 The COVID-19 pandemic has had a major impact on job satisfaction among healthcare workers in sub-Saharan African countries such as Ghana and Kenya. Our research shows that healthcare workers in these countries have experienced high levels of job dissatisfaction due to lack of preparedness, stress, and burnout. These factors have been shown to be associated with lower job satisfaction. Additionally, fear of infection has also been linked to decreased job satisfaction. To address this issue, it is important to increase preparedness, better manage stress and burnout, and improve job satisfaction, especially during the pandemic.
