The participants were recruited via systematic random sampling at every fourth interval. Besides, data were collected in 2019 using a self-administered questionnaire with items on sociodemographic characteristics (SDC), respondents&rsquo; work history (WK), and assessment of job satisfaction. The Job Satisfaction Survey tool was used to collect data on satisfaction with specific work domains. The overall job satisfaction assessed on a direct single-item scale included outcome variables. Additionally, variables of SDC, WK, and multidimensional domains were explanatory variables used in the logistic regression analysis. </span></span></span></span></span><br> <span style="font-size:10pt"><span style="line-height:200%"><span courier="" new="" style="font-family:"><span style="color:black"><b><span arial="" style="font-family:">Results:&nbsp; </span></b><span arial="" style="font-family:">Age increase, being a nurse or a pharmacist as against a laboratory scientist, holding a supervisory position, and an increase in weekly work hours reduced overall job satisfaction.
