Background
The study aimed to examine the level of satisfaction of nursing staff with their professional work and determining the factors influencing this satisfaction.

Material and methods
The research was conducted in 2020 in Podkarpackie Voivodeship, Poland, and comprised 435 nurses. The data were collected using the authors’ questionnaire, the Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire, and the Job Satisfaction Scale.

Results
More than half of respondents are satisfied with their work and working conditions. Regarding problematic situations at work, 59.3% received sufficient help from other staff members. The main reason for dissatisfaction among nurses was low salary and working under pressure (>50%).

Conclusions
According to the results, the nursing staff are devoted to their work and, in most cases, find it satisfying. Working with other people and providing help in difficult situations is of high value to all of them. It influences their job satisfaction, often undermined by difficult working conditions, low pay, and immense pressure.
