This book was released on 2017 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study explores the relationship between emotional intelligence and job satisfaction amongst Child Welfare Social Workers. Eighty-six Child Welfare Social Workers from a public child welfare agency in Southern California voluntarily completed a self-report survey with sections evaluating demographics, job satisfaction, and general emotional intelligence. Relevant literature and a cross-sectional research design were utilized to highlight the findings of the relationships between participants' levels of job satisfaction and emotional intelligence. The findings of this study suggest that there is a significant relationship between participants' emotional intelligence and overall job satisfaction. Additionally, there appears to be a significant relationship between emotional intelligence and a healthy work-life balance. Though this research is not conclusive, it does offer insight as to how these factors potentially impact work in child welfare. There is a need for additional research particularly because there is minimal literature regarding emotional intelligence and job satisfaction in the field of Child Welfare.

Download or read book Strengthening the Retention of Child Protection Workers written by Kenneth Burns and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2012-12 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines a key issue in the field of human and social services: how to retain workers in child protection and welfare organisations. Research over the last decade has highlighted the turnover of these workers as being a pressing and perennial issue that impacts upon service users, staff welfare, resources and the reputation of this sector. This book presents the findings of a study examining social workers' retention in child protection and welfare. The findings from this study highlights how workers' retention is influenced by exchanges relationships with colleagues and managers, and this book presents a unique 'career preference' typology which expands our understanding of how workers make decisions to stay or leave based upon their pre-conceptions of career pathways post-qualification. The book also examines findings associated with the employment mobility of these workers within child protection and tracks their next post after leaving, which provides some surprising findings regarding how we understand and measure turnover for these workers. The book also examines rich qualitative data from these workers' experiences of being a social worker in child protection associated with; job satisfaction, commitment to child protection and welfare work, making a difference, quality of supervision, autonomy, and exchange relationships with peers, all of which emerged as important factors in social workers' decisions to stay or leave. The implications of this study's findings for theory are also explored. Kenneth Burns is deputy course director of the Master of Social Work and a research associate with the Institute for Social Science in the 21st Century at University College Cork, Ireland.

Book excerpt: Purpose: Burnout affects the quality of services provided to clients, the health and wellbeing of employees, and contributes to the infamously high turnover rates in social work. The purpose of this study is to use the professional quality of life model and the constructivist self-development theory to explore how social support and work-related factors influence risk of burnout. Research questions: 1) Does social support serve as a protective factor? 2) Are there other contributing factors that increase risk of burnout? Methods: Qualtrics was used to create an online survey, administered via email to 55 employees of the Department of Social Services. The survey included the Professional Quality of Life scale and Berlin Social Support Scales. Results: The only hypothesized significant relationship found was between number of hours worked per week and secondary traumatic stress. Another significant finding was that compassion satisfaction was higher in older social workers. Discussion: A larger sample is needed to show additional significant correlations. Future research should focus on gaining a better understanding of the causes of burnout and secondary traumatic stress in order to increase compassion satisfaction and other protective factors to proactively treat the problem.
