Background/Aims Nurse burnout is a major issue among nursing staff and can affect the quality of nursing care. Little is known about burnout among nurses working in intensive care units in developing countries, such as Indonesia. This study was conducted to investigate and compare the prevalence of nurse burnout in private and public hospitals in Bandung, Indonesia. Methods A cross-sectional approach was used in the intensive care units of one private and one public hospital in Bandung, Indonesia, from June to July 2019. The Maslach Burnout Inventory was used to measure burnout levels among nurses. Univariate and bivariate data analysis was used to interpret the results. Results A total of 52 public hospital nurses and 66 private hospital nurses were included in this study. Burnout levels varied significantly between these groups, with private hospital nurses experiencing higher levels of emotional exhaustion (32.43±12.67 vs 29.35±9.78) and depersonalisation (10.23±6.58 vs 7.89±3.67) than public hospital nurses. Conclusions Over one third of both private and public hospital nurses experienced high levels of burnout syndrome, with nurses in the private sector being particularly affected. It is crucial for both public and private hospitals in Indonesia to adapt their working environments to protect the wellbeing of staff and the safety of patients by reducing the risk of nurse burnout.

The study included all nurses registered with Pakistan Nursing Council (PNC). Sampling was done by first acquiring the list of all the hospitals from Rawalpindi and Islamabad, 2 hospitals were then selected. Afterwards, the list of all the registered nurses was taken; sample size was determined by applying inclusion / exclusion criteria and by simple random technique by computer generated method. Data was analyzed by using SSS. RESULTS: Results showed that working conditions were more comfortable and working relations with male coworkers were friendlier in private hospital as compared to public hospitals. Satisfaction with the competence of senior nurses, and administrative support in service problems was also more in private hospital. Majority of public hospital nurses were satisfied with their profession because of manageable duty hours, pay and other benefits provided and administrative support in their domestic problems.

The study was borne out of the need to assess the effect of ethical climate on deviant behavior among employees in the educational institutions and the need to ascertain whether workplace deviant behavior has a force to bear with institutional ownership. Questionnaires (375) were distributed among the academic and administrative staff of Ekiti State University (EKSU), Afe Babalola University Ado-Ekiti (ABUAD), the Federal University of Technology Akure (FUTA) and Elizade University, Ilara-Mokin (EU); selected using multistage sampling technique. Descriptive statistics (table, percentage) and inferential statistics (simple regression) were employed to analyse the data. Simple regression was used to analyse the data. Based on the test of the hypothesis, the study found that deviant behavior among employees of selected public and private universities can be significantly determined by ethical climate factors. Ethical climate contributed significantly to deviant behaviors in the public and private universities showing probability of t-statistic (.012 &.022) lesser than 5%. Hence, it is concluded that the ethical climate or wrong ethical system is the major determinant of deviant behaviors in selected public and private universities.

The Relationship

Abstract Background: Workplace climate is great significant element that has impact on nurses’ behavior and practice; moreover, nurses’ service behavior contributes to the patients’ satisfaction and subsequently to the long-term success of hospitals. Few studies explore how different types of organizational ethical climate encourage nurses to engage in both in-role and extra-role service behaviors, especially in comparing the influencing process between public and private hospitals. This study aimed to compare the relationship between the five types of ethical climate and nurses’ in-role and extra-role service behaviors in public and private hospitals.Methods: This study conducted a cross-sectional survey on 559 nurses from China. All participants were investigated using the Ethical Climate Scale and Service Behavior Questionnaire. SPSS 22.0 was used for correlation analysis, t-test and analysis of variance test, and Mplus 7.4 was used for group comparison.Results: The law and code climate has a much greater influence on nurses’ in-role service behavior in private hospitals than on that in public hospitals (β = -.277; CI 95% = [-.452, -.075]; p < .01), and the instrumental climate has a stronger influence on nurses’ extra-role service behavior private hospitals than on that in public hospitals (β = -.352; CI 95% = [-.651, -.056]; p < .05). Meanwhile, the rules climate has a greater effect on nurses’ extra-role service behavior in public hospitals than it does in private hospitals (β = .397; CI 95% = [.120, .651]; p < .01). Conclusions: As the relationship between the five types of ethical climate and nurses’ in-role and extra-role service behaviors in public and private hospitals were different, the strategies used to foster and enhance the types of ethical climate are various from public to private hospitals. The caring and instrumental climate are the key to promote extra-role service behavior for nurses in private hospitals. And independent climate has great effect on extra-role service behaviors for nurses in public hospitals.
