Abstract(s)
A presente investigação insere-se na temática do bem-estar e da satisfação laboral no contexto do ensino público em Portugal, procurando explorar as perceções dos docentes sobre o vínculo contratual, a progressão na carreira e as intenções de permanência ou saída da profissão. O estudo surge em resposta à crescente preocupação com a precarização da carreira docente e os elevados níveis de desgaste emocional e físico reportados por professores. Recorrendo a uma abordagem qualitativa, foram realizadas entrevistas semiestruturadas a vinte docentes com diferentes vínculos contratuais e em fases distintas da carreira. A análise de conteúdo levou à identificação de categorias decorrentes da problemática inerente ao estudo (e.g. burnout). Os resultados sugerem que o bem-estar e a satisfação dos docentes estão fortemente condicionados pelas relações estabelecidas com encarregados de educação, colegas e alunos; pelo vínculo contratual, que enquadra a perceção de estabilidade e segurança profissional; e pela forma como os professores percecionam o reconhecimento e a valorização do seu desempenho nos processos avaliativos. A investigação propõe linhas de aprofundamento para estudos futuros, com o intuito de alargar o conhecimento sobre os desafios e as condições que configuram a experiência profissional dos docentes em Portugal.
The present study falls within the scope of teacher well-being and job satisfaction in the context of public education in Portugal, aiming to explore teachers’ perceptions regarding contractual status, career progression, and their intentions to remain in or leave the profession. This research arises in response to growing concerns about the precariousness of the teaching profession and the high levels of emotional and physical exhaustion reported by educators. Adopting a qualitative approach, semi-structured interviews were conducted with twenty teachers holding different types of contractual agreements and at various stages of their careers. Content analysis led to the identification of key categories emerging from the core issues addressed in the study (e.g., burnout). The findings suggest that teachers’ well-being and job satisfaction are strongly conditioned by their relationships with parents, colleagues, and students; by their contractual status, which shapes perceptions of professional stability and security; and by the extent to which they feel recognized and valued in performance appraisal processes. The study outlines avenues for further research, aiming to expand understanding of the challenges and conditions that shape the professional experience of teachers in Portugal.
