This study intended to see the association between physicians' psychological distress and job satisfaction and how multiple factors like speciality and duty duration affect mental health and job satisfaction. This research was based on a cross-sectional research design along with a quantitative approach. The survey method was used to collect data from the targeted population, including resident physicians in public and private hospitals. The sample was designed using the snowball sampling technique. The Sample was comprised of 175 participants from multiple tertiary care hospitals. The age range of participants was 25-45 years. Self-reported measures, including the Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K10) and Job Satisfaction Survey (JSS), were used. Data was analysed statistically and findings revealed a significant weak negative association between psychological distress and job satisfaction. In studying demographic differences, Female residents have more psychological distress and less job satisfaction than male residents. The present study shows significant differences in education, type of employment, salary and marital status. Besides the limitations of the study, these findings could assist healthcare professionals and policymakers in using techniques and assessments that help residents improve their health.
