Empenhamento organizacional e empregabilidade : estudo com uma amostra de colaboradores do sector farmacéutico

Tese de mestrado, Psicologia (Psicologia dos Recursos Humanos, do Trabalho e das Organizações), Universidade de Lisboa, Faculdade de Psicologia, 2012No mundo actual, em que a mudança, a competitividade e a necessidade de produtividade se destacam, a relação colaborador-organização deve ser cada vez mais tida em conta no desenvolvimento dos recursos humanos. Os colaboradores são confrontados com desafios que exigem uma crescente preocupação com o desenvolvimento das suas carreiras, com uma maior flexibilidade, e com a capacidade para se adaptarem às alterações no mercado de trabalho. Deste modo, possuir colaboradores comprometidos, capazes de gerirem a sua carreira e receptivos à mudança constitui uma vantagem competitiva para a Organização. É neste sentido que surge a importância de conceitos como o Empenhamento Organizacional e a Empregabilidade, cujo estudo correlacional constitui o objectivo do presente estudo. Para avaliar estes dois conceitos, foram aplicados a uma amostra de 47 colaboradores de uma empresa do sector farmacêutico, o Questionário sobre o Empenhamento Organizacional e o Inventário sobre Empregabilidade. Os resultados obtidos corroboram as hipóteses formuladas, sendo no final discutidas algumas considerações relativas a contributos e limitações do presente estudo, bem como sugestões de futuras linhas de investigação.In today's world, where change and productivity need to stand out, the organization-employee relationship must be increasingly taken into account in the development of human resources. Employees are being asked to deal with ever growing challenges that require to take into consideration the development of their own careers as well as their ability to adapt to the changes in the labour market. For this reason, Organizations hold a competitive advantage by employing committed individuals, capable of managing their own careers and willing to change as needed. The main objective of this study is to investigate the relation between these important concepts of Organizational Commitment and Employability. To measure these two concepts, the Organizational Commitment Questionnaire and the Dispositional Measure of Employability were applied to a sample of 47 employees of a pharmaceutical firm. The results seem to support the hypothesis originally formulated. In the end some considerations related to the limitations of present research are weaved and lines for further investigation are suggested

MAMMALS IN PORTUGAL : A data set of terrestrial, volant, and marine mammal occurrences in P ortugal

Mammals are threatened worldwide, with 26% of all species being includedin the IUCN threatened categories. This overall pattern is primarily associatedwith habitat loss or degradation, and human persecution for terrestrial mam-mals, and pollution, open net fishing, climate change, and prey depletion formarine mammals. Mammals play a key role in maintaining ecosystems func-tionality and resilience, and therefore information on their distribution is cru-cial to delineate and support conservation actions. MAMMALS INPORTUGAL is a publicly available data set compiling unpublishedgeoreferenced occurrence records of 92 terrestrial, volant, and marine mam-mals in mainland Portugal and archipelagos of the Azores and Madeira thatincludes 105,026 data entries between 1873 and 2021 (72% of the data occur-ring in 2000 and 2021). The methods used to collect the data were: live obser-vations/captures (43%), sign surveys (35%), camera trapping (16%),bioacoustics surveys (4%) and radiotracking, and inquiries that represent lessthan 1% of the records. The data set includes 13 types of records: (1) burrowsjsoil moundsjtunnel, (2) capture, (3) colony, (4) dead animaljhairjskullsjjaws, (5) genetic confirmation, (6) inquiries, (7) observation of live animal (8),observation in shelters, (9) photo trappingjvideo, (10) predators dietjpelletsjpine cones/nuts, (11) scatjtrackjditch, (12) telemetry and (13) vocalizationjecholocation. The spatial uncertainty of most records ranges between 0 and100 m (76%). Rodentia (n=31,573) has the highest number of records followedby Chiroptera (n=18,857), Carnivora (n=18,594), Lagomorpha (n=17,496),Cetartiodactyla (n=11,568) and Eulipotyphla (n=7008). The data setincludes records of species classified by the IUCN as threatened(e.g.,Oryctolagus cuniculus[n=12,159],Monachus monachus[n=1,512],andLynx pardinus[n=197]). We believe that this data set may stimulate thepublication of other European countries data sets that would certainly contrib-ute to ecology and conservation-related research, and therefore assisting onthe development of more accurate and tailored conservation managementstrategies for each species.

Mammals in Portugal: a data set of terrestrial, volant, and marine mammal occurrences in Portugal

Mammals are threatened worldwide, with ~26% of all species being included in the IUCN threatened categories. This overall pattern is primarily associated with habitat loss or degradation, and human persecution for terrestrial mammals, and pollution, open net fishing, climate change, and prey depletion for marine mammals.

Characterisation of microbial attack on archaeological bone

As part of an EU funded project to investigate the factors influencing bone preservation in the archaeological record, more than 250 bones from 41 archaeological sites in five countries spanning four climatic regions were studied for diagenetic alteration. Sites were selected to cover a range of environmental conditions and archaeological contexts. Microscopic and physical (mercury intrusion porosimetry) analyses of these bones revealed that the majority (68%) had suffered microbial attack. Furthermore, significant differences were found between animal and human bone in both the state of preservation and the type of microbial attack present. These differences in preservation might result from differences in early taphonomy of the bones. © 2003 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved
