High job satisfaction among NHS staff UK
More than 200,000 members of staff completed the Commission of Health Improvement (CHI) survey.
One of its key findings was that staff are generally happy in their work, with almost three-quarters of those surveyed saying they were satisfied with their jobs.
Other findings showed that nine out of 10 NHS staff had received some form of training in the past year and three-quarters had spent at least one day on courses provided or paid for by their employing trust.
Nearly two-thirds of all staff also reported that their employer offered them a good work-life balance and 71 per cent were happy with their management leadership and supervision.
Three out of four staff said they did routinely work longer than their contracted hours but one in three staff now are working less than 30 hours a week, taking advantage of more flexible working arrangements with their employer.
Unfortunately, nearly 40 per cent of NHS staff said they had experienced harassment, bullying or abuse during the last year in their work, with 1.5 per cent reporting violence from patients and their relatives.
A breakdown of the results by PCT and NHS trust is available at
