Exploring the relationship between career anchors, job satisfaction and organisational committment

Lumley, Elizabeth Jean 11 1900 (has links)
The primary objective of the study was to explore the relationship between career anchors, job satisfaction and organisational commitment using a sample of 86 employees at four Information Technology companies in South Africa. A secondary objective was to determine whether individuals from various gender, race, position and age groups differed significantly regarding their career anchors, job satisfaction and organisational commitment. The instruments used were the Career Orientations Inventory (COI), Job Satisfaction Survey (JSS) and Organisational Commitment Questionnaire (OCQ). The research findings indicated that career anchors are partially related to participants’ job satisfaction and organisational commitment and participants’ levels of job satisfaction and organisational commitment are significantly related. The findings also showed that demographic groups differ significantly regarding their career anchors, job satisfaction and organisational commitment. It is recommended that interventions aimed at improving individual career decision making and organisational retention practices take cognisance of how these variables relate to individuals’ career anchors, job satisfaction and organisational commitment. The study is concluded with recommendations for Industrial and Organisational Psychology practices and further research.

A relação de classe econômica e aspectos do contexto social com modelos de carreira de jovens entrantes no mercado de trabalho / Not informed by the author

Viviane Ventura Gaspar da Silva 06 September 2017 (has links)
Nas últimas décadas, novas demandas e ideologias sobre a relação homem-trabalho transformaram os sentidos atribuídos ao trabalho e as formas de concebê-lo. Essas transformações redefinem o lugar desta importante atividade na sociedade e trazem a necessidade do reposicionamento do conceito de carreira e do desenvolvimento de teorias que discutem o papel do trabalhador nesse cenário. É possível identificar uma mudança no posicionamento atribuído ao trabalhador, de uma postura passiva para uma postura de agente. As críticas quanto à hegemonia dos modelos emergentes de carreira são direcionadas, de forma mais emblemática, ao papel atribuído ao indivíduo como agente de sua carreira considerando que o exercício da autonomia e da mobilidade é possível ou favorecido por suas habilidades, formações e qualificações. Em suma, esses modelos parecem desconsiderar que outros fatores como classe social, gênero e etnia podem ser limitadores desse papel de agente do indivíduo sobre sua carreira e marginaliza minorias, como mulheres, desempregados ou trabalhadores com pouca qualificação. Entre as questões que se abrigam neste hiato entre o discurso hegemônico sobre carreira e as críticas teóricas e empíricas sobre esses modelos, chama a atenção a relação entre a compreensão de carreira do indivíduo e o papel atribuído ao trabalhador com o processo de socialização, que forja a compreensão de mundo e de si mesmo. A presente dissertação tem como objetivo a investigação da relação de classe econômica e aspectos do contexto social com modelos de carreira de entrantes no mercado de trabalho. O estudo é empírico, de abordagem de dado de diferença qualitativa e frequência (quantitativa) e o procedimento técnico é por levantamento. A coleta de dados foi realizada através de uma survey eletrônica que teve como base o Critério Brasil para classificação econômica, um questionário sobre práticas culturais e o TST para identificação e análise dos modelos de carreira. A população estudada é não probabilística e intencional e formada por 150 jovens. A análise estatística descritiva foi realizada através de medidas resumo usuais, tais como média e desvio padrão (DP), mediana e mínimo (mín) e máximo (máx) para variáveis quantitativas e frequência absoluta e relativa para as variáveis categóricas. Na análise bivariada, foram utilizado o teste de Anderson-Darling (Anderson e Darling, 1954) e testes paramétricos (teste t, ANOVA e correlação de Pearson) e testes não paramétricos (Mann-Witney, Levene, Kruskal-Wallis, Tukey não paramétrico e correlação de Spearman). Para analisar o escore de carreira versus as variáveis socioeconômicas conjuntamente foi utilizado um modelo de regressão linear múltipla. O software utilizado para análises foi o R 3.1.2. e o nível de significância