In addition, super-visor support and flexible working hours significantly and positively influence job (r= 0.520, p< .01; r= 0.520, p< .01) and life satisfaction (r= 0. 4 87, p< .01; r= 0. 4 87, p< .01). The study suggested that flexible working hours iarean indicator of what supervisor support (r= 0.656, p< .01) is to improve nurses’ job and life satisfaction.
