Abstract

Resumo Objetivo: Analisar a proatividade de trabalhadores de enfermagem em um hospital universitário público. Métodos: Estudo transversal realizado, entre abril e junho de 2015, com 347 trabalhadores de um hospital universitário público do sul do Brasil, mediante preenchimento de um questionário composto de dados socioprofissionais e da Escala reduzida de Comportamentos Proativos nas Organizações. A estatística descritiva e inferencial subsidiou a análise dos dados. Resultados: Constatou-se forte emissão de comportamentos proativos em 218 (62,8%) dos participantes. As médias de proatividade foram associadas às categorias profissionais e inversamente correlacionadas à idade, tempo de trabalho na área da saúde e no hospital. Conclusão: Fatores individuais afetam a proatividade no trabalho e a forte emissão de comportamentos proativos é um facilitador para que as lideranças fomentem a ampliação dos mesmos no âmbito das equipes de trabalho.

Abstract Objective: To analyze the proactivity of nursing staff in a public university hospital. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted from April to June of 2015, with 347 workers at a public university hospital in southern Brazil, by means of a questionnaire composed of socio-professional data and the shortened version of the Proactive Behaviors in Organizations Scale. The descriptive and inferential statistics supported the data analysis. Results: Proactive behavior was identified in 218 (62.8%) of the participants. The proactivity means were associated with the professional categories and inversely correlated to age, and the period of time working in the health area and in the hospital. Conclusion: Individual factors affect proactivity at work and a strong presence of proactive behaviors facilitates the leaders in encouraging their expansion in the context of the work teams.

Reciprocal relationship between proactive personality and work characteristics: a latent change score approach.

Wen-Dong Li, Doris Fay, Michael Fresé … (2014)

Previous proactivity research has predominantly assumed that proactive personality generates positive environmental changes in the workplace. Grounded in recent research on personality development from a broad interactionist theoretical approach, the present article investigates whether work characteristics, including job demands, job control, social support from supervisors and coworkers, and organizational constraints, change proactive personality over time and, more important, reciprocal relationships between proactive personality and work characteristics. Latent change score analyses based on longitudinal data collected in 3 waves across 3 years show that job demands and job control have positive lagged effects on increases in proactive personality. In addition, proactive personality exerts beneficial lagged effects on increases in job demands, job control, and supervisory support, and on decreases in organizational constraints. Dynamic reciprocal relationships are observed between proactive personality with job demands and job control. The revealed corresponsive change relationships between proactive personality and work characteristics contribute to the proactive personality literature by illuminating more nuanced interplays between the agentic person and work characteristics, and also have important practical implications for organizations and employees.
