美國公民最滿意的十大職業(yè)

Firefighters, theclergyand others with professional jobs that involve helping or serving people are more satisfied with their work and overall are happier than those in other professions, according to results from a national survey.

"The most satisfying jobs are mostly professions, especially those involving caring for, teaching and protecting others and creative pursuits," said Tom Smith, director of the General Social Survey (GSS) at the National Opinion Research Center at the University of Chicago.

In the current study, interviewers asked more than 27,000 people questions about job satisfaction and general happiness. Individuals' level of contentment affects their overall sense of happiness, Smith said.

"Work occupies a large part of each worker's day; is one's main source of social standing and helps to define who a person is and affects one's health both physically and mentally," Smith states in a published report on the study. "Because of work's central role in many people's lives, satisfaction with one's job is an important component in overall well-being."

Across all occupations, on average 47 percent of those surveyed said they were satisfied with their jobs and 33 percent reported being very happy.

Here are the Top 10 most gratifying jobs and the percentage of subjects who said they were very satisfied with the job:

Clergy-87 percent
Firefighters-80 percent
Physical therapists-78 percent
Authors-74 percent
Special education teachers-70 percent
Teachers-69 percent
Education administrators-68 percent
Painters and sculptors-67 percent
Psychologists-67 percent
Security and financial services salespersons-65 percent
Operating engineers-64 percent
Office supervisors-61 percent

A few common jobs in which about 50 percent of participants reported high satisfaction included: police and detectives, registered nurses, accountants, and editors and reporters.

"The least satisfying dozen jobs are mostly low-skill, manual and service occupations, especially involving customer service and food/beverage preparation and serving," Smith said.
 據(jù)美國一項(xiàng)全國性調(diào)查的結(jié)果顯示，消防員、牧師等從事幫助或服務(wù)于他人的行業(yè)的人員工作滿意度較高，而且總體上他們比其它行業(yè)的人更加快樂。

芝加哥大學(xué)全國民意調(diào)查中心普通社會(huì)調(diào)查的負(fù)責(zé)人湯姆·史密斯說：“滿意度最高的工作大多是一些需要特殊技能的職業(yè)，尤其是護(hù)理類、教育類、為他人提供保護(hù)以及一些創(chuàng)造性的職業(yè)。”

在目前的這項(xiàng)調(diào)查中，調(diào)查人員對(duì)2萬7千人就工作滿意度和總體快樂感進(jìn)行了訪問。據(jù)史密斯介紹，受訪者的工作滿意度對(duì)他們的總體快樂感有影響。

史密斯在發(fā)表的研究報(bào)告中說：“工作占據(jù)了一個(gè)人一天中的大部分，它是一個(gè)人社會(huì)地位的主要決定因素，而且能‘定義’一個(gè)人，在生理和心理上都會(huì)對(duì)人造成影響。由于工作在很多人的生活中處于核心地位，因此對(duì)于工作的滿意是生活幸福的一個(gè)重要因素。”

在所有職業(yè)中，平均47%的受訪者表示對(duì)自己的工作滿意，33%的人稱他們非?？鞓?。

以下是十大最令人滿意的工作及對(duì)此工作感到滿意的人數(shù)百分比：

神職人員--87%
消防員--80%
身體治療師--78%
作家--74%
特殊教育類的教師--70%
教師--69%
教育行政人員--68%
畫家和雕塑家--67%
心理學(xué)家--67%
安全人員及金融服務(wù)銷售人員--65%
操作工程師--64%
辦公室管理人員--61%

在普通職業(yè)中，有50%的受訪者對(duì)警察和偵探、注冊(cè)護(hù)士、會(huì)計(jì)、編輯和記者等職業(yè)的滿意度很高。

史密斯說：“滿意度最低的工作大多是一些技能要求低、手工和服務(wù)類的職業(yè)，尤其是顧客服務(wù)和餐飲準(zhǔn)備及服務(wù)的職業(yè)。”
