This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ce mémoire élaboré dans le cadre d'une étude plus vaste sur la santé mentale au travail étudie l'effet de la culture organisationnelle ainsi que certains facteurs du travail comme la supervision abusive, la latitude décisionnelle, l'utilisation des compétences, l'autorité décisionnelle, les demandes psychologiques, le soutien social ainsi que l'horaire de travail sur l'épuisement professionnel et ses trois dimensions. Ces facteurs, à l'exception de la culture organisationnelle ont fait l'objet d'études approfondies dans le passé. Ce mémoire se base sur un modèle connu et régulièrement utilisé mesurant l'effet de ces facteurs du travail sur la santé mentale. Ce modèle est communément appelé le modèle demandes-contrôle de Karasek. L'échantillon à l'étude est constitué de 384 policiers et travailleurs cols blancs travaillant pour le service de police de la Ville de Montréal. La récolte des données à été effectuée en 2008 et 2009. Ce mémoire confirme en partie les résultats fréquemment observés dans les études sur le sujet. La supervision abusive, les demandes psychologiques et certains types de culture augmentent le niveau d'épuisement professionnel. D'autres variables comme la latitude décisionnelle et certains autres types de culture organisationnelle réduisent le niveau d'épuisement professionnel.
Download or read book Impact de la culture organisationnelle sur l ergomanie written by Jeanne Toison and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'objectif principal de ce mémoire est l'étude de l'influence de la culture organisationnelle sur l'addiction au travail, nommée ici ergomanie. L'ergomanie représente une dépendance au travail qui implique de travailler excessivement et compulsivement. La littérature existante sur le sujet nous a permis de distinguer l'ergomanie menant à l'épuisement professionnel de celle ne menant pas à l'épuisement professionnel. Nous avons élaboré une typologie du profil ergomaniaque qui classe les travailleurs le long de deux continuums : l'axe vertical représente le degré d'ergomanie (on va ici contraster des individus ne présentant aucun signe d'addiction aux individus fortement addictés). L'axe horizontal informe sur le degré d'épuisement professionnel. On trouve ainsi quatre types de travailleurs : les travailleurs détendus, les travailleurs fatigués, les travailleurs présentant une ergomanie non toxique et les les travailleurs présentant une ergomanie toxique. Les données proviennent de l'étude SALVEO menée au Canada par l'Équipe de Recherche sur le Travail et la Santé Mentale (ERTSM). Les données ont été recueillies entre 2009 et 2012 dans 63 milieux de travail selon un taux de réponse de 71.3 %, équivalent à 2162 employés. Nous avons réalisé des analyses descriptives de notre population afin de connaitre les caractéristiques fondamentales de l'ensemble de l'échantillon SALVEO. Dans un second temps, nous avons fait des analyses bivariées pour déterminer l'absence ou la présence d'une relation linéaire significative entre les variables. Enfin, nous avons réalisé des analyses multivariées de nos variables afin d'obtenir les effets nets de nos variables sur le profil ergomaniaque. Ces dernières ont montré que la culture rationnelle s'associe positivement aux travailleurs présentant une ergomanie toxique et, à l'inverse, la culture groupale s'associe négativement aux travailleurs présentant une ergomanie toxique.
Download or read book Burnout for Experts written by Sabine Bährer-Kohler and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-11-11 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wherever people are working, there is some type of stress—and where there is stress, there is the risk of burnout. It is widespread, the subject of numerous studies in the U.S. and abroad. It is also costly, both to individuals in the form of sick days, lost wages, and emotional exhaustion, and to the workplace in terms of the bottom line. But as we are now beginning to understand, burnout is also preventable. Burnout for Experts brings multifaceted analysis to a multilayered problem, offering comprehensive discussion of contributing factors, classic and less widely perceived markers of burnout, coping strategies, and treatment methods. International perspectives consider phase models of burnout and differentiate between burnout and related physical and mental health conditions. By focusing on specific job and life variables including workplace culture and gender aspects, contributors give professionals ample means for recognizing burnout as well as its warning signs. Chapters on prevention and intervention detail effective programs that can be implemented at the individual and organizational levels. Included in the coverage: · History of burnout: a phenomenon. · Personal and external factors contributing to burnout. · Depression and burnout · Assessment tools and methods. · The role of communication in burnout prevention. · Active coping and other intervention strategies. Skillfully balancing scholarship and accessibility, Burnout for Experts is a go-to resource for health psychologists, social workers, psychiatrists, and organizational, industrial, and clinical psychologists.

Download or read book How to Rig an Election written by Nic Cheeseman and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2024-07-23 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An engrossing analysis of the pseudo-democratic methods employed by despots around the world to retain control Contrary to what is commonly believed, authoritarian leaders who agree to hold elections are generally able to remain in power longer than autocrats who refuse to allow the populace to vote. In this engaging and provocative book, Nic Cheeseman and Brian Klaas expose the limitations of national elections as a means of promoting democratization, and reveal the six essential strategies that dictators use to undermine the electoral process in order to guarantee victory for themselves. Based on their firsthand experiences as election watchers and their hundreds of interviews with presidents, prime ministers, diplomats, election officials, and conspirators, Cheeseman and Klaas document instances of election rigging from Argentina to Zimbabwe, including notable examples from Brazil, India, Nigeria, Russia, and the United States—touching on the 2016 election. This eye-opening study offers a sobering overview of corrupted professional politics, while providing fertile intellectual ground for the development of new solutions for protecting democracy from authoritarian subversion.

Download or read book The Myth of International Protection written by Claudia Seymour and published by University of California Press. This book was released on 2019-03-26 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this viscerally intense, ethnographically-based work, Claudia Seymour, a former child protection advisor and human rights investigator for the United Nations, chronicles the heart-wrenching stories of young people in the Democratic Republic of Congo—young people who live on the front lines of conflict, in neighborhoods and villages destroyed by war, and on the streets in conditions of poverty and destitution. Seymour shares her personal journey, one that begins with the will to do good yet ends with the realization of how international aid can contribute to greater harm than good. The idea of protection and universalized human rights is turned on its head as Seymour uncovers the complicities and hypocrisies of the aid world—that in its promotion of “inalienable human rights”, the complex historical and socio-economic dynamics that lead to the violations of such rights are ignored. The Myth of International Protection offers a new perspective to reframe how the world sees the DRC, and urges global audiences to consider their own roles in fueling the DRC’s seemingly endless violence.
