Abstract
The purpose of this study is to gain an understanding about how job satisfaction affects actual performance of physical therapists. Current year of 2022, 273 participants working as physical therapists were surveyed from September 8 to September 15, 2022. The questionnaire consisted of 69 questions, divided into 4 main parts; general characteristics; professionalism; satisfaction; turnover intention and stressor. Collected data were analyzed using three different methods (1) independent t-test, (2) one-way ANOVA, (3) multiple linear regression analysis. 100% of the participants are fully aware that expert professionalism is necessary in this field of physiotherapy. Therefore, individuals are striving to provide high-quality treatments by increasing their professional capabilities. The results have shown that they are investing 6 to 9 years (34.1%) of time mainly into attending related institutions and academies (50%). Though they are satisfied with their own choice of profession, inferior working systems, lack of social awareness, concerning wage, promotions, etc. hindered their level of satisfaction. As a result, the circumstances have led to job stress and turnover. If improvements such as adjustment of wages, and promotion matching with levels of professionalism, acceptable measures are systematically added as a part of the job, it is plausible that physical therapists can provide high-quality medical services as professionals with stability.
