Abstract

Personalereduktion og personaleforøgelse i den offentlige sektor kan være forbundet med usikkerhed og stress hos medarbejdere. Det er vigtigt, at offentlige ledere kender til de mulige konsekvenser af sådanne markante forandringer for deres medarbejdere. Det er også en ressource, hvis lederne har en personlighed, som modvirker potentielt negative konsekvenser. I dette studie undersøger vi, hvordan personalereduktion, personaleforøgelse og lederens personlighed hænger sammen med langtidssygefravær, jobtilfredshed og ledelsestilfredshed blandt 146 afdelingssygeplejersker og deres 3426 ansatte fra Region Hovedstadens hospitaler. Personalereduktion er forbundet med øget langtidssygefravær men ikke jobtilfredshed eller ledelsestilfredshed. Personaleforøgelse har derimod en sammenhæng med både mindre langtidssygefravær og større ledelsestilfredshed. Ledere, der er mere følelsesmæssigt afbalancerede, har medarbejdere med større jobtilfredshed og ledelsestilfredshed.
