Systematiskt arbetsmiljöarbete kan förebygga ohälsa och olycksfall på arbetsplatser. Genom god arbetsmiljö kan kvalitén på utfört arbete öka, arbetet göras mer hållbart för arbetstagare och vården mer patientsäker. Syfte: Syftet med studien var att undersöka hur tandhygienister inom privat tandvårdssektor upplever sin organisatoriska och sociala arbetsmiljö. Metod: Metoden var en kvantitativ tvärsnittsstudie med enkät som mätinstrument. Urvalet bestod av tandhygienister inom privat sektor i en region i södra Sverige. Insamlade data analyserades i SPSS med Spearman’s Rho korreationsanalys. Resultat: Enkäten besvarades av 28 tandhygienister som generellt visade positiva upplevelser gällande organisatorisk och social arbetsmiljö [OSA]. Fler antal anställda tandhygienister gav ökade upplevelser av att utvecklas i arbetet ( = 0,404, p = 0,033) och att behöva arbeta utöver planerad arbetstid ( = –0,477, p = 0,010). Fler yrkesaktiva år som tandhygienist ökade upplevelsen av meningsfullt arbete ( = 0,404, p = 0,033). Slutsats: Utöver de identifierade salutogena faktorerna i resultatet sågs utvecklingspotential för OSA inom dimensionen förändringsarbete. För att få förståelse och orsak till upplevd OSA kan vidare forskning via kvantitativ ansats vara av värde för att identifiera salutogena faktorer som kan bidra till förbättrad OSA.

Abstract [en]

Background: Systemically work environment enhancing work can prevent illness and accidents among employees at workplaces. Maintaining a good working environment can improve the quality of performed work, become more sustainable and increase patient safety. Aim: To investigate how dental hygienists in private dental sector experience their organizational and social work environment. Method: A cross-sectional study with questionnaire as measuring instrument was performed. The sample consisted of dental hygienists in private dental sector in Sweden. Data were processed in SPSS through Spearman’s Rho correlation analysis. Results: 28 dental hygienists responded to the questionnaire and reported positive experiences regarding organizational and social work environment [OSA] in general. A higher number of employed dental hygienists reported more positive experiences of work development ( = 0,404, p = 0,033) and required to work beyond working hours ( =–0,477, p = 0,010). More professional years as dental hygienist increased positive experiences of meaningful work ( = 0,404, p = 0,033). Conclusion: In addition to the identified salutogenic factors in the results, protentional for development regarding OSA was found in the dimension reorganization. To gain understanding and reasons for experienced OSA, research via qualitative approach would be valuable to identify salutogenic factors that may contribute to improved OSA.
