It tries to differentiate the dysfunctional phenomena more tied to the anomalies of the interpersonal relationships (bullying at work-place) from the phenomena more clearly related to organizational dysfunctions. The inventory measures the overall effects of these two areas on the subject and the spin-off in term of bio-psycho-social functioning. The questionnaire has been administered to a group of 178 workers who showed a work-related psychopathological disturbance and to a control group of 178 subjects without exposure to bullying at workplace or to organizational distress. The statistical analysis demonstrated degree of significant validity and reliability. The degree of internal coherence of the answers proposed is satisfactory. The ROC curves allow the determination of a threshold value which allows separating the workers subjected to mobbing and/or organizational stress from control-workers with an optimal reliability degree. The values of the area under the ROC curves show that the inventory has a high discriminating capacity.展开更多

Is it an indicator of the workplace satisfaction level, according to the perception of Hitachi Chemical employees in Montemorelos, Nuevo León, México? This study's design is both explanatory and cross-sectional. The sample size was composed of 143 Hitachi Chemical employees of Montemorelos, Nuevo León, México. For the data collection, two instruments were used: the first instrument was used to measure the quality of organizational climate and the second was focused on measuring the workplace satisfaction level. As a result, the level of organizational climate quality is in fact a predictor of workplace satisfaction of Hitachi Chemical employees. After the regression analysis, it was found that the variable, level of organizational climate, explained a 71.4% variance in the dependent variable, work satisfaction. It was determined that organizational climate is a strong predictor of work satisfaction perceived by employees of Hitachi Chemicals, Montemorelos, Nuevo León, México. It can be established that the greater the levels of organizational climate experienced by the employees, the greater the level of work satisfaction will be.展开更多

However, members of these teams often work in stressful and unhealthy environments, which can undermine their productivity and well-being. The humanization of the culture of technology teams is an approach that aims to create healthier and more productive work environments for team members, promoting balance between personal and professional life. Despite the importance of a healthy and productive work environment, many companies do not invest in strategies to humanize the culture of their technology teams. This can lead to high levels of stress, staff turnover and low productivity. The objective of this project is to identify effective strategies to humanize the culture of technology teams and create healthier and more productive work environments in digital companies. For this, factors such as management styles, psychological safety, human-centered development, individual beliefs and time and energy management will be analyzed. The project’s methodology will include a literature review on the subject and qualitative data analysis will be performed using a content analysis approach. This project will contribute to the advancement of knowledge about the humanization of the culture of technology teams in digital companies. The results can be applied to companies that want to create healthier and more productive work environments for their team members.展开更多
