Job demands at nurses’ job need to be balanced with job resources plus supporting nurses to use job crafting techniques to maintain their work engagement. Aim: Exploring the effect of job demands-resources and job crafting on nurses work engagement. Method: A descriptive correlational design. The present study was conducted at El-Mahalla El-Kubra General hospital on 270 nurses by using three tools: Job Demands- Resources Scale, Job Crafting Scale and Utrecht Work Engagement Scale. Results: Positive statistically significant correlation between job resources, job crafting and work engagement and no statistically significant correlation between job demands and work engagement. Conclusion: Work engagement was highly related to job resources and job crafting. While, at the opposite side, work engagement had no significant association with job demands. Recommendations: Nurses should be developed professionally to cope with their job demands. Nurses’ supervisors should support nurses in using job crafting techniques. | ||
