Resumo(s)

Professional satisfaction is an important phenomenon due to its influence on the human mental resources and physical health, on their attitudes and on their behaviour, both professional and social. The purpose of this study is to assess the actual level of professional satisfaction of bioscientists working at a Lisbon hospital. A modified questionnaire which allowed the data collection was used for each subject, intended to characterize the sample, order the eight dimensions of professional satisfaction as well determining their levels by using a satisfaction scale. A statistical analysis was made by descriptive methods, Friedman test, Student’s t-test for independent samples and one-way ANOVA. In a sample of 30 technicians (25.42 % of the target-population), the most important dimension was Status/Prestige (7.12) and the least important was Remuneration (3.12). Global satisfaction shows that they are neither satisfied nor dissatisfied, although the dimension Professional-Patient Relation had better results, in opposition to Remuneration, which had the worst outcome. The study concluded that the sample’s level of professional satisfaction is not affected by gender, qualifications, years of technical experience and remuneration. The results reveal a state of accommodation and lack of interest regarding labor, which might be a consequence of the actual stagnation in their career. The replication of this study in other public and private institutions are of the most relevance, in order to obtain representative outcomes concerning the professional satisfaction of bioscientists at a national level.
