There is a strong correlation between macroeconomic conditions and migration in general, which drives population loss in rural areas with fewer job opportunities. This relationship between work and migration resonates with people's experiences and is backed up by large quantitative studies. But qualitative research on community outmigration yields more nuanced insights into migration as a biographical, subjective process that is influenced as much by perceptions and discourses linking success with big cities as by actual job opportunities. These insights have shifted recent scholarship away from job-centric explanations toward a greater appreciation for other place-related factors that affect life satisfaction and well-being. In this paper, we seek to apply these insights in a quantitative analysis looking at why Atlantic Canadians plan to leave their communities. We further consider how several job quality and satisfaction measures intersect with community characteristics and demographics to shape migration intentions. Using data from a 2019 survey of 1,277 Atlantic Canadians, we find that respondents from both urban and rural areas are motivated to leave their communities by a variety of factors--not only for work, but also for social and lifestyle reasons--although people under 30 are especially likely to cite work or school as their reason for leaving. While most job quality and satisfaction measures did not significantly influence migration intentions, we find that job stability factors--for example, permanent contracts and stable hours--are linked to lower migration intentions among rural residents, in particular.

Résumé: L'hétérosexisme et le cisgenrisme peuvent conduire à des expériences d'exclusion sociale vécues au travail, qui nuisent au bien‐être des personnes LGBTQ+. Pour mesurer cette réalité, les auteurs construisent un indice de qualité de l'emploi spécifique, en s'appuyant sur des données issues d'un échantillon de 1 761 travailleurs et travailleuses LGBTQ+ du Québec, recrutés dans le cadre de l'enquête SAVIE‐LGBTQ (2019–2020). Cet indice, créé au moyen de scores factoriels, comprend 16 indicateurs et 5 dimensions. Il possède une cohérence interne acceptable et est associé modérément à la satisfaction au travail des personnes LGBTQ+. L'indice révèle des différences attendues entre les groupes, ce qui soutient sa validité conceptuelle. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Negative effects on employee well-being as a result of staff cuts are widely hypothesized in the literature, although empirical evidence is still quite limited. This study attempts to determine whether budget cuts and downsizing in the affected departments have had the same impact on Canadian federal public servants' job satisfaction as is suggested in the literature. Budget cuts were rarely added to staff reductions. The results show that budget cuts negatively impact the attitudes of federal employees at a 10 % threshold, but only marginally. Overall, a slight decrease in job satisfaction was observed, whereas the theory predicted more dissatisfaction. In future episodes of austerity, parametric budget or workforce cuts of five percent could be maintained in order to minimize adverse impacts on federal civil servants' job satisfaction.

Cette recherche a porté sur l’étude de la satisfaction au travail et des comportements de citoyenneté organisationnelle des enseignants des écoles secondaires privées et publiques de Kindu. À cet effet, nous nous sommes posés la question de savoir si tous ces enseignants étaient-ils satisfaits au travail et ce qui les amenait à s’y accrocher et adopter des comportements volontaires pouvant aider leurs organisations à être performantes ? Les résultats ont ainsi révélé qu’en majorité, les enquêtés ne sont pas satisfaits des aspects intrinsèques de leur travail. Par contre, ils se sentent satisfaits des aspects extrinsèques de leur travail. Ensuite, les résultats indiquent également qu’en majorité, les sujets enquêtés font montre de l’altruisme, de l’entraide et de la vertu civique ; mais ils ne manifestent pas l’esprit d’équipe.

This article sets down the foundations of a research project on Health and Physical Education (HPE) teachers' job satisfaction and job embededness. According to the literature, HPE teachers has a weak status inside and outside school which may conduct to professional marginalization. After describing the situation of the teaching profession in the province of Québec, the focus is directed toward HPE as a teaching specialty. A conceptual framework that articulates job satisfaction and job embededness models is then proposed. In conclusion of this theoretical reflexion, considering the actual teacher shortage, school organizations are invited to adhere to a more sustainable approach of teaching resources management.

