The Characteristics of the Nursing Organizational Management Highlighted by COVID-19

ABSTRACT

The COVID-19 outbreak has raised awareness of the importance of increased motivation and resilience in nurses. To explore the level of nurse Job involvement in Z hospital in Zhuhai city of China, and the influence of Organizational justice and Organizational identity, a total of 125 nurses in Z hospital in Zhuhai city, Guangdong province, were selected by convenient sampling method and investigated with general information questionnaire, Organizational justice, Organizational identity,and Job involvement Scale. There were 114 valid questionnaires returned;The scores of nurse's Organizational justice, Distributive justice, Procedural justice and Interactive justice, Organizational identity,and Job involvement were 3.532±0.581, 3.397±0.691, 3.487±0.729, 3.840±0.641 and 3.912±0.615 respectively. The score of organization justice positively correlated with the scores of Organizational identity (r=0.627, P<0.001), and positively correlated with the score of Job involvement (r=0.627,P<0.001). The scores of Organizational identity were positively correlated with the score of Job involvement (r=0.724,P<0.001). The results of regression analysis showed that Organizational justice, Organizational identity can positively affect nurses' Job involvement, and explained 59.9% of the cumulative variance. At the same time,Organization identity played a partial mediating role between Organizational justice, as well as its three sub-dimensions and Job involvement. The scores of Organizational justice and Job involvement in selected nurses in Zhuhai are only a little higher than the average levels, which needs to be improved. The perceived Interactive justice is high while the Distributive justice is low. Nurses' Job involvement and Organizational identity can be promoted directly by increasing Distributive justice, followed by Interactive justice and Procedural justice. © The Authors, published by EDP Sciences, 2021.
