Abstract(s)
Este estudo procurou investigar a relação entre a existência de um programa de Outplacement e o Bem-Estar, em profissionais em transição de carreira, consequência de despedimento involuntário, com as variáveis constituintes da Teoria da Autodeterminação – Amotivação, Motivação Extrínseca e Motivação Intrínseca – como variáveis mediadoras, na fase inicial de desemprego.
O presente trabalho assenta numa investigação de paradigma positivista, tendo uma perspetiva hipotético-dedutiva e recorrendo-se a uma metodologia quantitativa, tendo sido utilizado um inquérito por questionário como instrumento de recolha de dados. A população deste estudo é constituída por profissionais desempregados, na sequência de rescisão involuntária de contrato com as organizações para as quais trabalhavam e que iniciaram procura de emprego com o apoio de um programa de Outplacement. A amostra foi conseguida por conveniência, num total de 152 respondentes.
Os resultados indicaram que, embora o programa de Outplacement não tenha tido um impacto direto no bem-estar, contribuiu para a redução da amotivação e para o aumento da motivação intrínseca dos participantes. O estudo oferece ainda contribuições importantes para a compreensão do papel dos programas de Outplacement no processo de adaptação ao desemprego, destacando a sua influência na dinâmica motivacional de profissionais em transição de carreira.
This study sought to investigate the relationship between the existence of an Outplacement program and Well-Being among professionals undergoing career transition as a result of involuntary dismissal, with the constituent variables of the Self-Determination Theory — Amotivation, Extrinsic Motivation, and Intrinsic Motivation — acting as mediating variables during the initial phase of unemployment. This research adopts a positivist paradigm, following a hypothetical-deductive perspective and employing a quantitative methodology, using a questionnaire survey as the data collection instrument. The study population consists of unemployed professionals following the involuntary termination of their employment contracts, who began their job search with the support of an Outplacement program. The sample was obtained through convenience sampling, comprising a total of 152 respondents. The results indicated that, although the Outplacement program did not have a direct impact on well-being, it contributed to a reduction in amotivation and an increase in the participants’ intrinsic motivation. Furthermore, the study provides important contributions to understanding the role of Outplacement programs in the unemployment adaptation process, highlighting their influence on the motivational dynamics of professionals in career transition.