adotado nas análises foi de 0,05. Os resultados obtidos não apresentaram correlação significativa para classe econômica e modelos de carreira, apesar de ter uma tendência aos modelos tradicionais nas classes B e C. Também não foi identificada correlação para a maioria das variáveis quantitativas e qualitativas, exceto para as variáveis: estado civil - casado, cor preta e programa favorito - novela que se mostraram significativas estatisticamente para o modelo emergente de carreira e a variável, principal motivo para acessar a internet - enviar e-mails, significativa para o modelo tradicional. Identificando-se a necessidade de aprofundamento e o vasto espaço de pesquisa aqui demonstrado, espera-se que esse estudo sirva como convite aos pesquisadores para desenvolverem novos estudos empíricos sobre socialização e carreira, em geral, e carreira e seus impactos sobre gestão de pessoas nas organizações brasileiras / In the last decades, new demands and ideologies about the relationship between man and work are transforming the meanings attributed to work and the ways of conceiving it. These transformations redefine the place work takes in society and bring about the need to reposition the concept of career and the development of theories that discuss the role of the worker in this scenario. It is possible to identify a change in the positioning attributed to the worker, from a passive posture to an agent position. Criticisms about the hegemony of emerging career models are directed more emblematically to the role assigned to the individual as an agent of his career - considering that the exercise of autonomy and mobility is possible or favored by his skills, education and qualifications. In sum, these models seem to disregard the fact that other factors such as social class, gender and ethnicity could limit this role of the individual as agent over his career and marginalize minorities such as women, the unemployed or the low-skilled workers. Among the issues that lie in the hiatus of hegemonic career discourse and the theoretical and empirical critiques of these models, attention is drawn to the relationship between an individual\'s career understanding and the role assigned to the worker with the socialization process, which forges the understanding of the world and of himself. The present dissertation aims to investigate the relationship of economic class and aspects of the social context with the career models of entrants in the job market. This study is empirical, approaching data of qualitative difference and frequency (quantitative) and the technical procedure is by survey. The data were obtained through an electronic survey based on Critério Brasil for economic classification, a questionnaire on cultural practices and the TST for the identification and analysis of career models. The population studied is non-probabilistic and intentional and consists of 150 young adults. The descriptive statistical analysis was performed using usual summary measures, such as mean and standard deviation (SD), median and minimum (min) and maximum (max) for quantitative variables and absolute and relative frequency for categorical variables. In the bivariate analysis, the Anderson-Darling test (Anderson and Darling, 1954) and parametric tests (t test, ANOVA and Pearson\'s correlation) and non-parametric tests were used (Mann-Witney, Levene, Kruskal-Wallis, Tukey non-parametric And Spearman\'s correlation). To analyze the career score versus the socioeconomic variables together a multiple linear regression model was used. The software used for analysis was R 3.1.2. And the level of significance adopted in the analyzes was 0.05. The results obtained did not present a significant correlation for economic class and career models, despite tending to the traditional models in classes B and C. Also, no correlation was identified for most of the quantitative and qualitative variables, except for the variables: civil status - married, black and favorite program soap opera that proved statistically significant for the emerging career model and the variable, the main reason for accessing the Internet - send emails, meaningful to the traditional model. Identifying the need for deepening and the vast space for research demonstrated here, it is expected that this study will serve as an invitation to researchers to develop new empirical studies on socialization and career, in general, and career and its impacts on people management in the organizations

