Resumo(s)
This study examines the relationship between decent work and psychological safety, analysing whether work modality (onsite, remote, hybrid) and sector of activity (services versus industry) shape employees' experiences of both constructs. It aims to clarify how structural work conditions translate into relational climates of interpersonal safety. Data were collected from 423 employees across Portuguese organisations using a cross-sectional survey design. The Decent Work Questionnaire and the Psychological Safety Scale were employed. Results show a strong positive relationship between decent work and psychological safety. Employees in hybrid arrangements and in the services sector reported higher perceptions of both constructs. However, neither work modality nor sector moderated this relationship, suggesting that the positive association between decent work and psychological safety is stable across contexts. Organisations should prioritise decent work principles to enhance psychological safety across different work arrangements and sectors.
