Al determinar esta en ambitos hospitalarios como unidades de cuidado intensivo y en la Atencion Primaria en Salud en ambito comunitario, a traves del autoreporte de 280 enfermeros con la aplicacion del cuestionario Font roja de 24 items, se encuentra que el 39,6% de la poblacion esta entre los 20 y 30 anos, donde el ambito comunitario posee medias mas elevadas y estadisticamente significativas (p=0,00) en la relacion interpersonal con sus jefes y companeros, percepciones que favorecen a la autonomia del profesional de enfermeria. El ambito hospitalario goza de mayor satisfaccion por el trabajo, de igual forma se satisface mejor con la competencia profesional. La monotonia laboral que manifiesta la escasa variedad del trabajo es autodeclarada con una media mayor en el ambito comunitario, y afirmada con un OR de 2,36 (p=0,00) considerandose un factor de riesgo para este. Para concluir, la satisfaccion laboral comparada en dos ambitos laborales ratifica una realidad ante la insatisfaccion de las relaciones interpersonales con los companeros y jefes del ambito hospitalario y la monotonia como factor de riesgo en ambientes comunitarios.