Contribuições acerca da orientação profissional e de carreira com adultos: o caso de pessoas com trajetórias de trabalho precário / Contributions on career counseling for adults: the case of people with precarious work trajectories

Guilherme de Oliveira Silva Fonçatti 08 April 2016 (has links)
A presente dissertação tem como questão de pesquisa a descrição e análise das características do processo de orientação profissional e de carreira voltada a pessoas adultas com escolaridade até o Ensino Médio completo e com alguma trajetória no mundo do trabalho marcada pela precarização. Para isso, foi feito um estudo do contexto socioeconômico brasileiro no período que compreende os primeiros quinze anos do presente século. Como suporte teórico para a pesquisa foi realizado um estudo sobre os conceitos de carreira, trabalho, emprego/desemprego e trajetória, articulando-os com o contexto brasileiro do mundo do trabalho. Identificou-se uma demanda reprimida que começa a se explicitar, na busca dessa população pelo atendimento em orientação profissional e de carreira. Foi realizado um levantamento bibliográfico sobre o tema da orientação profissional e de carreira com populações marginalizadas ou em condição de vulnerabilidade social, no âmbito nacional e internacional. Concluiu-se que há pouca produção bibliográfica sobre orientação profissional para adultos em situação de trabalho precário. Os participantes dessa pesquisa são adultos, trabalhadores que cursaram até o Ensino Médio, com histórico de inserção no trabalho pela informalidade, ou por vias formais, mas em trabalhos precários e considerados de restrito prestígio social. Esses trabalhadores buscaram voluntariamente o Serviço de Orientação Profissional (SOP) do Instituto de Psicologia da Universidade de São Paulo. Foram relatados dois atendimentos de orientação profissional e de carreira, sendo um homem de 36 anos e uma mulher de 47 anos. Como resultados da análise dos atendimentos, percebeu-se como produto da orientação: apropriação da trajetória profissional como uma carreira, a partir da ressiginificação da história profissional; percepção de si como um trabalhador qualificado em diversas áreas, apropriação do seu fazer pela identificação de si mesmo como o alguém que o faz, maior possibilidade controle e autonomia do fazer; apropriação da percepção do próprio desejo para além da necessidade; apropriação de um projeto de carreira, a partir da significação do processo de orientação profissional; o projeto como articulador do futuro: aberto, porém não solto. Conclui-se que o trabalho de orientação de carreira com esse público é possível e pode resultar na construção de um projeto de carreira apropriado pela pessoa em seu contexto social / This is a thesis about the research on the characteristics of the career counseling process of adults who have studied up to complete high school degree, and who have a work trajectory marked by precarious works. For this, we made a study of the Brazilian socioeconomic context of the period comprising the first fifteen years of this century. As a theoretical support for the research we studied the concepts of career, work, employment/unemployment and trajectory, connecting them with the Brazilian work context. In this scenario, there is a repressed demand that begins to emerge, as this population starts to look for career counseling process. A bibliographic research was made on the topic of the career counseling process for marginalized or social vulnerable populations, including national and international papers. It was concluded that there is little bibliographical production on career counseling process for adults in precarious work situation. The participants of this research were adult workers who had not completed high school and have a work trajectory marked by informal and formal works that are precarious or are considered with low social prestige. These workers voluntarily sought the Serviço de Orientação Profissional (SOP) of the Instituto de Psicologia at Universidade de São Paulo (USP). In this thesis two career counseling process are reported, one of them of a 36-year-old man and the other one of a 47-year-old woman. As results, it was perceived as a product of the career counseling process the following points: appropriation of work trajectory; greater awareness of oneself as a qualified worker in various areas; greater control and autonomy in the performed professional activity; resignificance and appropriation of the professional career; stronger consolidation of occupational identity; the capacity of develop his/her own career project; and the concept of project as an articulator of future and present. In conclusion, we found that the career counseling process can be done with this population and results in a career project lined up with the person in his social context

Gestão de carreira no início da carreira profissional: um estudo sobre atitude de carreira de jovens discentes da graduação da FEA/USP / Career management at the beginning of the professional career: a study on the career attitude of students from FEA/USP

