Abstract
MANY NURSES report that sabotage is a common event in the OR, and the level of sabotage present in the OR may have an effect on overall job satisfaction among perioperative nurses. THIS STUDY looked at the relationship between the presence of sabotage in the OR and job satisfaction levels reported by a group of perioperative nurses in New Jersey. STUDY RESULTS found that although sabotage is reported as common in the OR, the presence of sabotage is not significantly associated with reported job satisfaction.Keywords
