Abstract EN
Job satisfaction of Primary Health Caregivers is critical for the improvement of health systems.
A cross-sectionai study was conducted by means of a questionnaire to evaluate the job satisfaction and stress in 323 Primary Health Caregivers in Qatar, of whom 176 (54 %) Physicians/General Practitioners responded.
Similar numbers of males (85 ; 48 %) and females (91 ; 52 %) replied; most were non-Qatari, aged 30-45 years, married with children.
The overall job satisfaction and stress were both below average.
There were no significant differences in overall job sat¬isfaction for nationality, sex, marital status and number of children, but female Qatari health caregivers were stressed more than their counterparts.
There was a negative correlation between job satisfaction and stress level (r = -0.29, p = 0.01).
Qatari physicians were less satisfied with their salaries and the variety in their work and stress was greater in Qatari Health Caregivers than Non-Qatari counterparts.
