Abstract(s)
O presente estudo aborda a problemática do conflito trabalho-família numa perspetiva bidirecional, bem como as características do trabalho, mais especificamente as exigências do trabalho, e a satisfação laboral. Assim, este estudo apresenta três objetivos principais: 1) analisar e compreender a relação entre as exigências do trabalho e o conflito trabalho-família (CTF) e a relação entre a satisfação laboral e o conflito família-trabalho (CFT); 2) perceber as diferenças de género no conflito trabalho-família e por fim, 3) o papel mediador do CTF para homens e do CFT para mulheres na relação entre as exigências do trabalho e a satisfação laboral. A amostra é constituída por 139 participantes de duas empresas portuguesas, sendo que os dados foram recolhidos com recurso a três questionários (Work-Family Conflict Scale; Job Content Questionnaire; Job Satisfaction). Os resultados obtidos não confirmam a relação positiva entre as exigências do trabalho e o CTF e, não confirmam a relação negativa entre a satisfação laboral e o CFT. Para além disso, não foi possível examinar o papel mediador do CTF para homens e do CFT para mulheres na relação entre as exigências do trabalho e a satisfação laboral. Como expectável foram encontradas diferenças significativas relativamente ao género no conflito trabalho-família, isto é os homens apresentam níveis superiores de CTF enquanto que as mulheres apresentam níveis superiores de CFT.
The present study aimed at addressing work-family conflict in a bidirectional perspective, as well as work characteristics, more specifically job demands, and job satisfaction. This study has three main aims: 1) analyzing and understanding the relation between job demands and work-family conflict (WFC) and the relation between job satisfaction and family-work conflict (FWC); 2) gender differences in the work-family conflict and finally, 3) the mediator role of WFC for men and of FWC for women in the relation between job demands and job satisfaction The sample includes 139 participants from two Portuguese companies, and data were collected using three questionnaires (Work-Family Conflict Scale; Job Content Questionnaire; Job Satisfaction). The results obtained do not confirm the positive relation between job demands and WFC and do not confirm the negative relation between job satisfaction and FWC. Furthermore, it was not possible to examine the mediating role of WFC for men and FWC for women in the relation between job demands and job satisfaction. As expected, significant gender differences were found for the work-family conflict, that is men have higher levels of WFC while women have higher levels of FWC.
