The influence of job satisfaction on retention of primary healthcare professionals in Tamil Nadu S. G. Balaji, , D. Charumathi, M. Riaz Ahmed, A. Appu, , , and International Journal of Advanced and Applied Sciences, 2024 Stability among healthcare professionals is considered critical to providing excellent care. Job satisfaction has a significant impact on the productivity and efficiency of human resources in the healthcare industry. This cross-sectional study examined the job satisfaction and retention intentions of healthcare professionals in primary healthcare centers in Tamil Nadu. Convenience sampling was used to collect data from 334 respondents using a validated structured questionnaire. The empirical research revealed that their work values were the most significant predictor of job satisfaction among PHC employees. On the other hand, time pressure had the least significant relationship with PHC employee satisfaction. The findings indicate that targeted interventions to enhance health workers' job satisfaction, reduce stress, and increase positive work values are essential to creating a positive work environment and increasing job satisfaction. This study adds to the literature on job satisfaction and retention of primary healthcare workers in Tamil Nadu. We recommend that healthcare managers promote and enforce PHC workers' work values to keep them positive. Work values and PHC workers' satisfaction and intention to stay have received little research attention. One of the first studies to empirically examine quality improvement, time pressure, commitment, compensation, and work values as dimensions of job satisfaction among health professionals in Tamil Nadu Primary Health Care Centers.
