METHODS: 423 oil production workers were investigated using the Occupational Stress Instrument. RESULTS: The job satisfaction, job organization satisfaction, job itself satisfaction in the workers aged < 30 years old (45.69 +/- 10.98, 22.63 +/- 6.16, 23.07 +/- 5.39 respectively) were lower than those in workers aged > or = 30 years old (49.34 +/- 10.12, 24.60 +/- 5.40, 24.74 +/- 5.36 respectively) (P < 0.01). The job satisfaction in the groups of different service length was significantly different. The job satisfaction in the workers of service length 5-10 years was the lowest compared with those of service length < 5 years and > 10 years (P < 0.05). The gender, education, marriage did not show obvious influence on the job satisfaction. The relationship between psychological health, work locus of control, coping strategies, affective balance and social support showed a statistical significance difference (P < 0.01). Regression was analyzed by taking job satisfaction as strain and personal characters, occupational stress factors, coping as independent variables. Five variables entered regression equation. They were work locus of control, affective balance, social support, psychological health and coping strategies. CONCLUSION: The job satisfaction of oil production workers is affected by multiple factors such as the age, work length and social support.
