Abstract(s)
Este estudo procura explorar o papel mediador do compromisso organizacional na relação entre o desenho do trabalho e o bem-estar no trabalho no contexto do Setor Público Português. Nesta pesquisa, foram desenvolvidas três hipóteses:(H1) O Compromisso Organizacional medeia a relação entre as Características da Função e o Bem-Estar no Trabalho; (H2) O Compromisso Organizacional está positivamente associado ao Bem-Estar no Trabalho; (H3) O Compromisso Organizacional está positivamente associado às Características da Função. Foi realizada uma pesquisa quantitativa com uma amostra de 70 trabalhadores de consulados e embaixadas do setor público português. Os dados foram obtidos a partir de um questionário online e processados em CFA, análise de confiabilidade e análises de mediação. Os resultados são consistentes com a possibilidade de o compromisso organizacional ser um forte mediador parcial do job design e do bem-estar no trabalho, sugerindo que o apego psicológico dos funcionários a uma organização é crítico para alcançar efeitos positivos ótimos das características do trabalho. Além disso, todas as dimensões do compromisso organizacional (afetivo, normativo e contínuo) foram significativas, com maior foco no compromisso normativo no setor público. Este estudo sugere que um design de trabalho positivo, em termos de autonomia, variedade e feedback, relaciona-se não apenas diretamente com o bem-estar, mas também indiretamente, por meio do compromisso organizacional. Esses resultados apoiam políticas de gestão de recursos humanos para aumentar a moral e o enriquecimento do trabalho, compromissos afetivos e normativos dos funcionários com as instituições públicas, o que cria um ambiente de trabalho mais saudável, recompensador e eficiente.
This study seeks to explore the mediating role of Organizational Commitment in the relationship between Job Design and Well-being at Work within the context of the Portuguese Public Sector. Three hypotheses were developed for this research: (H1) Organizational Commitment mediates the relationship between Job Characteristics and Well-being at Work; (H2) Organizational Commitment is positively associated with Well-being at Work; (H3) Organizational Commitment is positively associated with Job Characteristics. A quantitative survey was conducted with a sample of 70 workers from consulates and embassies within the Portuguese public sector. Data were obtained from an online questionnaire and processed using CFA, reliability analysis, and mediation analyses. The results are consistent with the possibility of Organizational Commitment being a strong partial mediator between Job Design and Well-being at Work, suggesting that the employees' psychological attachment to an organization is critical to achieving optimal positive effects from job characteristics. Furthermore, all dimensions of organizational commitment (affective, normative, and continuance) were found to be significant, with a greater focus on normative commitment in the public sector. This study suggests that a positive job design, in terms of autonomy, variety, and feedback, relates not only directly to well-being but also indirectly, through organizational commitment. These findings support Human Resource Management policies aimed at boosting morale and job enrichment, as well as strengthening the affective and normative commitments of employees to public institutions, which ultimately creates a healthier, more rewarding, and efficient work environment.
