Resumo(s)
O presente estudo tem como principal objetivo analisar o efeito da flexibilização do trabalho no bem-estar dos colaboradores. Para tal, estudou-se a relação entre as práticas de flexibilidade e a satisfação geral com a vida, assim como o papel mediador do work engagement nesta relação. No total foram analisadas 119 respostas de colaboradores de uma consultora de IT em Portugal. Os resultados indicam que a implementação de prá-ticas de flexibilidade nas organizações não é capaz de promover work engagement e satisfação geral com a vida. Os resultados demonstram ainda, que existe relação posi-tiva entre work engagement e satisfação geral com a vida, sendo o work engagement fator fundamental para o bem-estar dos colaboradores. Não foram encontradas evidên-cias que apoiassem o papel mediador do work engagement na relação entre as práticas de flexibilidade e a satisfação geral com a vida. Os resultados obtidos contribuem para a literatura ao permitem perceber a importância de se ter nas organizações, em paralelo à implementação das práticas de flexibilidade, uma cultura de suporte que apoie a uti-lização destas práticas, assim como, a importância de se investir no work engagement, de modo a melhorar o bem-estar dos colaboradores. São apresentadas algumas impli-cações práticas, assim como limitações e sugestões para estudos futuros.
The aim of the present study is to analyze the effect of flexible work arrangements on employees’ well-being. For that purpose, we studied the relationship between flexible work arrangements and life satisfaction, as well as the mediating role of work engagement in the relationship between these variables. A total of 119 answers from IT consultant workers in Portugal were analyzed. The results indicate that the implementation of flexible work arrange-ments is not capable to improve work engagement and life satisfaction. The findings showed a positive relationship between work engagement and life satisfaction, with work engagement being a fundamental factor for the employees’ well-being. There was no evidence found to support the mediating role of work engagement in the relationship between flexible work ar-rangements and life satisfaction. These results contribute to the literature by allowing a better understanding of how important it is for organizations to have a support culture, that supports the use of flexible work arrangements, when implementing these practices, as well as the im-portance of investing in work engagement, to improve employees’ well-being. Some practical implications, as well as limitations and suggestions for future studies are presented.
