Download or read book The Relationship of the Sensation Seeking Personality Motive to Burnout Injury and Job Satisfaction Among Firefighters written by Margaret Ann Jensen and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to determine the relationships among sensation seeking, burnout, injury, and job satisfaction among firefighters. Participants included 93 firefighters from a southeastern fire department. Each participant was asked to fill out a packet of self-report surveys including a demographic form, Sensation Seeking Scale Form V, Maslach Burnout Inventory, Job Satisfaction Survey, Absenteeism form, and an On-The-Job Injury form. This exploratory study provided an initial assessment of personality in relation to burnout and injuries in firefighters. The information from this study will hopefully help fire chiefs and administrators to better understand firefighters and the factors influencing their burnout, injuries, and job satisfaction. This information may, in turn, be useful in developing strategies to reduce burnout and better identify risk-factors affecting burnout and job performance in this population.

This book was released on 2021 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The need for volunteer firefighters continues to grow as communities expand and requests for emergency service response rises. The purpose of this study was designed to examine the relationships between the leadership behaviors of chief fire officers and the volunteer satisfaction and turnover intention of volunteer firefighters in North Central North Carolina. This study focused on the three leadership styles that comprise the full range leadership model, including transformational, transactional, and passive/avoidant. Three research questions supported this study which looked at the effects of leadership behaviors on volunteer satisfaction, leadership behaviors on turnover intention, and volunteer satisfaction on turnover intention. The research study questions were answered through testing the research hypotheses using statistical analysis techniques. Responses from 353 volunteer firefighters were analyzed to measure the significance of the relationships between study variables. The findings of the study indicate a statistically significant relationship between transformational and passive/avoidant leadership behaviors with both volunteer satisfaction and turnover intention. The findings show a positive relationship between transformational leadership and the volunteer satisfaction of volunteer firefighters, while a negative relationship existis between passive/avoidant leadership behaviors and volunteer satisfaction. The study also found a negative relationship between transformational leadership and turnover intention, which represents a decrease in the intention of volunteer firefighters to leave the organization. Alternatively, passive/avoidant leadership behaviors indicated a positive relationship with turnover intention, thus increasing the potential for turnover. Finally, the study results indicated a negative relationship between volunteer satisfaction and turnover intention of volunteer firefighters.

Download or read book Working Fire written by Zac Unger and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2005-02-22 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zac Unger didn’t feel like much of a fireman at first. Most of his fellow recruits seemed to have planned for the job all their lives; he was an Ivy League grad responding to an ad at a bus stop. He couldn’t keep his boots shined, and he looked terrible in his uniform. Working Fire is the story of how, from this unlikely beginning, Zac Unger came to feel at home among this close-knit tribe, came to master his work’s demands, and came to know what it is to see the world through a firefighter’s eyes. From the raw material of his days’ work—alarm calls both harrowing and hilarious, moments of triumph and grief—Unger has forged a timeless story of finding one’s path, and a rousing adventure about the bravery and sacrifice of everyday heroes.
