MARYSOL, Ansa P  y  ACOSTA, Ana. The Attitude Toward Work Held by Administrative Personnel in the Humanistic Nucleus of the University of Zulia . Revista de Ciencias Sociales [online]. 2008, vol.14, n.1, pp.121-130. ISSN 1315-9518.

The objective of this study was to determine the attitude toward work held by the administrative personnel in the Humanistic Nucleus of LUZ. The study was descriptive with a non-experimental, transectional, field research design. A simple random sampling was applied and a sample of seventy-three (73) subjects was obtained. As an instrument for collecting information, a questionnaire with a Likert-type scale was used, whose reliability was 97.2%. Results obtained reflect that among the administrative personnel, commitment to the institution and participation in the work exists; nevertheless, not all employees are satisfied with their work in terms of the physical conditions that exist, remuneration and rewards received. Therefore, it can be concluded that among the administrative personnel in the Humanistic Nucleus at LUZ, an attitude with a positive or favorable tendency exists toward the job and the institution; nevertheless, it is necessary to take measures to improve the aspect related to worker satisfaction.
