Abstract

Women who work in skincare clinics have demanding jobs. Literature indicates that these working environments are labour intensive and emotionally demanding. The aim of this study was to explore and describe the perceptions of job-satisfaction factors for women working in skincare clinics in the northern suburbs of Johannesburg, South Africa. In this study, individual semi-structured interviews, based on the philosophy of Appreciative Inquiry, were conducted. Data was analysed through thematic coding and strict ethical considerations and trustworthiness were adhered to. From the identified themes, eleven recommendations were derived aimed at improving the job-satisfaction of women working in skincare clinics.
