Job satisfaction is linked to job performance in the workplace, and in the nursing context, it is critical in influencing productivity and patient care quality. The study adapts Hertzberg’s Theory to determine factors contributing to job satisfaction among nurses working at tertiary hospitals in Klang Valley. A cross-sectional study was conducted, and it involved 403 nurses who work in two public hospitals in Klang Valley. Samples were selected using simple random sampling, and data was collected using a self-administered questionnaire of 2 parts. Part A contained sociodemographic characteristics, and Part B measured job satisfaction. Descriptive analysis, correlation analysis, t-test, ANOVA, and multiple linear regression (MLR) were used. Results of bivariate analyses indicate significant differences in job satisfaction levels concerning age, marital status, year of work experience, and income levels (p<0.05). When analysed using multiple linear regression, only work experience significantly predicted job satisfaction (p<0.05). This research expands on empirical findings on nurses’ job satisfaction. In addition, this study is expected to benefit health institutions by providing information to assist policymakers in increasing the participation of nurses in the local workforce. © Penerbit UMT