Irineu Soares de Camargo 18 November 2016 (has links)
Os estudos sobre gestão de carreira, quer sejam no âmbito organizacional ou individual, são algo recente na literatura. Atualmente, entende-se que a responsabilidade pela gestão da carreira é das pessoas e que a sua consolidação ocorre ao longo das experiências de vida pessoal e profissional. Com as mudanças originadas pela globalização, novas tecnologias e aumento da competitividade, o contrato psicológico de trabalho migrou de um modelo de emprego vitalício para um modelo de independência e autonomia, onde o indivíduo é responsável pela gestão e desenvolvimento de sua própria carreira. Essas mudanças influenciaram os conceito de carreira e demandaram o desenvolvimento de teorias que considerassem aspectos relacionados à mobilidade, à busca de um sentido para o trabalho e ao sucesso psicológico, tais como a carreira sem fronteiras e a carreira proteana. Considerando a escassez e a necessidade de estudos empíricos no Brasil acerca do tema, o presente trabalho teve como principal objetivo identificar e analisar se a atitude de carreira de universitários tem relação com as novas teorias de carreira. O perfil de carreira agrupa os indivíduos de acordo com a presença de atitudes de carreira proteana, representada pelas dimensões autodirecionamento e orientação pelos valores, e de atitudes de carreira sem fronteiras, representada pelas dimensões mobilidade psicológica e mobilidade física. Esta é uma pesquisa descritiva, com características quantitativa e qualitativa. A coleta de dados foi realizada através da aplicação de um questionário, cujas escalas foram validadas nos Estados Unidos e no Brasil, bem como pela realização de entrevistas. A amostra é não probabilística e intencional e foi formada por 140 estudantes de graduação da Faculdade de Administração, Economia e Contabilidade da USP. A validação da escala de atitude de carreira foi feita a partir da análise da confiabilidade e consistência interna do instrumento de pesquisa, com base no software SPSS - Statistical Package for the Social Sciences. Os resultados obtidos através da técnica de análise fatorial foram satisfatórios no que tange à confiabilidade, utilizado o software SPSS. Com base nos dados estatísticos, os escores gerais de carreiras proteana e sem fronteiras apresentaram uma relação positiva, indicando a existência de uma correlação geral entre os dois modelos de carreira para a amostra deste estudo. Os resultados desta pesquisa, no geral, apontam a presença de direcionamento pelos valores, autodirecionamento da carreira, mobilidades física e psicológica, indicando que os respondentes apresentam atitudes de carreiras favoráveis para enfrentar as mudanças exigidas pelo mercado de trabalho. Estas atitudes são mais relevantes para os que fizeram a disciplina Gestão de Carreira, o que também foi confirmado pelas entrevistas. Com isso, conclui-se ser relevante discutir a gestão de carreira no início da carreira profissional desses jovens discentes, que estão entrando no mercado de trabalho. Para esses jovens, essas novas carreiras são uma realidade, ainda que se verifique se tratar de um movimento, não podendo ser ainda considerado como fato para todos os indivíduos pesquisados. Acompanhar a trajetória profissional desses alunos, ampliando a pesquisa com outras variáveis, agregará ao estudo um maior detalhamento sobre as inclinações de carreiras desses indivíduos. Ainda, as discussões deste trabalho, além de contribuírem para as reflexões acerca do assunto gestão de carreira no Brasil, abrem portas para pesquisas com egressos que estejam no mercado de trabalho há mais tempo, ampliando a discussão dos resultados de correlação entre os modelos de carreira proteana e sem fronteiras. / Studies on career management, whether organizational or individual, are something new in literature. Currently, it is understood that the responsibility for the career management is of the person and that its consolidation takes place over the experiences of personal and professional life. With the changes arising from globalization, new technologies and increased competition, the work\'s psychological contract migrated from a lifetime employment model to an independence and autonomy model, where the individual is responsible for the management and development of his own career. These changes influenced the concept of career and demanded the development of theories that consider aspects related to mobility, the search of a meaning to work and psychological success, such as boundaryless career and protean career. Considering the scarcity and the need for empirical studies in Brazil on the subject, this study aimed to identify and analyze if the career atitude of university students is related to the new career theories. The career profile groups the individuals according to the presence of protean career attitudes, represented by self-direction dimensions and values orientation, and attitudes of a boundaryless career, represented by the dimensions of psychological mobility and physical mobility. This is a descriptive research with quantitative and qualitative characteristics. Data collection was performed by applying a questionnaire, whose scales were validated in the United States and Brazil, as well as conducting interviews. The sample is not probabilistic and intentional and was formed by 140 undergraduate students of USP\'s School of Business, Economics and Accounting. The validation of the career attitude scale was made by the analysis of reliability and internal consistency of the survey instrument based on SPSS - Statistical Package for Social Sciences. The results obtained through the factorial analysis technique were satisfactory in terms of reliability, using the SPSS software. Based on statistics, the overall scoresof protean careers and boundaryless career presented a positive relation, indicating the existence of a general correlation between the two career models for this study\'s sample. Theresults of this research, in general, indicate the presence of targeting by values, career selfdirection, physical and psychological mobility, indicating that respondents have career attitudes favorable to face the changes required by the labor market. These attitudes are more relevant to those who made the Career Management discipline, which was also confirmed by interviews. Thereby, it is concluded to be relevant to discuss career management at the beginning of the career of these young students, who are entering the labor market. For these young people, these new careers are a reality, even if it is verified to be a movement, and can not be considered as a fact for all individuals surveyed. Follow the career path of these students, expanding research with other variables, will add to the study greater details on the slopes careers of these individuals. The discussions of this work, besides contributing to the reflections on the career management business in Brazil, opens doors for research with graduates who are in the labor market longer, expanding the discussion of correlation results between protean and boundaryless career models.

