{"title":"The Effect of Long Working Hours as the Source of Stress on Employee Task Performance at a Teaching Referral Hospital in Nyamagana District, Mwanza-Tanzania","authors":"Anumie Mtweve, Proti Ponsian Ntui","doi":"10.46610/jplacms.2023.v04i01.001","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.46610/jplacms.2023.v04i01.001","url":null,"abstract":"This study’s primary goal was to evaluate how long work hours affect employees' performance at the teaching referral hospital in the Nyamagana District of Mwanza, Tanzania. The study had two other supporting objectives which are; to identify the extent to which Job insecurity affects employee job performance and to determine the effects of excessive work pressure on job performance. In this article, the author explains only how long work hours affect employees’ performance. This study used both quantitative and qualitative approaches. 103 staff members of the Teaching Referral Hospital in Mwanza served as the study's sample population. In order to justify sample representation, the percentile method was utilized to acquire 10% of the physicians and nurses employed at the Teaching Referral Hospital in Mwanza. Because of this justification, the sample size for doctors was 27 and for nurses, it was 71. Following nondirectional hypothesis testing, the findings of the zero-order correlations and the regression analysis were also shown and computed at 2-tailed levels of significance. Out of the 103 surveys that were issued, 103 were returned, yielding a 95.1% response rate. Amin (2015) states that a response rate of 95.1 percent is high and that findings from the collected respondents contain useful information since a decent representation of the survey population is at least 70%. The study's results demonstrate how variables like time management have an impact on work duties. The results imply that workload has an impact on the health of healthcare professionals.","PeriodicalId":109635,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Purchasing, Logistics and Supply Chain Management System","volume":"54 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122047781","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