Introduction. L’holisme, la pratique centrée sur le client (PCC) et l’utilisation de l’activité signifiante constituent des principes centraux guidant la pratique de l’ergothérapie. Dans le contexte des mesures d’optimisation de la performance et de réduction des coûts mises en œuvre par les établissements de santé du Québec, il devient toutefois difficile pour les ergothérapeutes œuvrant en soutien à domicile (SAD) de respecter ces principes. Ce contexte peut affecter le sens que ces ergothérapeutes attribuent à leur travail quotidien. Objectif. Le but de cette étude est d’explorer le sens que les ergothérapeutes en SAD attribuent à leur travail clinique quotidien. Méthodologie. Une enquête qualitative de type recherche descriptive interprétative a été réalisée. Neuf ergothérapeutes provenant de trois établissements du Grand Montréal et de la Montérégie ont été rencontrés lors d’entretiens semi-dirigés (n = 3 entretiens) et d’un groupe de discussion focalisée (n = 2 entretiens du groupe). Résultats. L’extraction et la condensation des données ont permis de dégager 12 thèmes principaux relatifs aux éléments contributifs ou défavorables au sens de la pratique des ergothérapeutes. La possibilité d’intervenir directement dans le milieu de vie de la personne constitue un élément particulièrement signifiant de la pratique en SAD. A contrario, les pressions organisationnelles actuelles engendrent des altérations de cette pratique et créent un conflit avec les valeurs contemporaines de la profession. Discussion/conclusion. Cette étude amorce une réflexion autour de la pratique des ergothérapeutes en SAD. Elle permet d’identifier les éléments permettant aux ergothérapeutes d’avoir une pratique signifiante et cohérente avec leurs principes et valeurs. _______________________________________________________________________________ Practice of occupational therapy in Quebec homecare settings: a meaningful work? Background. Holism, client-centered practice (CCP) and the use of meaningful activity are core principles guiding the practice of occupational therapy. Given performance and cost optimization measures put forward by health care institutions in Quebec, it is difficult for Occupational Therapists working in home support to respect these principles. This context may affect the meaning these occupational therapists attribute to their daily work. Objective. The purpose of this study is to explore the meaning that SAD occupational therapists attribute to their daily work. Methodology. A descriptive interpretive research was conducted by a qualitative survey. Nine occupational therapists from three institutions in Greater Montreal and Montérégie were interviewed in semi-structured interviews (n = 3 interviews) and focus group discussions (n = 2 groups). Results. The extraction and compiling of data revealed twelve main themes related to meaning, as contributory or unfavorable elements in the practice of occupational therapists. The possibility of directly intervening in the person’s living environment is an element of SAD practice particularly contributory to meaning. In contrast, the current organizational pressures are altering this practice and creating a conflict with the contemporary values ​​of the profession. Discussion/Conclusion. This study initiates a reflexion on the practice of occupational therapists in SAD. It identifies the elements that allow occupational therapists to have a meaningful practice that is consistent with their core principles and values.

La présente étude lance le débat sur les effets de l’orientation marché de l’entreprise sur la satisfaction au travail du personnel en contact avec la clientèle. Elle cherche exactement à montrer l’utilité de l’approche culturelle de l’orientation marché dans la production du sentiment de satisfaction chez l’employé commercial. Les hypothèses ont été testées sur un échantillon d’employés commerciaux opérant dans ledomaine des services. Les résultats approuvent les études antérieures réalisées principalement dans le domaine industriel.L’analyse des régressions montre que l’orientation marché est fortement liée à la satisfaction au travail.L’orientation marché apparaît donc comme un référentiel organisationnel, un dispositif culturel nécessaire pour faire éprouver des sentiments favorables à la production d’un comportement conduisant à la satisfaction du client.