Avaliação da orientação profissional em grupo: o papel da informação no desenvolvimento da maturidade para a escolha da carreira / Evaluation of group Vocational Guidance: the role of information for the development of maturity to choose a career.

Marystella Carvalho Esbrogeo 31 July 2008 (has links)
Este estudo objetiva avaliar um procedimento de intervenção desenvolvido com adolescentes, em processo de Orientação Profissional, em função das variáveis: (1) informação profissional, (2) maturidade para a escolha da carreira e (3) comunicação e aprendizagem no grupo. Participaram do estudo, 28 adolescentes, de ambos os sexos, provenientes de escolas de Ensino Médio e cursos pré-vestibulares, públicos e/ ou privados, com idade entre 15 e 19 anos, em atendimento no Serviço de Orientação Profissional da FFCLRP/USP. Para fins da intervenção e da obtenção dos dados, os jovens foram distribuídos em dois grupos, conforme maturidade para a escolha da carreira avaliada abaixo da média (Grupo A, n= 17) e acima da média (Grupo B, n= 11). Os instrumentos utilizados foram: (1) Questionário de Informação Profissional (QIP): O que os adolescentes sabem sobre profissões e carreiras?; (2) Escala de Maturidade para a Escolha Profissional (EMEP), de Neiva e os (3) registros das sessões em grupo operativo. Os referenciais teórico-metodológicos que fundamentam o procedimento de intervenção e subsidiam a análise dos dados são: (1) a estratégia clínica de Bohoslavsky, (2) a abordagem de grupo operativo de Pichon-Rivière e (3) a Teoria Desenvolvimentista da escolha de carreira de Super. Os dados obtidos por meio do QIP (perguntas fechadas) foram tratados e analisados pela estatística descritiva. Comparações pré e pós-intervenção foram realizadas, por meio do Teste não-paramétrico de Wilcoxon e o Teste do X² de McNemar. Outra comparação foi realizada entre as respostas dos participantes do sexo feminino e do masculino, utilizado o Teste exato de Fisher e o Teste não-paramétrico de Mann-Whitney. As respostas registradas nas perguntas abertas e nos comentários foram analisadas segundo Bardin. Os dados obtidos por meio da Escala de Maturidade para Escolha Profissional (EMEP) foram analisados quantitativamente por meio do Teste de Wilcoxon. E a análise qualitativa do processo grupal foi realizada a partir da síntese dos registros dos grupos operativos, focalizando os vetores de avaliação do Cone Invertido: comunicação e aprendizagem. Os resultados mostram que os participantes não estão bem informados e, que a informação profissional pode ajudá-los na tomada de decisão vocacional. A internet é o recurso mais utilizado pelos adolescentes para a comunicação entre os colegas. As moças, no início do grupo de orientação, buscam mais informações profissionais nos guias e nos livros do que os rapazes. Elas, também, utilizam mais a internet para as pesquisas escolares, enquanto que os rapazes a utilizam mais para jogar. Nos resultados da EMEP, o grupo apresentou diferença significativa com valores superiores na segunda nas sub-escalas: Determinação, Autoconhecimento e Maturidade Total. Ao final do processo de Orientação Profissional em grupo foi observado que os adolescentes estavam buscando mais informações profissionais, e que o grupo favoreceu a comunicação e a aprendizagem para o desenvolvimento da maturidade para a escolha de carreira. / This study aims at evaluating an intervention an intervention procedure done with adolescents, in Professional Guidance, according to the following variables: (1) professional information, (2) maturity to choose a career, and (3) group communication and group learning. The subjects were 28 adolescents, of both sexes, coming from public and private high schools and university preparation courses, aged between 15 and 19 who were attended at the Vocational Guidance Service at the Faculty of Philosophy, Sciences and Letters at Ribeirão Preto, University of São Paulo (FFCLRP/ USP). The participants were divided into two groups according to maturity: below average (group A, n=17) and above average (group B, n=11). The instruments used to gather the data were: (1) Questionnaire about Professional Information (QIP): What adolescents know about jobs and occupations?; (2) Maturity for Career Choice Scale (MCCS); (3) recordings of group sessions. The theoretical-methodological frame works that underpinned the intervention procedure and its analysis were: (1) Bohoslavskys clinical strategy, (2) Pichon-Rivières Operative Group approach and (3) Supers Development Theory for career choice. The data gathered by means of the QIP (closed questions) were treated and analyzed by descriptive statistics. Comparisons before and after interventions were done by means of the Wilcoxons non-parametric Test and McNemars X² Test. Another comparison was done between the answers of the male and female participants by means of the Fishers Exact Test and Mann-Whitneys non-parametric Test. The open answers were analyzed by Bardin. The data gathered by means of the MCCS were analyzed quantitatively by means of Wilcoxons Test. And the analysis of the group procedures was done as based on the synthesis of the group recordings, focusing the evaluation vectors of the Inverted Cone: communication and the learning process. The results showed that the participants were not well informed about career choice and that career information could help them to make a career decision. And the internet is the resource more frequently used by adolescents to communicate with pals. At the beginning of the guiding process, the girls looked for career information in books and guides more than the boys did. The girls also went on the internet to do research and schools take, whereas the boys used it to play. The results from MCCS showed a significant difference for the second application, the values being higher than the first for the following sub-scales: Determination, Self-knowledge and Total Maturity. At the end of the Vocational guiding procedure, the group showed to be looking for more career information than at the beginning and favored communication and learning to mature and to choose a career.

