Abstract(s)
O teletrabalho é, cada vez mais, uma realidade atual e generalizada. Conhecer este
regime de estruturação ocupacional, os seus desafios, implicações e potencialidades é
necessário para que seja possível garantir as condições necessárias para o desempenho
seguro e eficiente das funções laborais e minimizar potenciais riscos. A forma como o
teletrabalho, potencialmente, se associa e impacta os indicadores de bem-estar nos
indivíduos tem sido estudado nos últimos anos, especialmente após a pandemia Covid-19.
Ainda assim, existe pouca investigação aplicada e falta de consenso na literatura acerca
destas questões. O presente estudo pretende, com base em literatura pertinente,
caracterizar, teoricamente, os conceitos de bem-estar e fatores psicossociais (de risco) e
analisar, empiricamente, potenciais diferenças e associações entre estes em função de
variáveis sociodemográficas e socioprofissionais numa amostra de teletrabalhadores
portugueses.
Os dados para o presente estudo foram obtidos através da administração de um protocolo
online, que abrangia os instrumentos Copenhagen Psychosocial Questionnaire – II
(COPSOQ – II) e a Escala Portuguesa de Afeto Positivo e Negativo (PANAS-VRP). Para
analisar quantitativamente os dados, foram realizados testes de diferença, regressões
lineares simples e uma correlação. Quanto aos resultados obtidos, estes demonstraram
que existe uma associação entre os riscos psicossociais e fatores psicossociais protetores
dos indicadores de saúde e bem-estar com o afeto negativo e o afeto positivo. Já nos testes
de diferença, foi evidenciado que as mulheres e os trabalhadores em regime híbrido
parecem apresentar maiores níveis de exigências quantitativas em comparação com os
homens e com quem atua em regime exclusivamente remoto, respetivamente.
Telework is increasingly becoming a current and widespread reality. Understanding this occupational structuring regime, its challenges, implications and potential is necessary to ensure the conditions required for the safe and efficient performance of work tasks and to minimize potential risks. The way in which teleworking potentially relates to and impacts individuals’ well-being indicators has been studied in recent years, especially following the Covid-19 pandemic. Nevertheless, there is little applied research and a lack of consensus in the literature regarding these issues. Based on relevant literature, the present study aims to theoretically characterize the concepts of well-being and psychosocial factors (risk factors) and to empirically analyze potential differences and associations between them according to sociodemographic and socioprofessional variables in a sample of Portuguese teleworkers. The data for this study were obtained through the administration of an online protocol, which included the Copenhagen Psychosocial Questionnaire (COPSOQ-II) and the Portuguese Version of the Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS-VRP). To analyze the data quantitatively, difference tests, simple linear regressions and a correlation were performed. As for the results obtained, they showed an association between psychosocial risks and protective psychosocial factors related to health and wellbeing with both negative and positive affect. The difference tests also revealed that women and workers in a hybrid work regime appear to experience higher levels of quantitative demands compared to men and those working exclusively remotely, respectively.
