Calidad de vidallaboral y liderazgo en trabajadres asistenciales y administrattivos en un centro oncológico de bogotá (Colombia)* / Work quality of life and leadership in administrative staff and health care personnel of an oncological center in Bogotá (Colombia)

El propósito de este estudio fue describir la Calidad de vida laboral (CVL) y el estilo de liderazgo percibido por el personal administrativo/asistencial de un centro oncológico y estimar la asociación entre ellas, considerando las características sociodemográficas. Para ello se aplicó el Cuestionario de Vida Profesional [CVP-35] y el Test de Adjetivos de Pitcher [pat] a 38 trabajadores de la salud, que constituyen el 97.2 % del total del personal que labora en el centro. En general, los participantes presentan una CVL satisfactoria, caracterizada principalmente por motivación intrínseca, lo cual fue más evidente en el personal asistencial. Se observó una percepción de ausencia de liderazgo o características poco deseables de este, lo cual, aunque no determina la CVL, sí constituye un factor modulador de la misma; las variables sociodemográficas no guardaron relación con la CVL. Por último se resalta la responsabilidad social que tienen los directivos en el bienestar de los trabajadores de la salud y, consecuentemente, en la atención al paciente. Se discuten estos hallazgos y lo pertinente de utilizar las categorías emergentes del pat.

The aim of this study was to describe the work Quality of Life (wql) and perceived leadership style by administrative staff/and health care personnel in an oncological center and estimate the association between them, considering socio-demographic characteristics. We applied the Professional Life Questionnaire [plq-35] and Pitcher Adjectives Test [PAT] to 38 health workers that represent 97.2 % of the total personal that work at the center. In general, participants have a satisfactory wql, mainly characterized by intrinsic motivation, which was most evident in the care team. With respect to leadership, lack of leadership or undesirable features of it were perceived, which do not determine the wql but constitute a modulator factor. Socio-demographic variables were not related to the wql. Finally it highlights the social responsibility that managers have on welfare of health workers, and consequently, on the patient care. We discuss these findings, and the relevance of using the emerging categories of pat.

Modelo integrativo de la calidad de vida laboral percibida a partir de la inseguridad laboral, la jornada laboral y el salario, para hombres y mujeres trabajadores de empresas de la ciudad de Bogotá en diferentes rangos de edad / Integrative model of quality of working life perceived of job insecurity, working hours and wages, for men and women workers in enterprises of the city of Bogotá in different age ranges

El estudio de la calidad de vida laboral percibida (CVLP) ha estado dirigido a examinar aspectos aislados de las diferentes variables que determinan su percepción. La presente investigación tuvo por objetivo la integración de tres variables de reconocida importancia en la literatura científica: la inseguridad laboral, la jornada laboral y el salario, a fin de establecer en qué grado su combinación explica la CVLP. Para ello se tomó una muestra de 100 personas que laboraban en 3 empresas del sector de servicios de la ciudad de Bogotá y se les aplicaron dos instrumentos: la prueba PCVL, diseñada por Gómez (2007) y un cuestionario de aspectos socio-laborales diseñado para efectos de la presente investigación. Los datos fueron analizados bajo el modelo de ecuaciones estructurales e indicaron que solo el salario en su atributo de cuantía predice y explica de manera significativa la CVLP en toda la muestra. También se encontró que la edad y el género tienen un efecto significativo para moderar el efecto de las tres variables de estudio sobre la CVLP y algunas de sus dimensiones. El estudio en general muestra que el modelo inicial debe continuar replanteándose para mejorar su capacidad explicativa.

Perceived Work Quality of Life (PWQL) research had been focused to examine isolated topics about different variables that determine its perception. The present research had like goal to integrate three variables more recognized in scientific literature: work insecurity, working day and salary, to establish the grade these link variables explaining PWQL. With these objective a sample of 100 people who worked in three service's sector enterprises of Bogotá were taken to applied them two test: PWQL Test, designed by Gómez (2007) and Work Social Topics Questionnaire designed to present research.. Outputs were analyzed under Structural Equation Model and these showed that just salary's amount of attribute predicts and explain meaningful PWQL in all sample. Age and gender have significant effect to moderate three study variable's effect about PWQL and some dimensions of this was founded too. Study in general way shows that initial model must continue rethinking to improve explanatory capacity.

A Universidade como espaço promotor de qualidade de vida: vivências e expressões dos alunos de enfermagem / The University as a place that promotes quality of life: perceptions and experiences of nursing students

Considerando o processo de formação vivenciado, particularmente, pelos alunos de graduação em enfermagem da PUC/SP e suas relações com a qualidade de vida, esta pesquisa teve como objetivos: identificar as percepções que o aluno de graduação em enfermagem tem em relação a sua qualidade de vida atual e a futura qualidade de vida no trabalho; compreender e analisar as principais demandas por ele evidenciadas no resgate das situações vividas e as estratégias de enfrentamento utilizadas que impactam na melhoria da sua qualidade de vida. A pesquisa foi qualitativa, e os dados foram obtidos por meio de entrevistas individuais, na primeira fase. A análise dos temas resgatados dos discursos na primeira fase, nortearam os temas disparadores dos cinco encontros de grupo focal na segunda fase. Nesse sentido trata-se de uma modalidade de pesquisa-ação. Os dados gerados nos encontros grupais foram analisados e segundo a modalidade da análise temática, estruturada nas categorias: qualidade de vida; qualidade de vida no trabalho; qualidade de vida dos trabalhadores de enfermagem e qualidade de vida de estudantes universitários. Após análise foi realizada uma adaptação do Modelo Ecológico de QVE proposto por Benjamin (1994) considerado capaz de apreender a qualidade de vida dos alunos de enfermagem. Os resultados evidenciaram que a Universidade é um espaço que propicia vivências de promotoras e não promotoras de qualidade de vida dos alunos. Ficou evidente a necessidade de implantação de encontros sistematizados, no curriculum, nos quais os alunos e professores tenham a oportunidade de discutir a construção individual e coletiva de estratégias de enfrentamento das situações geradoras de desgaste favorecendo o fortalecimento da qualidade de vida dos mesmos.

Considering the perceptions about the development process experienced specifically by the nursing students from PUC/SP and their relation with quality of life, this research has had the following objectives: identify the perceptions the nursing students have in relation to their present quality of life and their future quality of life at work; understand and analyse the main requirements evidenced by them in rescuing the situations they have lived and the directions and suggested confrontation strategies that may impact on improving their quality of life. The research was the qualitative mode and, in the first stage, the data were obtained through individual interviews. The analysis of the topics taken from this first stage guided the starting themes of the five meetings of the focus group in the second stage. Because of this it is a research-action tipe. The data obtained in the group meetings were analysed according to the thematic analyses mode based on the following categories: quality of life at work, quality of life of nursing workers and quality of life of university students. After the analysis was done, it was adjusted to the "Students Ecological Model of Quality of Life" proposed by Benjamin (1994), considered able to grasp the quality of life of nursing students. The results showed that the University is a place that provides perceptions that promote or not students quality of not students quality of life. It was very clear the need to implement systematic meetings in the curriculum so that both students and teachers may have the opportunity to discuss the individual and collective development of strategies to face the stressing situation they experience so that they may strengthen their quality of life.
