Developing a measure of coping in high stress security occupations: a stress management model approach / Ontwikkeling van 'n maatstaf vir streshantering in stresvolle sekuriteitsberoepe: 'n stresbestuursmodel benadering / Ukwenza isu lokubhekana nesimo sengcindezi ephezulu kwimisebenzi yezokuphepha: indlela yemodeli yokubhekana nokuphatha ingcindezi

Schoeman, Petrus Gerhardus 03 1900 (has links)
Summaries in English, Afrikaans and Zulu / Orientation: Security personnel work in a high risk and consequently high stress environment. This may negatively affect their wellbeing. Owing to the high crime rate in South Africa, one of the continuous stressors security personnel experience might be fearing for their lives. If security personnel fail to use effective coping strategies they will remain stressed, and this may have a negative impact on them, and their organisation or community. Challenges such as work stress in the South African security industry have not been comprehensively researched or documented (Sibanyoni, 2014). Consequently, no South African questionnaire measuring coping with stress or a stress management model for dealing with stress in a security environment, could be found. Research purpose: The general aim of the research was to develop a valid and reliable coping questionnaire and stress management model for high stress security occupations. Research methodology: A questionnaire development process, as suggested by scientific literature, was followed. The process entailed (1) determining coping strategies by means of a literature review, (2) developing the coping questionnaire, (3) administering the questionnaire to the target population, and (4) statistical analysis. The stress management model was developed by combining the results of the confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and canonical correlation analysis (CCA). The development of the questionnaire was based on a sample of 381 active duty security personnel working in a high stress security environment in South Africa. Main findings: The study resulted in the development of a psychometrically sound 39-item questionnaire. The following 12 empirically validated healthy and unhealthy coping strategies were identified: (1) social support, (2) group cohesion, (3) physical exercise, (4) relaxation, (5) social media addiction, (6) healthy sleeping habits, (7) healthy diet, (8) training, (9) humour, (10) religion, (11) avoidance, and (12) denial. CFA confirmed both the construct and content validity, and composite reliability. The questionnaire was found to be invariant, and could thus be applied to different groups in high stress security occupations. A stress management model indicating the interrelationship between personality and coping was also developed. Contribution/value-add: The main contribution of this study was the development of a valid coping questionnaire and stress management model. By identifying the specific coping strategies, targeted stress management interventions could be developed. This could contribute to the overall wellness of security personnel working in high stress occupations, resulting in a healthy organisation and sound relationships with the community. Security organisations could also use the model during assessments to identify candidates with personality traits that would lead to healthier coping strategies, thereby selecting personnel that could better adapt to a security environment. / Oriëntasie: Sekuriteitspersoneel werk in ’n hoë risiko en gevolglik ’n stresvolle omgewing. Dit kan hulle welstand negatief beïnvloed. As gevolg van die hoë misdaadsyfer in Suid-Afrika kan een van die deurlopende stressors wat sekuriteitspersoneel ervaar ’n vrees vir hulle lewens wees. Indien sekuriteitspersoneel nie effektiewe streshantering strategieë gebruik nie, kan hulle voortdurend stres ervaar en dit kan ’n negatiewe impak op hulleself, hulle organisasie of gemeenskap hê. Uitdagings soos beroepstres in die Suid-Afrikaanse sekuriteitsindustrie is nog nie deeglik nagevors of gedokumenteer nie (Sibanyoni, 2014). Gevolglik kon daar vir die sekuriteitsomgewing geen Suid-Afrikaanse vraelys wat streshantering meet of ’n stresbestuursmodel gevind word nie. Doel van die navorsing: Die algemene doel van die navorsing was om vir stresvolle sekuriteitsberoepe ’n geldige en betroubare streshanteringsvraelys en