Full textAs organizations become increasingly complex, research into the sources and effects of employee stress is increasingly warranted. The present study examined the relationship between personal life stress, work stress, and job performance. In addition, the role of conscientiousness as a possible moderating variable was analyzed. Several studies regarding the relationship between stress and work performance were reviewed. In the present study, participants completed measures of life stress, job stress, and personality. Supervisors rated the job performance of participants. A significant relationship was found between personal life stress and job stress such that each type of stress was higher when the other was present. Neither personal life stress nor job stress were related to job performance. Conscientiousness was not found to moderate the stress-job performance relationships. Implications of the study and future directions are explored.
Quigley, Jennifer. "Let's work| Employment experiences of adults with developmental disabilities." Thesis, California State University, Long Beach, 2014. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=1569589.
Full textThe present study investigated the employment experiences of adults with mild developmental disabilities. The study's sample consisted of 45 participants with developmental disabilities who were over the age of 18. Participants were recruited from two Regional Centers in Southern California and either phone interviews or in-person interviews were conducted.
A structured interview protocol examined each participant's current work experience, along with several items exploring facilitators and obstacles to employment. Data from this qualitative investigation were organized into categories using inductive content analysis. Descriptive statistics were computed for quantitative items. Overall, it was discovered that: participants found money as the most rewarding aspect of employment, relied on outside support in obtaining and maintaining employment and found few obstacles of which to overcome, worked with others with developmental disabilities, and utilized workplace supports in entry level positions making an average wage of $8.92 a hour during a 20.72 hour work week.

Full textHuman service workers have a history of working with our neediest populations, and their work often entails long hours, challenging situations, and limited resources. When the focus of the work is on human strengths and positive approaches, more positive results emerge. In order to determine the process of how human services workers maintain a positive perspective in their work, 15 human service workers from a diverse spectrum were interviewed. A narrative analysis was applied to elicit the participants' insights, revealing common themes and strategies. The findings indicated that having a fundamental belief in human potential, seeing the client's positive attributes, and having inherent capacities of caring were fundamental. Participants believed their work was meaningful and made a difference, and that they were a part of something bigger. They felt empathy and compassion toward clients, and generally believed that their temperament and upbringing also influenced their capacity to maintain a positive perspective. Aside from their beliefs, workers depended on receiving support from like-minded people, colleagues, and others in their environment. They utilized self-care, self-monitoring techniques, and demonstrated self-awareness and a mature capacity to adapt to the unexpected. They were able to apply their learning from past experiences in support of the services they offer to others.

Full textParticipation of colorectal cancer survivors (CRC) in the workforce has been described by clinicians, survivors, and researchers as a way to improve mood, quality of life (QOL), and survival. Maintaining self-esteem and financial independence have also been attributed to continued employment of the CRC survivor. The purpose of this cross-sectional survey was to describe patterns of employment of the CRC survivor and to examine the individual, disease, and work-related factors that influence presenteeism and perceived adequacy of sick pay (ASP) policy. The Conceptual Model of Nursing and Health Policy and the Pathways to Work Life Recovery guided the design, selection of variables, and specification of the relationship between variables. The study included 97 CRC survivors who were employed at the time of diagnosis and who had completed treatment ≥6 months and < 7 years to survey. Among working subjects, at-work limitations ("presenteeism") were measured by the Work Limitations Questionnaire (WLQ) consisting of four scales: Time Management, Physical Tasks, Mental-Interpersonal Tasks, and Output Tasks scales. The EORTC QLQ-C30 V3 was used to measure quality of life and the PHQ-9 for depression. The majority of gaps in employment occurred within the first year of diagnosis (21%) and attributed to poor health (56%), having been fired or laid off due to cancer (11%) or retirement (33%). A total of 27% had gaps in employment by 3 years; 13% were intermittent. The unemployment rate for cancer survivors in this study was 18.6% at the time of survey. Slightly over 25% of those who experienced a gap in employment did so involuntarily. Higher education (OR = 0.346, p=.006) was the only variable that significantly associated with a gap in employment. Having insurance (p=.03), QOL (p=.01), and depression (p=.003) significantly contributed to increased presenteeism. Earlier stage (OR=0.330, p=.050) and professional occupation (OR=3.281, p=.040) significantly contributed to perceptions of having an ASP policy. The importance of measuring continued employment of CRC survivors is supported in this study. The provision of an ASP policy may avoid disruption of work and create an easier transition for continued employment of the CRC survivor.

Resumo: Esta tese analisa, a partir de uma perspectiva comparativa, as implicações da globalização e da reestruturação produtiva, associada às transformações tecnológicas e organizacionais, para o trabalho dos gerentes em oito fábricas de eletrodomésticos de linha branca, localizadas em cinco países: Brasil, Turquia, China, Coréia do Sul e Taiwan. Trata-se de verificar em que medida esses processos de mudança, nas últimas décadas, têm tido rebatimentos importantes no interior das fábricas, alterando significantemente as condições de trabalho dos gerentes, a exemplo do que vivenciam outras categorias de empregados assalariados. Este estudo argumenta que os gerentes vivenciam uma situação peculiar, sendo considerados atores-chave para a introdução de inovações no contexto de reestruturação das empresas e, ao mesmo tempo, alvos desses processos, uma vez que não deixam de ser fortemente afetados por essas transformações. A perspectiva comparativa adotada permitiu observar semelhanças entre as fábricas estudadas, tais como: redução de postos gerenciais, aumento da parte variável do salário e intensificação da carga de trabalho dos gerentes. As diferenças se destacaram, especialmente, na percepção dos gerentes sobre suas condições de trabalho e na utilização de contratos temporários de trabalho pelas empresas estudadas. Em todos os locais de trabalho pesquisados os gerentes vivenciavam, por um lado, o aumento das exigências profissionais e, por outro, a redução de garantias no emprego. Os procedimentos metodológicos adotados para a elaboração deste estudo compreenderam pesquisa bibliográfica, pesquisa de campo e visitas às fábricas em todos os países mencionados. Dessa maneira, procurou-se empreender uma análise das mudanças no setor de linha branca que estivesse calcada na observação dos locais de trabalho e nas percepções dos sujeitos envolvidos.
Abstract: This thesis analyzes, from a comparative perspective, the consequences of globalization and productive restructuring, associated with technological and organizational changes, to the labor of managers in eight white goods companies located in five countries: Brazil, Turkey, China, South Korea and Taiwan. This thesis is concerned with verifying to which extent, in recent decades, these change processes have had significant effects inside the factories, modifying the work conditions of managers, the same way it has been affecting other categories of salaried employees. The study argues that the managers are facing a peculiar situation: they are considered central actors in the introduction of innovations in restructuring companies' contexts and, also, they are targets of these processes, being strongly affected by these transformations. The comparative perspective adopted in this research enabled the observation of similarities among the factories studied, such as: a reduction of managerial posts, an increase of the variable part of salary and an intensification of the workload of managers. The differences appeared, especially, in the managers' perceptions about their own work conditions and in the use of temporary employment contracts by the companies studied. In all workplaces studied, the managers experienced, on the one hand, the increase of job requirements and, on the other hand, the reduction of employment guarantees. The methodological procedures to the realization of this study included bibliographical research, fieldwork and visits to factories in all the countries mentioned. Thus, the intention was to elaborate an analysis of the changes in the white goods sector based on the observation of the workplace and the frame of reference of individuals involved.
