O presente estudo aborda o tema do bem-estar dos profissionais dos Estabelecimentos Prisionais em específico, técnicos de reeducação e guardas prisionais. O estudo tem como objetivo principal compreender em que medida os determinantes de bem-estar, no caso, de Técnicos e Guardas Prisionais, estão relacionados com os fatores que caracterizam os Estabelecimentos Prisionais, designadamente exigência no trabalho, controlo, suporte social, identificação com a organização, autoeficácia, variáveis sociodemográficas e duração das carreiras. O estudo foi elaborado com recurso a um questionário, realizado online devido à impossibilidade de ser efetuado presencialmente, uma vez que as circunstâncias associadas à Covid-19 assim o obrigaram, a profissionais de Reeducação e Guardas prisionais, com a colaboração da Associação dos Profissionais Técnicos Superiores de Educação Social e do Sindicato dos Guardas Prisionais, respetivamente. Sendo certo que a colaboração de uma associação de profissionais e de um sindicato podem influenciar os resultados, estes são importantes pois revelam que entre as variantes analisadas, as que tendencialmente influenciam o bem-estar dos profissionais são o volume de trabalho, as oportunidades de progressão na carreira, a identificação com a organização, a autoeficácia e a duração das carreiras. Com este estudo, foi possível identificar que algumas determinantes do bem-estar influenciam o bem-estar dos técnicos e dos guardas prisionais, nomeadamente, a exigência no trabalho a identificação com a organização, a autoeficácia e a duração das carreiras.
Estas identificações podem contribuir para a revisão das condições de trabalho de profissionais aumentando a sua perceção de bem-estar e provavelmente, por essa via, melhorar a sua qualidade na ação profissional.
