A proposta deste trabalho é de analisar o comprometimento organizacional dos funcionários de uma empresa metalúrgica de Caxias do sul. Esta empresa em análise é a Cemar Legrand empresa pertencente ao Grupo Legrand (Grupo Multinacional Francês). Foi utilizado para a análise um instrumento de pesquisa com reconhecimento pela comunidade científica chamado de modelo dos três componentes de Allen e Meyer (1997) , modelo que caracteriza o comprometimento organizacional em suas dimensões afetivo, instrumental e normativo, e foi aplicado o questionário em uma amostra de 311 funcionários da empresa. A análise deste trabalho também foi ampliada no sentido analisar este comprometimento organizacional por grupo de funcionários pertencentes às gerações (Geração Veteranos, Geração Baby boomers, Geração X e Geração Y), esta teoria das gerações, tem seu nascedouro na teoria geracional de Strauss e Howe (1991) onde os autores definem que em cada século há quatro gerações distintas e que cada uma das gerações comportam-se conforme as características de cada período geracional, bem como pelos acontecimentos de sua época. O resultado deste trabalho demonstra que há um bom comprometimento dos funcionários para com a empresa e não foi encontrado diferenças entre as dimensões do comprometimento para as gerações pesquisadas. / Submitted by Marcelo Teixeira (mvteixeira@ucs.br) on 2014-06-03T17:14:25Z No. of bitstreams: 1 Dissertacao Francisco H A Batista.pdf: 1507649 bytes, checksum: 9b3ef22087ae3901c216ccc051c879d9 (MD5) / Made available in DSpace on 2014-06-03T17:14:25Z (GMT).

The entry of young people into the labor market has presented a scenario of instability, dissatisfaction, and new behaviors in the procedures proposed by organizations that expect more commitment by the young employees. Currently, young people seek personal job satisfaction, self-realization, and recognition, which were less frequent behaviors in earlier generations (Twenge, 2010). The literature reports that these young people are creative, ambitious, and interested in people and groups (Tapscott, 2010). According to some authors, relational bonds (Eisner, 2005) and the role of leadership (Lipkin; Perrymore, 2009) have emerged as key factors for the stability of the young in the organization. This study aims to identify the perception of the young, digital generation on the support work offered by the organization. For that, the constructs of Perceived Organizational Support (POS) and Perceived Social Support (PSS) were studied. In this research a survey was used, replicating the questionnaires by Siqueira (2009). The study sample was composed of young, lower middle class, college students, who already work or have professional experience. The data collected in the survey were tabulated and processed by the PLS software. The Organizational Support construct was altered to identify variables that relate to the welfare of the employee, job satisfaction, the physical and environmental conditions of work, and the company's availability to assist the employee in case of need. The construct Social Support, the factor about the perception of the young regarding communication, was kept with just a small adjustment. The proposed changes in the organization of the Social Support construct suggest that respondents are less concerned about the factors that involve relationships with team members and the resources offered by companies for development of the work, and more concerned with information and communication. These areas are significant and valued factors by young people in their working environment. / No ambiente organizacional, as transformações decorrentes das mudanças sociais proporcionadas pelo acesso aos recursos da Tecnologia da Informação (TI) ocorrem nos processos de produção, na forma de trabalhar e na maneira de ver e interpretar o trabalho. Entretanto, o ingresso de jovens no mercado de trabalho tem apresentado um cenário de instabilidade, insatisfação e comportamentos novos frente aos procedimentos propostos pelas organizações, que esperam mais comprometimento por parte dos jovens empregados. Atualmente, os jovens buscam a satisfação pessoal no trabalho, autorrealização e o reconhecimento, comportamento menos frequente em gerações anteriores. (Twenge, 2010). A literatura informa que estes jovens são pessoas criativas, ambiciosas, interessadas pelas pessoas e pelos grupos (Tapscott, 2010). Segundo alguns autores, os vínculos relacionais (Eisner, 2005) e o papel da liderança (Lipkin; Perrymore, 2009) têm se mostrado fatores fundamentais para a estabilidade do jovem na organização. Este estudo tem por objetivo identificar a percepção do jovem da geração digital sobre o suporte ao trabalho oferecido pela organização. Para atingir esse objetivo, foram estudados os constructos de Percepção do Suporte Organizacional (PSO) e Percepção do Suporte Social (PSS). A pesquisa de campo utilizou uma pesquisa survey, replicando os questionários de Siqueira (2009). A população estudada foi composta por jovens estudantes universitários de classe média baixa, que já trabalham ou tiveram uma experiência profissional. Os dados levantados na pesquisa foram tabulados e processados por meio do software PLS - (Partial Least Square). Os resultados mostraram que o constructo Suporte Organizacional sofreu alteração e manteve variáveis que se relacionam ao bem estar do empregado, satisfação com o trabalho, condições físicas e ambientais de trabalho e disponibilidade da empresa em ajudar o empregado, em caso de necessidade. No constructo Suporte Social, foi mantido, quase sem alterações, o fator acerca da percepção do jovem sobre a comunicação. As alterações propostas na organização do constructo Suporte Social sugerem que os respondentes são pouco preocupados com os fatores que envolvem relacionamento com os integrantes da equipe e com os recursos ofertados pelas empresas para desenvolvimento dos trabalhos. A informação e a comunicação são fatores significativos e valorizados pelos jovens em seu ambiente de trabalho.

