Comprometimento organizacional: um estudo no Tribunal de Justiça do Estado de Minas Gerais

Abstract

O objetivo deste estudo foi descrever e analisar como se encontra configurado o comprometimento organizacional dos servidores do Fórum Lafayette, Belo Horizonte (MG), em face das dificuldades enfrentadas pela organização diante da substituição e diminuição do quadro funcional, fruto do cumprimento de dispositivos legais. O modelo analítico adotado foi a abordagem multidimensional de Meyer e Allen (1991). A pesquisa empírica se caracteriza como de campo, descritiva, com abordagens quantitativa e qualitativa. Como técnicas de coleta de dados foram utilizados: levantamento documental (dados secundários que foram analisados por meio de análise documental), questionários (dados primários tabulados estatisticamente, de forma uni e bivariada) e entrevistas (dados primários analisados por meio das técnicas de análise de conteúdo), caracterizando uma triangulação entremétodos. Observaram-se fragilidades no que tange ao comprometimento dos servidores abor-

Organizational Commitment: Longitudinal Study in a Public Higher Education Organization

“…Considering the percentage of respondents by levels of impairment ("strong" means above 3.5, "average" means between 2.5 and 3.4, and "weak" means below 2.4), in agreement with other studies on impairment (Botelho & Paiva, 2010;Paiva, La Falce, & De Muylder, 2013), the results shown in Table 3 division in the strong and average levels (44,1 and 43,2, respectively) is perceived. This reduction in the level of commitment may be related to the respondents' profile, but also to the change of leadership in 2013 and reflected here in the data.…”

“…In the studies found, most of the diagnoses of organizational impairment were carried out in several organizations (Schmidt & Pinheiro, 2003;Moraes & Costa, 2007;Yoshitake, Fraga, Torres, & Passos, 2009;Botelho & Paiva, 2010;Roman, Stefano, Andrade, & Zampier, 2012;Paiva, La Falce, &De Muylder, 2013 andSoares &Fleck, 2014). It is interesting to note that such diagnostic studies were carried out in both public and private organizations, with the Meyer, Allen, and Smith (1993) model prevailing, attesting its applicability in national studies.…”

“…Paiva, La Falce and De Muylder (2013) emphasize that commitment can be approached in several foci, such as organizational links, types of work, values, culture, among others. Sociological and behavioral approaches are still found in the literature, much less adopted in these studies (Botelho & Paiva, 2010).…”

“…It is interesting to note that such diagnostic studies were carried out in both public and private organizations, with the Meyer, Allen, and Smith (1993) model prevailing, attesting its applicability in national studies. In addition, the studies of Botelho and Paiva (2010) and Paiva, La Falce, and De Muylder (2013), who applied the model in public organizations, obtained results that were antagonistic to those of Roman, Stefano, Andrade, and Zampier (2012): in the first studies, calculative impairment was evidenced in public organizations, and in the latter, effective commitment was more evident. In addition, the need for other investigations on commitment in public organizations was indicated to understand the peculiarities of the phenomenon in such context better.…”

“…The studies deal with construct diagnoses in organizations (Schmidt & Pinheiro, 2003;Moraes & Costa, 2007;Yoshitake, Fraga, Torres, & Passos, 2009;Botelho & Paiva, 2010;Roman, Stefano, Andrade, & Zampier, 2012;Paiva, La Falce, & de Muylder, 2013;Soares & Fleck, 2014), investigations of construct relationship with consumer behavior and marketing strategies (Prado & Santos, 2007;Ferreira & HorMeyll, 2012;Alves, Terris, & Santos, 2013), relationship with leadership (Bergamini, 2002;Marques, Medeiros, França, & Ribeiro, 2007;Maciel & Nascimento, 2012;Zanini, Santos, & Lima, 2015, Thatcher, Stepina, & Boyle, 2002Riggle, Edmondson, & Hansen, 2009), the relationship with organizational learning (Varga, Birrer, & Minello, 2012;Caprioli & Araújo, 2016), relationship with organizational performance (Valadares, Lima, 2007, Thatcher, Stepina, & Boyle, 2002Riggle, Edmondson & Silva, 2009;Scheible & Bastos, 2007;Reis Neto, Kilimnik, Melo, & Theotônio, 2012), among other connections.…”
