  Abstract: Objective: This study discusses the job preferences of Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) staffs at the prefectural-level, and provides a basis for the development of an effective incentive mechanism. Method: This study used a combination of stratified sampling and purposive sampling to research online 455 staffs from six prefectural-level CDCs in Shandong Province, analyzed the data using a mixed logit model and latent class model, and calculated willingness to pay and relative importance. Result: In the mixed logit model, income, benefit level, establishment, workload, recognition and respect from the public, personal career development opportunities, and training opportunities all had significant influences (P<0.05) on the job selection preferences of the CDC staffs, with hygiene factors such as establishment (β=2.636) and income (β=0.083) having a greater degree of influence than motivation factors. The latent class model shows that relatively young CDC staffs with lower monthly incomes value income more; older CDC staffs with higher monthly incomes value establishment more. Conclusion: Prefectural-level CDC staffs prefer jobs with establishment, higher incomes, very good benefit levels, recognition and respected from the public, lower workloads, many opportunities for personal career advancement and abundant training opportunities. It is recommended that the total number of establishments be rationally controlled and dynamically adjusted to balance the differences between working conditions within and outside the establishment and that the financial input to CDC be increased and the pay performance system be improved; that attention be paid to both hygiene factors and motivation factors, and that a variety of measures work together to incentivize CDC staffs development; and that differentiated incentives be adopted for different categories of CDC staffs.