Möjligheten till intern karriär : En faktor som påverkar och motiverar valet att stanna i organisationen / The ability to internal career : A factor that affects and motivatives the choice to stay in the organization

Nordström, Lydia January 2017 (has links)
Career is something that today no only appears when an employee moves from one organization to another but can also appear within an organization. This can allow the employee to develop without changing workplace and the organization can maintain the qualification in the organization and reduce the turnover. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate how employees perceive that the possibility of internal careers influences and motivates them in the election to stay within their current organization. The study is conducted in a public administration, at the municipal level. 20 respondents have participated through qualitative mail interviews. The result of the study showed that all respondents would consider leaving their current employer if they did not get the opportunity to an internal career. It was also found that other factors affected and motivated the employees to stay within the current organization, while the factor salary was what respondents generally thought was least important for the choice to stay or leave their current organization. This demonstrates that it is important for employers in the public sector, to be aware of and ensure what is required to not lose their employees and the qualification they possess. For future research, it would be interesting to study if this is a "small town phenomenon" or if the result would be the same in a larger city. The survey has been conducted in a municipality with a population of approximately 40,000. / Karriär är idag något som inte bara sker genom att en medarbetare går från en organisation till en annan utan kan även ske inom en organisation. Detta kan göra att medarbetaren får möjlighet att utvecklas utan att byta arbetsplats och organisationen kan behålla sin kompetens i företaget och minska personalomsättningen. Därför är avsikten med denna studie att undersöka hur anställda upplever att möjligheten till intern karriär påverkar och motiverar dem i valet att stanna inom sin nuvarande organisation. Studien är genomförd i en offentlig förvaltning, på kommunnivå. 20 respondenter har deltagit genom en kvalitativ mailintervju. Resultatet av studien visade att samtliga respondenter skulle överväga att lämna sin nuvarande arbetsgivare om de inte fick möjligheten till intern karriär. Det visade sig även att andra faktorer påverkade och motiverade de anställda att stanna inom den nuvarande organisationen, medan faktorn lön var det som majoriteten av respondenterna ansåg var minst viktigt för valet att stanna eller lämna sin nuvarande organisation. Studiens resultat visar att det ät viktigt för arbetsgivare inom offentlig förvaltning att vara medvetna om och se till vad som krävs för att inte förlora sina anställda och den kompetens de besitter. För framtida forskning skulle det vara intressant att undersöka om detta är ett “småstadsfenomen” eller om resultatet skulle bli detsamma i en större stad och kommun, då studien är genomförd i en kommun med cirka 40 000 invånare.