stresbestuursmodel te ontwikkel. Navorsingsmetodologie: ’n Vraelys ontwikkelingsproses, soos deur wetenskaplike literatuur voorgestel, is gevolg. Die proses het die volgende behels: (1) die vasstel van die streshantering strategieë deur middel van ’n literatuuroorsig, (2) die ontwikkeling van die streshanteringsvraelys, (3) administrasie van die vraelys aan die teiken populasie en (4) statistiese analise. Die stresbestuursmodel is ontwikkel deur die resultate van die bevestigende faktoranalise (BFA) en die kanoniese korrelasie analise te kombineer. Die ontwikkeling van die vraelys is gebaseer op ’n steekproef van 381 aktiewe diens sekuriteitspersoneel wat in Suid-Afrika in ’n stresvolle sekuriteitsomgewing werk. Hoofbevindinge: Die studie het tot ’n psigometries betroubare 39-item vraelys gelei. Twaalf empiries gestaafde gesonde en ongesonde streshantering strategieë is geïdentifiseer naamlik: (1) sosiale ondersteuning, (2) groep kohesie, (3) fisiese oefening, (4) ontspanning, (5) sosiale media verslawing, (6) gesonde slaapgewoontes, (7) gesonde dieet, (8) opleiding, (9) humor, (10) godsdiens, (11) vermyding en (12) ontkenning. BFA het die konstruk- en inhoudsgeldigheid so wel as die saamgestelde betroubaarheid bevestig. Die vraelys is invariant en kan dus op verskillende groepe in hoë stres sekuriteitsberoepe toegepas word. ’n Stresbestuursmodel wat die verwantskap tussen persoonlikheid en streshantering aandui is ook ontwikkel. Bydrae/waardetoevoeging: Die belangrikste bydrae van hierdie studie was die ontwikkeling van ’n geldige streshanteringsvraelys en stresbestuursmodel. Deur die spesifieke streshantering strategieë te identifiseer kan gefokusde streshantering intervensies ontwikkel word. Dit kan tot die algehele welstand van sekuriteitspersoneel wat in stresvolle beroepe werk bydra en derhalwe ’n gesonde organisasie en goeie verhoudings met die gemeenskap. Sekuriteitsorganisasies kan ook tydens keurings die model gebruik om kandidate met persoonlikheidstrekke, wat tot gesonder streshantering strategieë sal lei, te identifiseer en dus personeel kies wat beter by ’n sekuriteitsomgewing sal aanpas. / Isimo somqondo: Abasebenzi bezokuphepha basebenza ezindaweni ezinobungozi obuphakeme nengcindezi ephakeme.

An evaluation of contract and in-house security : a South African case study

Gwara, Nyeperayi 03 1900 (has links)
The existence of security breaches in most spheres of modern society has caused loss of property and life. Some of these losses are so big that they eventually cripple organisations they affect. There is a need for private security within the South African context. Private security is executed through various security strategies. In most cases, companies operate with both contract and in-house security personnel on site. Regardless of the strategy adopted, companies continue to experience a variety of security risks. Therefore, swift transformation is needed in the security industry. To achieve this, appropriate security strategies will be necessary to overcome security risks. This study was directed by its aim and objectives. The aim was to evaluate contract and in-house security strategies in order to recommend the appropriate strategy to be used in security programmes. This aim was achieved through the sum of its outlined objectives. The first research objective was to establish the advantages and disadvantages of contract and in-house security. The second objective was to examine the effectiveness of contract and in-house security strategies, and the third to recommend appropriate security strategies to be used in security programmes. This study evaluated contract and in-house security in a registered security company located in Johannesburg, South Africa. A qualitative inquiry was implemented, and a case study approach was used to conduct the research study. The research study combines both literature and empirical research to reach its findings and make its recommendations. While there are 500 employees in the company, the sample was made up of 38 participants. A non-probability sampling method was adopted, and a purposive sampling method was used to select the participants. Furthermore, a face-to-face semi-structured interview schedule that included probing questions was used to collect data. The participants were targeted based on their knowledge and experience in issues surrounding