The present study investigates the predictive aspects of the work-family conflict in professionals in the hospital context. Such contexts are commonly investigated in terms of health domains and organizational factors, with effects on aspects of work-family interaction still little explored. Research on the work-family relationship is important both for organizations, for families, professionals, and society. Therefore, a survey study was conducted, with 470 workers, with a mean age of 34.50 years and an average years working in the profession of 8.0 years. Participants answered a survey composed of questions and psychological scales. The results pointed out that aspects of family interference at work were predicted by age, career time, intention to leave the organization and organizational incivility, and work to interfere in the family also involved aspects of workload, work satisfaction, organizational commitment and civility organizational structure. It is discussed suggestions for management and research on the subject in organizations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Systematically ascertained data on job stress and burnout and their antecedents and mediators in health professionals from low- and middle-income countries are scant. This cross sectional survey, conducted from July 2007 to August 2008, of consenting medical and surgical faculty of a large, charitable, teaching hospital aimed to evaluate: 1) the prevalence and sources of job stress and job satisfaction, and the ways used to cope with stress; 2) the prevalence of burnout and mental distress; and 3) the influence of age, gender, empathy and religious or spiritual beliefs on job stress, satisfaction, mental health and burnout. Of 345 respondents, high job stress on the Physician Stress and Satisfaction questionnaire were reported by 23%. However, 98% of faculty reported high levels of job satisfaction with deriving intellectual stimulation from teaching and a high level of responsibility identified as important contributory sources. Significantly more respondents aged < 45 years compared to older faculty achieved moderate or high scores on Emotional Exhaustion and Depersonalization. General Health Questionnaire-12 scores suggested psychiatric morbidity in 21%, particularly in younger faculty. High job stress was associated with high scores for Emotional Exhaustion and Depersonalization. High scores on the Jefferson Scale of Physician Empathy correlated with high scores of Emotional Exhaustion. Religious or spiritual beliefs strongly influencing attitudes to work were significantly associated with high levels of Personal Accomplishment. This study provides data that will inform the design and implementation of interventions to reduce job stress and burnout and improve retention of faculty. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In existing literature the tutorial function is considered as a basic component of the teaching practice and a factor of teaching quality. The goal of our work is to analyze the different aspects of mentoring in Infant, Primary and Secondary Education, Baccalaureate and Vocational Training. In order to achieve this goal, we emailed a test to a sample of mentors in all the autonomous regions of Spain. The test was filled in by 1,350 mentors. Given the constant changes in Spain's socio educational reality, an exploratory work was carried out to obtain information about the current situation of the mentoring function. The analysis of their answers indicates that, as stated in existing research, they feel satisfied with their task, while they consider the aforementioned function is quite important for the education of pupils and the well-functioning of educational institutions. They feel reasonably recognized in their mentoring function both by teachers and by families. Nevertheless, they do not think the same about the recognition shown by the educational authorities. They understand that their mentoring task should count more towards their professional career. They consider that they receive adequate collaboration from the teaching staff, families and management boards in education centres. We understand that the educational authorities should further support mentors and improve their professional situation. Finally, it seems necessary to analyze the development of tutorial action according to the constant socioeducational and normative changes that occur. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Résumé: Pour mesurer la motivation professionnelle autre que pécuniaire, on demande généralement aux gens s'ils continueraient à travailler s'ils gagnaient au loto. Les auteurs rappellent les conclusions des études menées sur la base des réponses à cette question dans différents pays dont Israël, tout en recherchant l'influence en la matière des variables démographiques et des différentes dimensions du sens du travail. Ils constatent un net recul de la motivation professionnelle autre que pécuniaire au nouveau millénaire, et une évolution des facteurs en cause. Ils analysent ces résultats et leurs effets potentiels sur le travail et l'emploi au regard de l'évolution économique et sociale en Israël. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Résumé: Le contexte actuel de crise des Soins premiers, combiné aux nouvelles aspirations et responsabilités familiales des praticiens, sont à l'origine d'une pénurie en acteurs des soins de premier recours. Pour solutionner cette problématique, une nouvelle dynamique tend à s'intéresser aux aspects « positifs » de la Médecine générale. Pour cela il est important d'identifier les facteurs de satisfaction professionnelle des médecins généralistes libéraux français, favorisant leur maintien dans la profession. The current context of the crisis of primary care, combined with new aspirations and family responsibilities of practitioners, are causing a shortage of actors in primary care. To solve this problem, a new dynamic tends to focus on the "positive" aspects of General Medicine. For that, it is important to identify the factors of professional satisfaction of French liberal general practitioners, favoring their maintenance in the profession. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
