O interesse por estudar factores organizacionais que
perspectivem compreender a intensidade e estabilidade
da dedicação do indivíduo à organização, baseia-se no
pressuposto da existência de uma associação desses
factores a variáveis consideradas importantes para o
aumento da eficácia e da produtividade organizacional.
Os empregados constroem uma convicção relativa ao
comportamento da organização para consigo e numa
perspectiva social da troca, quando percebem um nível
elevado de suporte organizacional sentem possivelmente
uma obrigação de “recompensar” a organização.
O trabalho empírico centra-se na percepção de
suporte organziacional de enfermeiros, analisando a
relação entre algumas variáveis sócio-demográficas e
profissionais e essa percepção.
A amostra é constituída por 1027 enfermeiros de
três unidades hospitalares do sector público administrativo.
A ‘percepção do suporte organizacional’
apresenta, numa escala de 1 a 5, um valor médio de
2.82±66, encontrando-se diferentes níveis nos três
hospitais. Os enfermeiros com mais idade, com mais
tempo na profissão e com mais tempo na instituição
revelam melhor percepção de suporte organziacional.
As enfermeiras percepcionam melhor suporte que os
enfermeiros. Entre as categorias profissionais não se
encontrou diferença estatisticamente significativa na
percepção do suporte organizacional.

Employees creat a conviction related to the behavior of the organization towards them.
