This study tested a model of burnout and life satisfaction among 109 German nurses. The model distinguished between job demands (e.g. time pressure) and job resources (e.g. rewards).

Structural equation modeling confirmed the effects of demands and resources on exhaustion and disengagement respectively, and burnout's mediating role between working conditions and life satisfaction. The findings contribute to understanding burnout antecedents and consequences, and provide guidance for preventative interventions.

This document summarizes a study that examines the effects of work alienation on organizational commitment, work effort, and work-to-family enrichment among midwives in the Netherlands. The study considers two dimensions of work alienation: powerlessness and meaninglessness. It hypothesizes that higher levels of work alienation, especially meaninglessness, will negatively impact organizational commitment, work effort, and work-to-family enrichment. Survey results from 790 midwives support the hypotheses, indicating that feeling powerless or that their work lacks meaning reduces commitment, effort, and enrichment. The implications are that managers should focus on increasing the meaning midwives find in their work to maintain work quality and performance.

Pledges to carry out across-the-boardaccountability

PESHAWAR: Lt-General (r) Hamid Khan, the newly appointed director general of the
Ehtesab Commission, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, has said that he would discharge his duty
without fear and favour to make accountable those involved in corruption and misuse of
powers.
When approached by The News on Wednesday soon after the notification of his appointment as the
head of the recently created provincial Ehtesab Commission was issued, he said the search committee
appointed by the government had approached him and offered him the job. “Mine isn’t a political
appointment. I am a non-political person and am taking up this appointment in the larger public
interest,” he pointed out. He added that he would ensure that the Ehtesab Commission carried out
across-the-board accountability.
Lt-Gen (r) Hamid Khan served as Corps Commander Peshawar from 2005-2007 and led the military
operations against the militants in the Federally Administered Tribal Areas (Fata) and Khyber
Pakhtunkhwa. Earlier in his military career, he had served as general officer commanding, Kohat. He
also remained the president of the National Defence University, Islamabad.
He didn’t take up any formal job after retirement from the Pakistan Army in 2009 and preferred living
on his farmhouse in Charsadda district looking after his agricultural fields. He also supervised the
working of a school being run by his family for the under-privileged students of the area.
Some months ago, he was made the head of the Pakistan Red Crescent Society, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa
chapter, in an honorary capacity. He began taking keen interest in this job to look after the needs of
the internally displaced persons and other needy people.
The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI)-led Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government had promised to set up an
independent Ehtesab Commission in the province as it had accused the federal government of being
selective in carrying out accountability. Chief Minister Pervez Khattak had said on numerous occasions
that their Ehtesab Commission would be so powerful that it could even make him accountable.
The provincial government had set up a search committee to propose the names of credible people to
become members of the Ehtesab Commission and also for the office of its director general. Among
others, the search committee had former Inspector General of Police Mohammad Abbas Khan, former
chief secretary Ejaz Qureshi and former Peshawar High Court judge Sher Mohammad Khan as
members.
The search committee recommended appointment of former Peshawar High Court judge Hamid Farooq
Durrani as head of the Ehtesab Commission and four others as its members. They are supposed to
make policies of the Ehtesab Commission while the task of the day-to-day running of the commission
would be handled by its director general, Lt-Gen (r) Hamid Khan.
