Employing employees's well-being in organisational change contexts : a qualitative studyNel, Dedrieka Magdalena 01 1900 (has links)
The main purpose of this study was to explore the impact of organisational change on
the lived experiences of employees’ well-being. A sample of six employees participated
in the study. The requisite data was obtained using semi-structured interviews. The
literature review aimed to conceptualise organisational change and its related
constructs, to explore employee well-being and its related constructs, and to
understand the impact of organisational change on employees’ well-being in
organisational contexts. The specific aims of the empirical study were to explore the
impact of organisational change on employee well-being, to provide a basic framework
that may assist organisations in managing change initiatives directed at enhancing
employee well-being, and to formulate recommendations for possible future research
on the impact of organisational change on employee well-being.
The findings of this study indicated that the impact of organisational change on
employees’ well-being is generally negative owing to the uncertainty of moving from
the known to the unknown. All employees are impacted by organisational changes.
The findings further indicated that the adverse impacts of organisational change may
be moderated by communication, participation in the organisational change process
and support. / Industrial and Organisational Psychology / M. Com (Industrial and Organizational Psychology)

A needs assessment for an employee assistance programme (EAP) for the Department of Water Affairs and Forestry in the Northern ProvinceBell, Nadene Joy 31 January 2003 (has links)
The aim of the study is to design a needs assessment data collection instrument; administer it to a representative sample of employees in the department; and to analyze the findings in order to make recommendations regarding the design of an Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) for the Department of Water Affairs and Forestry (DWAF) in the Northern Province.
The literature review concentrates on the design and application of needs assessments for EAPs.
A data collection instrument, the SAGENA was designed, piloted and then trans,ated into the major languages spoken by DWAF employees in the region, and content is given.
Out of the total population of 7,381 employees, a stratified, random sample of DWAF employees was selected for the study. A total of 550 employees completed the questionnaire, which represented a 7,45% sample with a 93% response rate.
The findings showed that 97% of employees felt that an EAP would have a positive impact on their well-being and work performance. The majority said they would use counselling for themselves (71%) as well as for referring colleagues and subordinates (67%). The most prevalent problems (financial problems, retrenchment, retiring and HIV fears etc.) and least prevalent problems of employees are reported in the study as well as employees' preferences for various forms of EAP services. Finally recommendations are made regarding the design of an EAP for DWAF: Northern Province. / Social Work / M.A.(Socal Science)

Adding science to the mix of business and pleasure: an exploratory study of positive psychology interventions with teachers accessing employee assistance counsellingReinsch, Candace C. 10 January 2013 (has links)
This research project explores whether the delivery of positive psychology interventions in the workplace through an employee assistance program (EAP) can improve employees’ authentic happiness/flourishing as well as decrease symptoms of depression.
A small convenience sample of 13 Manitoba public school educators accessing employee assistance were recruited for a quasi-experimental research design. Nine participants were randomly assigned to the experimental group and the remaining participants assigned to the control. Experimental group members participated in a six session psychoeducational, experiential, and process-oriented positive psychotherapy group that met once a week over six weeks.
Experimental group participants’ scores on the authentic happiness/flourishing measure increased by a statistically significant 9% and depression scores decreased by a statistically significant 45% from pre-intervention to one month post-intervention. The study’s findings therefore provide promising confirmation that positive psychology interventions delivered through EAPs can make a meaningful difference as both secondary prevention and primary enhancement strategies in the workplace.
