Objectives. Human resource management is the most important function in the management of organizations and significantly affects the quality of work-life (QWL). Recently, the health sector started to be interested in the QWL among doctors. The study aim was to assess the QWL among Polish medical residents. Methods. The questionnaire for the medical residents was prepared using data acquired from a review of the international literature. In October 2017, the questionnaires were completed twice by 10 residents with a 2-week interval to assess the inter-rater reliability. The online questionnaire was distributed between April and May 2018. Results. A total of 243 doctors responded, over one-third of whom were men. The QWL was very high for 2.06% of the participants, high for 23.87%, moderate for 27.16%, low for 38.27% and very low for 8.64%. Among the factors that significantly relate to the QWL are the number of working hours per week (p = 0.007) and the general quality of life (p = 0.000). Conclusion. Low QWL is the result of inadequate management in Polish hospitals and residents’ QWL still needs to be improved. We propose to conduct such a survey periodically among all young medical doctors to systematically improve their QWL.

目标。人力资源管理是组织管理中最重要的功能，并且显着影响工作生活质量（QWL）。最近，卫生部门开始对医生的 QWL 感兴趣。该研究旨在评估波兰医疗居民的 QWL。方法。使用从国际文献回顾中获得的数据为医疗居民准备了问卷。2017 年 10 月，问卷由 10 名居民完成两次，间隔 2 周，以评估评分者间信度。在线问卷于 2018 年 4 月至 5 月期间分发。结果. 共有 243 名医生做出了回应，其中超过三分之一是男性。2.06% 的参与者 QWL 非常高，23.87% 高，27.16% 中等，38.27% 低，8.64% 非常低。与 QWL 显着相关的因素包括每周工作小时数 ( p  = 0.007) 和一般生活质量 ( p  = 0.000)。结论。低QWL是波兰医院管理不善的结果，居民QWL仍有待提高。我们建议定期在所有年轻医生中进行这样的调查，以系统地改善他们的 QWL。