This profile was compared to that of employees belonging to other age groups in the same institution. To support research, was used bibliography about generational cuts - focusing on Generation Y - and different views on the subject of motivation, as well as debate the importance of knowing the motivational profile of these employees to adequate formulation of motivational labor strategies. Secondly, for this analysis the research seeks to aid in the psychological contract work theory. The Scale Values Schwartz (Schwartz Value Survey), in its PVQ - Portrait Value Questionnaire version, was used in collecting research data, aiming investigate most relevant motivational types for Y's and their cohorts, allowing so draw a motivational profile of each demographic group. Based on the collected sample, the study concludes there is no statistical evidence on the existence of differences in motivational profile between generations within the organization researched. / A presente dissertação investiga o perfil motivacional de empregados de uma grande instituição financeira brasileira, inseridos no corte demográfico designado de 'Geração Y' (Y’s). Tal perfil foi comparado ao de empregados pertencentes a outros grupos etários da mesma instituição. Para dar suporte à pesquisa, o referencial teórico analisa os cortes geracionais – com enfoque na Geração Y – e diferentes visões sobre o tema da motivação, bem como debate a importância do conhecimento do perfil motivacional desses empregados, para uma adequada formulação de estratégias de motivação laboral. Secundariamente, para essa análise a pesquisa busca auxílio na teoria do contrato psicológico de trabalho. Na coleta de dados da pesquisa foi utilizada a Escala de Valores de Schwartz (Schwartz Value Survey), em sua versão PVQ – Portrait Value Questionnaire, com o objetivo de prescrutar os tipos motivacionais mais relevantes dos Y’s e seus cohorts, permitindo-se, com isso, traçar um perfil motivacional de cada grupo demográfico. Com base na amostra coletada, o estudo conclui que não há evidência sobre a existência de diferenças no perfil motivacional, sob o ponto de vista estatístico, entre os cortes geracionais dentro da organização pesquisada.

The aim of the thesis 'Printed Books vs. eBooks: What, Why and How Does Generation Y Read?' is to uncover what motivates a group of young people, specifically twenty students attending universities based in Prague, to choose either printed or electronic books. Furthermore, while using the qualitative method of semi-structured interview it was also the aim of this thesis not only to describe and analyse how important are the social aspects of books as well as the ways of acquiring them, but similarly to get a better understanding of how Generation Y perceives books. For this reason the conducted research could be beneficial to an academic area of interest, while correspondingly valuable for publishers, bookshops or e-reader manufacturers and their marketing strategies. Practical research is built upon a relevant theoretical basis: history of reading, characterization of printed and electronic books, together with a Czech book market summary and an introduction of Generation Y. In addition, the fourth chapter presents methods used when conducting the research, particularly Grounded Theory. However, the results of this research and their interpretations are presented in the final chapter along with respondents' descriptions, research goals and the course of interviews. In conclusion, research limits...

