This study explores the job satisfaction of General Disaster Managers (GDMs), who are responsible for disaster management in super high-rise and complex buildings with underground connections. As these structures increase in urban areas, the role of GDMs becomes more critical. Using a survey of eight job satisfaction items from the ‘Korea Network for Occupations and Workers’ (KNOW), data were collected from 95 GDMs and compared with ten other major job classifications. Results show GDMs ranked lowest in salary satisfaction, overall job satisfaction, and willingness to support their children choosing the same job. Despite their high responsibility, GDMs feel undervalued and inadequately compensated. Conversely, GDMs scored relatively higher in social contribution, job security, and growth potential, indicating recognition of the job’s social importance. The study calls for policy reforms to improve compensation and working conditions, alongside efforts to enhance the profession’s public image. Future research should include longitudinal and qualitative approaches to capture deeper insights.
