Abstract
This study aims to determine the job satisfaction level of midwives, and the factors that have an effect on those levels. This cross-sectional analytic study was carried out in a total of 21 health institutions including 17 primary health care and 4 secondary health care institutions in a city center. 428 midwives were included in the study. To determine the job satisfaction of midwives, the Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire (MSQ) was used. According to the scores obtained from MSQ, quartiles in ¼ were created. In statistical analysis, the difference between the mean scores among groups was analysed with independent samples t-test. P values less than 0.05 were considered significant. The results demonstrated that the majority of midwives had a moderate level of job satisfaction.
