Abstract
Introduction: Quality of work life among nurses can affect organizational productivity and quality of care. This study aimed to review the outcome of research conducted in this field. Methods: In this study, five major databases, including Google Scholar, PubMed, ScienceDirect, Scopus, and Web of Science were searched for relevant papers published between 2000 and October 2020 using the following keywords: ‘nurse’, ‘nursing work life’, ‘quality of work life’, ‘nurses' quality of work life’, and ‘scale’. Finally, ten relevant studies were included in the study and the tools introduced in the selected articles were assessed according to the COSMIN checklist. Results: Out of 298 retrieved articles, nine related studies were analyzed based on the COSMIN checklist. None of these tools had all the features listed in COSMIN checklist. However, all tools had acceptable internal consistency and construct validity. Conclusions: Designing a valid and special tool to measure the quality of work life among the nurses is necessary to improve the quality of mental and physical conditions, prevent leaving the nursing job, increase motivation and willingness to work as a nurse, and increase productivity for nurses and organizations.