The perception of women regarding career barriers within a municipality in the KwaZulu-Natal region

Hlophe, Duduzile Rosemary January 2014 (has links)
Magister Commercii (Industrial Psychology) - MCom(IPS) / The aim of this research study was to assess the existence and impact of career barriers on women in a municipal environment and to understand whether career salience explains some of the differences in the perception of career barriers. To answer the research hypothesis, permission was obtained from the municipal management to embark on the study and the respondents were notified in writing of the purpose and benefits of the study. A cross-sectional, convenience sample of 89 female employees in post levels one to ten was used. The survey questionnaire consisted of a demographical questionnaire, The Career Barriers Inventory-Revised (CBI-R) (Swanson, Daniels & Tokar, 1996) and a career salience scale. The statistical analyses included descriptive, inferential statistics and analysis of variance. The data was also subjected to a Scheffe’s test to determine the differences in perceptions. The results (N = 89) of this study do not support the hypothesis that there is a significant difference between age and women’s experiences of sex discrimination as a career barrier. The first and second hypothesis, which meant to prove a significant relationship between career salience and career barriers and a significant difference in women’s perceptions of career barriers based on their career salience, was partially accepted

“Om du kämpar, du får resultat. Om du sover, du också får resultat, men resultat är skillnad.” : En kvalitativ studie om flyktingars etablering på arbetsmarknaden

Sjöstrand, Elisabet, Ojanen, Moa January 2020 (has links)
Denna studie undersöker nyanlända flyktingars väg till arbete i Sverige och vad som bidragit till en snabb etablering på arbetsmarknaden. Genom åtta kvalitativa intervjuer samlades empirin in. Datainsamlingen analyserades utifrån Social cognitive career theory av Lent, Brown & Hackett, som belyser individernas karriärprocesser och vad som påverkar och driver dessa. Studiens viktigaste resultat är att nyanlända flyktingars etablering på arbetsmarknaden påverkas positivt av interna resurser, inställningar och förhållningssätt, som uthållighet, anpassningsförmåga och en kämpar-anda. Vidare visar resultatet att individer agerar utifrån egna målsättningar, som har bäring på karriärmål och mål för livsvillkor. Ytterligare resultat visar att externt stöd, som praktikplatser, och mellanmänskligt stöd, som sociala nätverk, främjar etableringsprocessen på arbetsmarknaden. / This study examines newly arrived refugees' way to work in Sweden and what has contributed to a rapid establishment in the labor market. Through eight qualitative interviews, the empiricism was collected. The data collection was analyzed based on Social cognitive career theory by Lent, Brown & Hackett, which illustrates the individual's career processes and what influences and drives the process. The study's most important result is that newly arrived refugees' establishment in the labor market is positively affected by internal resources, attitudes and approaches, such as endurance, adaptability and a fighting spirit. Furthermore, the results show that individuals act on the basis of their own goals, which have bearing on career goals and goals for living conditions. Further results show that external support, such as internships, and interpersonal support, such as social networking, promote the establishment process in the labor market.

Life design counselling with a learner from a vocational school setting

Ruiters, Samantha-Ella January 2021 (has links)
Worldwide, the estimated prevalence of intellectual disability in developed countries is between 2% and 3% (Foskett, 2014). As a developing country, the South African Government show signs of taking the necessary steps in including persons with disabilities in the general workforce (Department of Social Development of the Republic of South Africa, 2015). Forthrightly, post school options for learners from special schools are limited (DSD, DWCPD & Unicef, 2012) and, historically, they have been encouraged to pursue work encompassing basic skills, with little or no autonomy – and denied opportunities in the formal sector. The study aims to explore the value of implementing life design counselling as a means to educate and prepare learners from the vocational school setting (learners with intellectual/mental disability) for opportunities after the completion of their formal schooling; and encourage debate around the training of the relevant role players. Moreover, to counter the adverse thinking the learners – and teachers and parents – may be participating in. Through the comparison of the value the learners ascribe to their current career guidance/counselling and when supplementing life design counselling to the already implemented model; the learners are introduced to innovative/novel options and guided through the process with support. The quantitative findings of the study did not confirm nor refute the assumption of the intervention resulting in an increased career adaptability for the participant. Even so, the qualitative findings supported the aims of the intervention. The participant was able to, and expressed wanting to continue to, construct his concept of self within his systems of functioning, while also actively pursuing his vocational choices and the means to attaining them. Overall, the researcher found the life-design approach used in the study highly applicable to the participant and the context in which the study was conducted. The possibilities and limitations from this study could promote further research in the vocational schooling sector, equipping the role players to better service the demarcated category of learners (learners with intellectual disability). / Mini Dissertation (MEd (Educational Psychology))--University of Pretoria, 2021. / Educational Psychology / MEd (Educational Psychology) / Unrestricted
