Abstract: Quality healthcare can only be achieved through highly motivated and professionally competent workers. Hospitals are dynamic work environments, where healthcare workers face long hours, heavy workloads, and high pressure that can affect their engagement and job satisfaction. This study aims to analyze the effect of job demands (JD) on work engagement (WE) and its impact on job satisfaction (JS) among healthcare workers at Haji Hospital in Makassar, South Sulawesi Province. This study uses a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design. A total of 244 respondents were selected using random quota sampling. The data were analyzed using Path Analysis with SPSS AMOS 26 software. The results showed that job demand had a significant effect on work engagement (p=0.028) and job satisfaction (p=0.027). However, there was no indirect effect of job demand on job satisfaction through work engagement (p=0.114). These findings indicate that increasing work engagement and job satisfaction among hospital staff is more effective through the direct influence of job demands. Employees tend to be more engaged and satisfied when faced with high job demands.
