Abstract

The aim of the present study was to determine the level of job satisfaction among doctors in government and private hospitals. The study’s dependent variable is job satisfaction whereas independent factors include types of hospitals and male & female doctors of government and private hospitals. Data were gathered using the job satisfaction scale, developed by Sharma and Singh (2012). A random sample of 240 doctors from various hospitals of Jodhpur was collected including 120 doctors from government hospitals (60 male and 60 female) and 120 doctors from private hospitals (60 male and 60 female). Mean, SD and ‘t’ test were used to evaluate the data. The outcome shows that doctors working in government hospitals have more job-satisfaction as compared to doctors working in private hospitals.
