Our aim was to identify the possible reasons behind the migration and attrition behaviour among Hungarian radiograhers. We
were interested wether the dedicated professional staff has concrete ideas across borders which can be connected with attrition.
For data collection we used one self made questionnaire and the Effort-Reward Imbalance (ERI) Questionnaire’s shortened version
according to international practise. Our target group were workers with diploma of diagnostic analysis. Our sample counted 216
radiographers (n=216). For data analysis we used the 13.0 verison of SPSS. We applied analysis of variance, paired sample T-test, Chi-
square test, linear regression and descriptive statistics with the performed probability of 95% (p=0.05). 30,6% of respondents (n=66)
were concerned about the idea of working abroad, 40,3% (n=87) of respondents is staying in Hungary just because of their current
life situation. At the group of 20-30 age we can espy significant relationship between the working opportunity abroad (p=0,001). The
migration tendency was specific for radiograhers with no children (n=54). We found a significant relationship between the working
ability abroad and the radiographers years spent in health care system (p=0,008). 41,7% of respondents (n=90) think that it will be
favorable option if they change career. We found significant relationship between possible working opportunity abroad and the desire
for higher wages and the lack of moving up in the radiographer hierarchy (p=0,001; p=0,001). Our research provides a broad view of
the migration and attrition tendency among Hungarian radiographers. According to our study serious changes should be involved in
the Hungarian system to keep the younger radiographers home.
