O presente estudo teve como objetivo avaliar o bem estar subjetivo, o bem estar no trabalho e
a satisfação no trabalho em trabalhadores cujas entidades patronais pertencem ao regime
Público e ao Regime Privado de modo a identificar correlações significativas entre estas
variáveis, tal como refere a literatura, mas também a proceder à comparação entre os
resultados das suas amostras, com a expectativa de que diferenças significativas seriam
encontradas. Foram utilizados como instrumentos a escala PANAS (Galinha e Pais Ribeiro,
2005) e a Escala de Satisfação Com a Vida - ESCV (Neto, 1993), a UWES-9 e o Questionário
de Satisfação com a Prática Profissional de Pais Ribeiro e Maia.
Os resultados vão, de uma forma geral, ao encontro do definido na literatura para as variáveis
em estudo, no entanto apenas foram encontradas diferenças significativas entre as duas
amostras no bem estar no trabalho, revelando a amostra de trabalhadores do regime publico,
um maior nível de bem estar no trabalho. Foram ainda encontradas diferenças entre estes 2
grupos na dimensão “Reconhecimento pelos outros do trabalho realizado” da escala de
Satisfação com a Prática Profissional.
ABSTRACT: The present study aimed to assess the subjective well-being, the well being at work and the job satisfaction among workers whose employers belong to the Public and the Private Sector, in order to identify significant correlations among this variables as mentioned in the literature, but also, to compare their results, with the expectation that significant differences would be found. The PANAS scale (Galinha and Pais Ribeiro, 2005), the Satisfaction with Life Scale - SWL (Neto, 1993), the UWES-9 and the Satisfaction with the Professional Practice Questionnaire (Pais Ribeiro & Maia) were used as instruments. In general, results are consistent with the literature in what concerns the variables under study. However, significant differences were only found for the two samples of the work well being, demonstrating a greater level of well being at work in the public sector. It was also found differences between these two groups in the dimension "Recognition of the work done by others" of the Satisfaction with Professional Practice scale.
