ResumoNovas confi gurações no mundo global imprimem diferentes modifi cações nos processos de trabalho, rotinas e gestão da informação. Entre as novas formas de trabalho surgidas na década de 70 do último século está o home-offi ce, trabalho realizado a partir da própria residência, que tem obtido maior proeminência nos últimos anos. A presente pesquisa visa conhecer aspectos de trabalho e variáveis psicossociais que circundam 74 profi ssionais brasileiros (M=38,2 anos, DP=8,8 anos) que relataram trabalhar ou terem trabalhado em home-offi ce. Participantes responderam um questionário com perguntas abertas, cujas respostas foram analisadas por meio de análise de conteúdo e de frequência. Como resultados verifi cou-se que 62 participantes atuavam em home-offi ce no momento da pesquisa, sendo a principal vantagem citada deste sistema de trabalho a fl exibilidade de horários e a desvantagem mais recorrente a falta de socialização. Foram mencionados problemas em termos profi ssionais e pessoais, como implicações para a saúde e para a vida familiar dos trabalhadores, além de terem sido expostos contrapontos positivos para os mesmos âmbitos. São necessários estudos adicionais para ampliar conhecimentos neste campo, uma vez que se trata de pesquisa inicial no Brasil. Palavras-chave:Trabalho, home-offi ce, autonomia e teletrabalho. Home-Offi ce: Exploratory Aspects of Work from Home AbstractNew global confi gurations produce different modifi cations on work, routine and information management procedures. The home-offi ce, work made from home, is among new work strategies that arose in 1970's, which achieved greater prominence in recent years. This paper aims to understand aspects of work and psychosocial variables surrounding 74 professionals (M= 38.2 e SD= 8.8) that reported to work or have worked in home-offi ce. Participants answered an online questionnaire with open and closed questions, which responses were analyzed with content analysis and frequency. Results show that 62 participants worked from home-offi ce at the moment of the research, being the main advantage of this model of work the fl exibility of hours and the most recurrent disadvantage was the lack of socialization. Participants cited problems in professional and personal terms, such as implications for health and family life and

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine relationships between work organisation, bullying and intention to leave (ITL) in the Australian hospitality industry, using pressure, disorganisation and regulatory failure (PDR) to measure work organisation. Design/methodology/approach Cross-sectional survey data were collected from 72 workers in Australian accommodation hotels. They were aged 20-65 years (M=38.26, SD=12.60) and 57.1 per cent were female. The proposed path model was tested with the Mplus (v.7) statistical package using Hayes’ (2009) procedure for mediation analysis. Findings There were positive bivariate correlations between all variables. The path model indicated that disorganisation and regulatory failure had direct positive associations with bullying. Financial pressure and bullying had direct positive associations with ITL. Research limitations/implications The small sample may not be representative and the cross-sectional design and self-report data risk common method variance effects and preclude attributions of causality. Future studies should use more representative samples and longitudinal designs to address common method variance issues and facilitate causal inferences. Originality/value Bullying and turnover are significant problems in the hospitality industry, but the contribution of work organisation variables is poorly understood. The present study provides promising preliminary evidence on the potential role of PDR as an antecedent of both bullying and ITL.

ResumoA aposentadoria é um tema em ascendência no Brasil, impulsionada por fatores demográficos, socioeconômicos e previdenciá-rios. O processo da aposentadoria admite como primeira etapa a formação de percepções sobre a futura transição. O objetivo deste trabalho foi desenvolver e apresentar evidências de validade da Escala de Percepção de Futuro da Aposentadoria (EPFA). Foram realizados procedimentos de construção, validade de constructo e conteúdo, seguidos análise fatorial exploratória e confirmatória, além de correlações e comparações com variáveis demográficas. Participaram da pesquisa 982 trabalhadores, maioria do sexo masculino (65,1%, N = 640), com idade média de 40,1 anos (DP = 10,5 anos). Os resultados das aferições psicomé-tricas confirmam a estrutura de cinco dimensões esperada, com subscalas de Percepções de Saúde, Desligamento do Trabalho, Finanças, Relacionamentos Interpessoais e Perdas na Aposentadoria. De forma geral, os resultados apontam que melhores percepções sobre o futuro na aposentadoria relacionaram-se com melhores condições contextuais de vida. São apresentados usos e limitações da medida. Palavras-chave: aposentadoria, desenvolvimento de medida, carreira, escala psicométrica Development of the Perceptions of Future Retirement Scale (PFRS) and Psychosocial Correlates AbstractRetirement is a field in ascending importance in Brazil due to demographic, socioeconomic and social security factors. The retirement process states as its first stage the perceptions about the transition. This paper aimed to develop and validate the Perceptions of Future Retirement Scale (PFRS). Development, face and construct validity assessment procedures were performed, followed by exploratory and confirmatory analysis and also comparison and correlation analysis. The participants were 982 workers, mostly male (65.1%, N=640) with mean age of 40.1 years (SD=10.5 years). Results of psychometric measurements confirmed the presumed 5 factors structure, with subscales of Health Perception, Detachment from Work, Finances, Interpersonal Relationships and Losses in Retirement. In general, results show better perceptions to be related to better contextual conditions of life. Uses and limitations of PFRS are presented.

A temática do planejamento da aposentadoria tem crescido em importância com o aumento da expectativa de vida e a previsão de déficit previdenciário no Brasil. A fim de fornecer instrumentos que possibilitem a avaliação de aspectos preparatórios para a aposentadoria, este artigo teve como objetivos: (a) adaptar a Process of Retirement Planning Scale (PRePS) para o português brasileiro e (b) verificar a influência de estilos de tomada de decisão no planejamento da aposentadoria. Participaram do estudo 1.290 trabalhadores com idades entre 18 e 69 anos (M=37,06; DP=10,5), sendo a maioria homens (N=944; 73,3%). A versão brasileira da PRePS foi chamada de Escala de Processo de Planejamento da Aposentadoria (EPPlA), e os resultados mostraram que o estilo de tomada de decisão racional influencia positiva e significativamente os quatro âmbitos do planejamento da aposentadoria: saúde, finanças, estilo de vida e psicossocial. Os estilos dependente, intuitivo, espontâneo e evitativo também se mostraram preditores significativos em diferentes dimensões. Palavras-chave: Planejamento da aposentadoria; tomada de decisão; escalas psicológicas.Retirement planning has grown in importance with the rising life expectancy and the forecasted social security deficit in Brazil.

Retirement research is now expanding beyond the post-World War II baby boomers' retirement attitudes and plans to include the nature of their workforce exit and how successfully they adjust to their new life. These elements are collectively known as the process of retirement. However, there is insufficient research in developing countries to inform the management of their ageing populations regarding this process. This review aims to facilitate national and cross-cultural research in developing and non-English speaking countries by reviewing the existing measures of the retirement process published in English and Portuguese. The review identified 28 existing measures assessing retirement attitudes, planning, decision making, adjustment and satisfaction with retirement. Information on each scale's item structure, internal reliability, grammatical structure and evidence of translations to other languages is presented. Of the 28 measures, 20 assessed retirement attitudes, plans and decision-making, 5 assessed adjustment to retirement and only two assessed retirement satisfaction. Only eight of the 28 scales had been translated into languages other than English. There is scope to translate measures of retirement attitudes and planning into other languages. However there is a paucity of translated measures of retirement decision-making and adjustment, and measures of retirement satisfaction in general. Within the limitations of this review, researchers are provided with the background to decide between translating existing measures or developing of more culturally appropriate assessment tools for addressing their research questions.
