The study investigated influence of work schedule and occupational stress on job satisfaction among hospital workers in University of Uyo Teaching Hospital, Uyo, Akwa Ibom State. Two hundred and sixty-four (264) participants were used for the study; their ages ranged from 18 to 62 years with a mean age of 33.74 years. An ex-post facto design was adopted of the study. Valid questionnaires were used for data collection which were Occupational Stress Scale developed by American Institute of Stress (2008) and Job Satisfaction Survey developed by Spector (1994). Stratified sampling method was used to select participants for the study. The result [F (1, 265) = 5.09, P<.05] indicated that hospital workers that operate shift work were more satisfied with their job than hospital workers that operated non-shift work. The result [F (1, 265) = 1.02, P>.05]indicated that occupational stress does not exert significant influence on job satisfaction among hospital workers.Furthermore, the interaction of work schedule and occupational stress did not significantly influence job satisfaction among hospital workers studied [F (1, 265) = .58, P> .05]. It was suggested that managements of hospital should consider increasing the works done through shift duties.
