Purpose: To determine the extent to which employee satisfaction in the hospital health care system is related to the psychological complexity of their job. ----- Subjects and Methods: 120 respondents participated in the study.The primary research involved conducting an anonymous survey questionnaire.The questionnaire was conducted in the unified emergency reception of KB Sveti Duh and in the pharmaceutical company Pharmas d.o.o. Respondents answered the questions. ----- The results: The study found that unified emergency admissions staff work in psychologically demanding conditions while the situation at the pharmaceutical company is not. The work of unified emergency admissions staff is mostly related to working with patients, whereas this is not the case in a pharmaceutical company. The biggest obstacles in the work of the respondents from the unified emergency admissions are: numerous work tasks, insufficient opportunity for advancement and insufficient information. Pharmaceutical company employees are much less exposed to these problems. Although both groups of respondents love their jobs and do not think their work is insignificant and unappreciated, however, the benefits and pay satisfaction are lower for unified emergency admissions staff than for pharmaceutical companies. ----- Conclusion: The results of the research show that unified emergency admissions staff work in psychologically demanding circumstances and that the situation is not sufficiently taken into account, which is evident at the level of their salaries and opportunities for advancement.On the other hand, the work of pharmacists is significantly less psychologically demanding and their satisfaction with pay and opportunities for promotion is greater.
