Abstract(s)
Esta investigação tem como objetivo identificar quais os valores do trabalho que são
percecionadas como mais importantes, de acordo com as três fases de carreira na vida de um
colaborador, tendo sido consideradas como ponto de partida, as Fases de Descoberta, de
Consolidação e de Maturidade, como propõe Paul Evans (1986). Complementarmente,
verificar se as fases de carreira, são preditoras dos valores perante o trabalho e perceber se os
valores têm ou não influência na Satisfação Laboral.
Inicialmente colocou-se uma hipótese geral: As Fases de Carreira são preditoras dos
valores de Trabalho e estes, por sua vez, têm um impacto na Satisfação Laboral e
consequentemente foram colocadas duas hipóteses exploratórias, sendo que (1): Os valores
perante o trabalho estão associados às Fases de Carreira e (2): A Satisfação Laboral é
influenciada pelos valores de trabalho
Participaram neste estudo 191 participantes, colaboradores em diferentes organizações
restringindo-se à população portuguesa e residente em Portugal.
Relativamente à Escala de Valores perante o Trabalho e após respetivo tratamento e
análise, foram identificadas quatro dimensões, que constituem os quatro valores de trabalho a
considerar nesta investigação: Recompensas e Reconhecimento; Responsabilidade e
Cidadania Organizacional; Desenvolvimento de Competências e Relacionamento
Interpessoal.
Após o tratamento estatístico dos dados e observando os resultados dos testes às duas
conclui-se que as Fases de Carreira são preditoras de dois dos quatro valores considerados
neste estudo, nomeadamente as Recompensas e Reconhecimentos e o Desenvolvimento de
Competências.
Outra conclusão desta investigação, determina que qualquer um dos quatro valores
perante o trabalho, mostraram ter influência na Satisfação Laboral.
ABSTRACT: This investigation aims to identify the work values that are perceived as most important, according to the three career stages in the life of an employee, having been considered as a starting point, the Discovery Phase, Consolidation and Maturity, as proposed Paul Evans (1986). Additionally, verify if the career stages are predictors of values towards work and realize if those values have or not influence on the Labor Satisfaction. As a starting point of this investigation, a general hypothesis was placed: The Career Phases are predictors of work values and these have an impact on Labor Satisfaction and, consequently, two exploratory hypotheses were placed (1): The values towards work are associated with the Career Stages and (2): The Labor satisfaction is influenced by the work values. 191 participants consisted in this sample, employees in different organizations and restricted to the Portuguese population and resident in Portugal. Regarding the Values Scale towards the Work, and after respective processing and analysis, have been identified four dimensions, which are the four working values to be taken in this investigation, namely: Rewards and Recognition; Responsibility and Organizational Citizenship; Skills Development; Interpersonal Relationship. After the statistical processing of the data and observing the tests results to both hypotheses, it is concluded that career stages are predictors of two of the four values considered in this study, namely the Reward and Recognition and Recognition and Skills Development. Another conclusion determines that any of the four values towards work shown influence in the Labor Satisfaction.
