RT Article T1 Correlates of private security officers’ job satisfaction in South Korea JF International journal of comparative and applied criminal justice VO 46 IS 3 SP 313 OP 322 A1 Paek, Seung Yeop LA English YR 2022 UL https://krimdok.uni-tuebingen.de/Record/181054128X AB This exploratory research examines the determinants of private security officer’s job satisfaction. Despite the growing private security industries and their influence on security governance around the world, little is known about private security officers’ attitudes towards their work. In order to fill this gap, 436 in-house and contract security officers are analysed in the cultural context of South Korea. The impacts of job and organisational characteristics on job satisfaction are examined, and a subgroup analysis is performed to assess the differences in the predictors of job satisfaction between in-house and contract officers.