Building an attractive workplace image, companies can attract and retain qualified employees. According to several research papers, some workers, especially young generation, prefer organizations with a prestigious employer brand and a positive social impact. The master thesis is focused on corporate social responsibility (CSR) as part of employer branding and its application within a human resource management system. The thesis is based on the assumption that the rising generation of workers considers socially responsible behaviour of companies as one of the factors of employer's attractiveness. The aim of the thesis is to analyze attitudes and preferences of selected representatives of generation Y regarding corporate social responsibility. The quantitative analysis is focused on the view on CSR by Charles University students of Faculty of Arts and employs an online questionnaire for data collection. Key words: employer branding, corporate social responsibility, CSR, stakeholder theory, employer's attractiveness, generation Y, HR marketing, HR activities

This diploma thesis provides an overview of current trends in firm culture of companies and their context. The theoretical part specifies the field of civil engineering, defines the concept of corporate culture and enriches it with existing approaches to management and determination of the form of corporate culture. The empirical part includes research that identifies changes in corporate culture related to the Y, Z generations on the labor market, and to what extent they meet the requirements of the corporate environment. The result of the thesis is evaluation, SWOT analysis of "millennials" and proposals for solutions.

The diploma thesis examines motivations and attitude of employees in terms of generation mixture. It focuses specifically on Generation Y, which is gradually becoming the main representation element of the generation mix in the workplace. The method com- bines the exploration of qualitative research (in-depth interview applying the techniques of neuro-linguistic programming) with quantitative (questionnaire construction). Based on the findings, with help of metaprogramming (MindSonar) framework, are identified elements of mindsets and values (metaprofiles) of employees of selected company. Then, there are described potentials of development of the company, that can lead to higher company performance.

In dieser Masterarbeit wird ein digitalisiertes Assistenzsystem, welches weniger erfahrenen Mitarbeitern hilft, Instandhaltungsaufgaben zu verrichten, in einer Laborumgebung implementiert. Aus theoretischen Vorbetrachtungen über den digitalen Wandel, welcher im Bereich der Instandhaltung feststellbar ist, wird die Untersuchungsfrage abgeleitet. Diese Masterarbeit setzt sich das Ziel, herauszufinden, wie Problemlösungprozesse von Instandhaltern mittels industrieller Assistenzsysteme unterstützt werden können. Dabei werden eine App (im Folgenden: Wartungsapp), eine Testumgebung sowie ein Kategoriensystem aufgebaut, um der Untersuchungsfrage nachgehen zu können. Ergebnisse aus einer Arbeitsbeobachtung von Testpersonen in Interaktion mit der Wartungsapp werden in Form von Transkripten und Prozessdarstellungen festgehalten. Die Interpretation der Ergebnisse zeigt auf, dass verschiedene Stellschrauben anzunehmen sind, die über Erfolg oder Misserfolg der kosten- und ressourcensparenden Implementierung eines industriellen Assistenzsystems für die Instandhaltung entscheiden können. Zusammenhänge über Schutzfunktionen, Menüführung und Gestaltung der Benutzeroberfläche werden anschließend erläutert und für eventuelle Folgeprojekte vorbereitet. / In this master thesis a digitalized assistance system, which helps less experienced employees to perform maintenance tasks, is implemented in a test environment. The research question is derived from theoretical considerations about a certain digital change that can be observed in the field of maintenance. This master thesis aims to find out how problem solving processes of maintenance personnel can be supported by industrial assistance systems. An app (in the following: maintenance app), a test environment and a category system are developed to answer the research question. Results from a work observation of test persons in interaction with the maintenance app are recorded in the form of transcripts and process representations. The interpretation of the results shows that there are several factors that can determine the success or failure of an industrial maintenance assistance system. Furthermore protective functions, menu navigation and design of the user interfaces are explained and prepared for possible follow-up projects.
