ABSTRACT = {This study aimed to investigate the mediating effect of disaster 
relief workers’ job satisfaction in the relationship between their perception 
of survivors’ rights and their performance of human rights advocacy. Two 
hundred disaster relief workers in Korea were invited to complete
structured questionnaires pertaining to their perception of survivors’ rights, 
job satisfaction, and their performance of human rights advocacy, and the 
relationships between these variables were analyzed using correlation and 
multiple regression analysis. There were significant positive correlations 
between disaster relief workers’ perception of survivors’ rights, job 
satisfaction, and performance of human rights advocacy in this study. The 
higher their perception of survivors’ rights, the greater their performance 
of human rights advocacy and job satisfaction. Job satisfaction also acted 
as a mediator to increase the impact of their perception of survivors’ rights 
on their performance of human rights advocacy. In order to improve the 
human rights advocacy performance of disaster relief workers, it is 
necessary to raise their perception of survivors’ rights and increase their 
job satisfaction by providing a safe and nondiscriminatory work 
environment for them.},
