Abstract

The work environment impacts nurses' level of work engagement. Nurses are working outside of traditional hospital settings and moving into industries such as the managed care arena. This impacts the way work is experienced as many practices such as telecommuting are more prevalent in the managed care setting. The purpose of this study is to understand the effects of telecommuter status, manager leadership style, structural empowerment, and job satisfaction, on nurses' level of engagement in the managed care workplace setting..