management, policy, and security strategies. The sample consisted of 10 employees in the management category, 13 human resources employees and 15 security employees. The findings of this study were wide, but specific to the context in which it was researched. The advantages and disadvantages of contract and in-house security were comprehensively explored and narrated. This was done through a review of the literature and the raw data obtained from the research participants. The study determined the effectiveness of the two security strategies within the milieu of the case study under study. Furthermore, the study determined that there is no conclusive answer with regards to the most appropriate security strategy to be used. This chosen strategy is dependent on the specific security requirements. Once these requirements have been outlined, the specific strategy can be chosen, namely: contract security, in-house security or a hybrid approach. Recommendations are surplus to the findings of the study. The findings of a research study often go beyond the aim and objectives it set out to achieve. This study produced findings wider than the context of its predetermined aim and objectives and that are relevant to role players within the security industry. / Ukuba khona kwezenzo zokuphula amahlelo wezokuphepha emikhakheni eminengi yomphakathi wesimodeni sekubangele ukulahleka kwepahla nepilo. Ezinye zezehlakalo zalokhu kulahleka kwepahla ngendlela kukukhulu ngakho kuze kubulala neenhlangano ezithintekako. Kunesidingo sehlelo lezokuphepha langasese ngaphakathi kobujamo beSewula Afrika. Ihlelo lezokuphepha langasese/langeqadi Ihlelo lezokuphepha langeqadi lisetjenziswa ngamano ahlukeneko. Esikhathini esinengi, iinkampani zisebenza ngabasebenzi besivumelwano sesikhatjhana (contract) nabasebenzi bezokuphepha abahlaliswe esikhungweni esisodwa. Ngaphandle kokuqala amano amukelweko, iinkampani ziragela phambili nokuhlangabezana neengozi zokuphepha ezahlukahlukeneko. Yeke-ke, ihlelo elirhabileko lamatjhuguluko liyadingeka ebubulweni lezokuphepha. Ukuphumelela kilokhu, kuzokufuneka amano wezokuphepha afaneleko ukuze kuqedwe iingozi kezokuphepha. Leli rhubhululo belirholwa phambili mnqopho neenhloso zalo. Umnqopho kwakukuhlola ikontraga kanye namano wezokuphepha okwenziwa esikhungwini esisodwa ukuze kunconywe amano afaneleko okufanele asetjenziswemkumaphrogremu wezokuphepha. Lo mnqopho wafikelelwa ngeenhloso zoke zeminqopho zawo eyendlaliweko. Irhubhululo lokuthoma kwakukuhloma amathuba amahle kanye namathuba amambi wehlelo lezokuphepha eliyikontraga nelingaphakathi kwesikhungo. Umnqopho wesibili kwakukuhlolisisa ukusebenza kuhle kwamano wekontraga namano wezokuphepha ezisesikhungwini, kanti umnqopho wesithathu kuncoma amano afaneleko wezokuphepha ukobana asetjenziswe kumaphrogremu wezokuphepha. Leli rhubhululo lihlole ihlelo lezokuphepha lesivumelwano/sekontraga nelesikhungo kukhamphani yezokuphepha etlolisiweko enzinze eJohannesburg, eSewula Afrika. Iphenyisiso elidzimelele kukhwalithi lisetjenzisiwe ukwenza isifundo serhubhululo. Isifundo serhubhululo sihlanganisa yomibili imitlolo yobukghwari kanye nerhubhululo eliphathekako ukufikelela kulwazi belenze iincomo zalo. Njengombana kunabasebenzi abama-500 kukhamphani, isampuli yenziwa ngabadlalindima abama-38. Indlela yezampula i-non-probability sampling yalandelwa, kanti kusetjenziswe indlela yesampuli enehloso i-purposive sampling isetjenziselwe ukukhetha abadlalindima. Ngaphezu kwalokho, itjhejuli yehlolombono equntwe phakathi yokuqalana ubuso nobuso efaka imibuzo ephenyako isetjenziswe ukubuthelela idatha. Abadlalindima bebakhethwa ngokuqala ilwazi labo kanye nelwazi elimalungana neendaba zokuphatha, umthethomgomo kanye namano wezokuphepha. Isampuli beyinabasebenzi abali-10 esigabeni sezokuphatha, 13 yabasebenzi bomnyango wezokuqatjhwa kwabasebenzi kanye nabasebenzi abali-15 bezokuphepha. Ilwazi elitholakeleko laleli rhubhululo belinabile, kodwana linqophe ikakhulukazi ebujameni lapho irhubhululo lenziwa khona. Ubuhle nobumbi bamahlelo wezokuphepha wekontraga newesikhungwini ahlolisiswe begodu acocwa ngendlela enabileko. Lokhu kwenziwe ngokubuyekezwa komtlolo wobukghwari kanye nedatha ehlaza etholakele kubadlalindima berhubhululo. Irhubhululo liveze ukusebenza kuhle kwamano amabili wezokuphepha ngaphakathi kobujamo (milieu) besibonelorhubhululo (case study) ngaphasi kwesifundo serhubhululo.
