Radiologic technologists are essential to healthcare, working under pressure to provide accurate diagnostic images. Their job satisfaction directly influences employee retention and patient care quality, as emphasized by Stempniak (2023). This study examines the relationship between workload, team dynamics, and job satisfaction among radiologic technologists in selected hospitals in Laguna, utilizing data from 80 technologists through a structured questionnaire. The findings show that the workload is manageable, with positive feedback on patient engagement, duty hours, and task complexity. Team dynamics are strong, although employee retention remains a challenge. Job satisfaction is high, especially concerning service quality and professional development opportunities; however, salary satisfaction is a significant concern. The study reveals positive correlations between workload, team dynamics, and job satisfaction. This suggests hospitals must adopt strategies to improve workload management, promote teamwork, and address compensation issues to enhance job satisfaction. By fostering a supportive work environment, healthcare organizations in Laguna can improve employee retention and ensure high-quality patient care.
