Given the crucial role professionals play in maintaining the well-being of people with intellectual disabilities, their views on work satisfaction are relevant to analyse. A comparative analysis that takes into account the support provided in different welfare organisations can be of certain importance. The aim is to analyse the most common aspects of professional work satisfaction in work with people with intellectual disabilities in schools, healthcare, and social services, and to apply a comparative analysis of such experience taking into account respondents’ organisational affiliations. Data were collected using a digital questionnaire. Given the aim of the study, we drew on one open-ended question: ‘describe aspects of your work that are most satisfactory for you’. The analysis shows that respondents associated positive work experience with seven aspects: autonomy, competence, nature of the work, collaboration, trust and recognition, work environment, and service users. Findings indicate that discretion is an important facet of work satisfaction among respondents in all three organisations. Flexibility, autonomy in decision-making, the ability to plan and act within certain institutional and legal frameworks, and the ability to prioritise among daily work assignments are empirical examples of this.

鉴于专业人员在维护智障人士福祉方面发挥的关键作用，他们对工作满意度的看法值得分析。考虑到不同福利组织提供的支持的比较分析可能具有一定的重要性。目的是分析在学校、医疗保健和社会服务中与智障人士一起工作时专业工作满意度的最常见方面，并在考虑受访者的组织隶属关系的情况下对此类经验进行比较分析。使用数字问卷收集数据。鉴于这项研究的目的，我们提出了一个开放式问题：“描述你工作中最令你满意的方面”。分析表明，受访者将积极的工作体验与七个方面联系起来：自主性、能力、工作性质、协作、信任和认可、工作环境和服务用户。调查结果表明，自由裁量权是所有三个组织中受访者工作满意度的一个重要方面。灵活性、决策自主权、在某些制度和法律框架内计划和行动的能力，以及在日常工作任务中确定优先级的能力都是这方面的经验例子。
