Health‐related quality of life in Chinese rural‐to‐urban migrants: Investigating the roles of working conditions and job satisfaction.

The existing research aims to explore the relationships between working conditions, job satisfaction and health‐related quality of life (HRQL) of Chinese rural‐to‐urban migrants. Both probability and nonprobability sampling methods were done in four randomly chosen jurisdictions of Nanjing (N = 712). Results reveal that the working environment has the strongest and positive correlation with job satisfaction. In addition, job satisfaction is negatively correlated with the number of working days per week, and affects the physical and psychological health status of Chinese rural‐to‐urban migrants. This study highlights the importance to improve working conditions for migrants and their HRQL and recommends government policies to provide services to Chinese migrants and protect their human rights, as well as promote awareness of their working conditions and HRQL.
