Title Health correlates of autonomy, control and professional relationships in the nursing work environment Type Journal Article
Year 2003 Publication Journal of Advanced Nursing Abbreviated Journal
Volume 42 Issue 3 Pages (up) 260-268
Keywords Workplace; Occupational health and safety; Registered nurses
Abstract The aim of this study was to examine nursing in New Zealand and to see whether aspects of the work environment are associated with health status. A total of 225 registered nurses in a general hospital completed the Revised Nursing Work Index (NWI-R) and Medical Outcomes Study (MOS) 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36). Ratings indicated that the New Zealand hospital environment was characterized by less autonomy and control and better nurse-physician relations than in USA hospitals. Results of correlations demonstrated that more positive ratings of the three workplace attributes were associated with better health status amongst the nurses. The results of regression analyses were indicative either of a confounding relationship or of a mediating relationship such that nurses' relations with physicians, administration and other departments mediate the associations between autonomy, control and health status.

Title What are the views of Generation Y New Zealand Registered Nurses towards nursing, work and career?: A descriptive exploratory study Type
Year 2012 Publication Abbreviated Journal Available from the NZNO Library
Volume Issue Pages (up) 290 pp

Abstract The author has taken a broad approach to this research to explore the views of Generation Y New Zealand Registered Nurses towards the nursing profession, the work itself and their career plans. This study arose out of the author?s interest in health care workforce planning for nursing and in particular the retention of young nurses given the current national and global shortage of nurses. Because of the broad and descriptive nature of the research, a wide variety of topics are included in the literature reviewed.

Chapter one provides background to the study and an overview of generational cohorts.

Chapter two explores selected literature relevant to the concept of work and the characteristics of the Generation Y workforce.

Other topics included in this chapter include Herzberg?s work motivation hygiene/maintenance theory and a selection of literature about key workforce recruitment and retention issues.

Title What are the views of Generation Y New Zealand Registered Nurses towards nursing, work and career?: a descriptive exploratory study Type Book Whole
Year 2012 Publication Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages (up) 313
Keywords Generation Y; Registered nurses; Workforce retention; Work-life balance; Careers in nursing
Abstract Undertakes a descriptive exploratory study to ascertain the views of Generation Y NZ Registered Nurses (Gen Y nurses) towards nursing, work and career. Little empirical data exists about why young New Zealanders choose to become nurses in the 21st century. Further, little is known about their future career plans or their intentions to remain in the nursing workforce. Conducts a nationwide on-line survey of 358 Gen Y nurses from late 2009 to early 2010. Reports key findings: young NZ nurses are driven by traditional values of altruism, the desire to care for others, the ability to work closely with people, as well as being able to make a strong contribution to society when deciding to become a nurse, while seeking interesting, challenging and exciting work. Job security, the ongoing demand for nurses, the ability to leave and return, as well as the ability to combine work and family, are also important factors that help them to choose to become nurses.
