Abstract

Background: Workplace incivility is a serious concern in the healthcare setting worldwide. Addressing how sexism impacts this, may help administrators take action to reduce this problem and to increase safety at work.

Methods: 557 nurses (63% women) read a hospital scene describing an episode of incivility from a nurse leader towards a nurse employee. They then evaluated the situation regarding their awareness, tolerance, and their beliefs toward sexism by completing a self-report questionnaire.

Findings: Two distinct nurse profiles emerged: high-sensitivity and medium-sensitivity. Medium-sensitivity nurses were significantly higher in sexism in employment, and differ in their evaluation of workplace incivility from highly sensitive nurses.

Conclusions: The majority of nurses are sensitive to workplace incivility, but those with sexist tendencies in employment are less aware and tolerate uncivil episodes to a greater extent.

Application to practice: Training nurses to be aware of workplace incivility is necessary, especially for those demonstrating sexism.

护士在评估不文明行为中的特征:即使是轻微的就业性别歧视也会影响评估。
背景:工作场所的不文明行为在全世界的医疗环境中是一个严重的问题。解决性别歧视如何影响这一问题,可能有助于管理人员采取行动减少这一问题,并提高工作安全。方法:557名护士(63%为女性)阅读一篇描述护士领导对护士员工不礼貌行为的医院场景。然后,他们通过填写一份自我报告问卷来评估他们对性别歧视的意识、容忍度和信念。结果:出现了两种不同的护士特征:高敏感性和中等敏感性。中等敏感护士在就业性别歧视方面显著高于高度敏感护士,对工作场所不文明行为的评价与高度敏感护士存在差异。结论:大多数护士对工作场所不文明行为敏感,但有性别歧视倾向的护士对工作场所不文明行为的认知程度较低,对不文明行为的容忍度较大。应用于实践:培训护士意识到工作场所的不文明行为是必要的,特别是对那些表现出性别歧视的人。
