Introduction: Job Satisfaction is a complex, multifaceted and nonlinear issue, having several definitions and interpretations. The evaluation of Job Satisfaction is vital for organizations and, as such, it is necessary to evaluate it in a hospital setting. Goals: To analyze the scientific evidence about nurses’ Job Satisfaction in the hospital setting. Methods: Scoping review of the literature composed of three stages: The first stage was an initial research in CINAHL and MEDLINE databases; the second was further research, using the same keywords and search terms in the other databases of the EBSCOHost platform. Finally, the third was a research in the bibliographic references of the chosen studies. Articles were selected in the period of time between 2016 and 2021. Results: A total of 13 articles that provided information on nurses’s Job Satisfaction in the hospital context were included. They address both the influence of sociodemographic variables, the practice environment and other variables on professional satisfaction, as well as its results in clients and nurses. Conclusions: Nurses' Job Satisfaction is influenced by sociodemographic variables and external factors but mainly by the nursing practice environment and by the role of the nurse manager. This leads to positive results in nurses, but especially in clients, through the improvement of the care provided.
