Description
Sophie Pajoux and Valerie Loizeau studied how joint scheduling affects nurse morale and loyalty in France, in a 2026 mixed-methods study. Transformed by successive crises including COVID-19, hospital organizations face imbalance, absenteeism, and fading motivation. The team studied 208 hospital nurses in 2024 with a two-stage design.
Nurses' active role in schedule preparation raised morale, and empowerment plus team discipline reinforced morale and involvement. Joint management thus acts as a lever for hospital appeal and loyalty building. The authors stress gradual adoption of team governance and a central role for front-line managers in enabling adaptable, flexible workplaces.
