    Abstract:
    Frontline power grid workers are always facing plenty of stressors such as aerial work and high job demands, which may lead them to be less satisfied with their job. Therefore, this study aims to investigate frontline power grid workers' job satisfaction (JS) and explore how it can be improved by its relationship with personality traits and work-family support (WFS). Data from 535 frontline power grid workers were collected from two power supply bureaus in Guangdong Province, China. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was adopted to examine the structural relationship between personality traits taken as independent variables, JS as dependent variable, and WFS as mediator. The bootstrap method was used to test the significance of indirect effects. Results suggested the overall job satisfaction of our sample is 3.34 ± 0.55 on a scale ranging from 1 to 5, and significantly correlated with personality traits and WFS. Moreover, the results of SEM and bootstrap indicated that WFS partially mediates the effect of neuroticism on JS and fully mediates the effect of conscientiousness and extraversion on JS. These findings shed light on how personality traits and environmental factors jointly impact JS and highlight the important role of WFS among frontline power grid workers.
