“…This category includes such factors as perceived career barriers (Swanson, Daniels, & Tokar, 1996), dysfunctional career thoughts (Sampson, Peterson, Lenz, Reardon, & Saunders, 1998) or career uncertainty (Orndorff & Herr, 1996;Ito & Brotheridge, 2001), to name just a few. This study focuses on career uncertainty, as this variable is the most person-centred.…”

Abstract. Background. The aim of this study is to analyse the determinants of the occurrence of qualitative and quantitative job insecurity. It focuses on three career variables (employability, career exploration, and career uncertainty) and the way they contribute to individual reactions (defined as financial and social strain) to job insecurity. In addition, it takes into account the contextual factors, such as sector and organizational change in explaining how job insecurity is perceived and responded to.Methods. An online survey was carried out in a sample of 205 respondents employed in various Lithuanian organizations. They filled out a questionnaire which included measures of job insecurity, career attitudes, and financial/social strain. The data were analysed in the full sample, as well as in four subsamples that were split regarding two parameters (public vs. private sector; no recent organizational change reported vs. recent organizational change reported). Results and conclusion. The hierarchical regression analysis showed job insecurity to be strongly related to financial and social strain. However, it draws a slight distinction between qualitative and quantitative job insecurity as predictors of strain. Furthermore, a moderator analysis has revealed several moderating effects of career variables in the relationship between job insecurity and financial/social strain. Finally, it was found that organizational change and type of sector may play a role in determining the interplay between career factors, job insecurity and strain, as job insecurity effects were quite different across different subsamples. To generalize, this study emphasizes the importance of understanding how personal variables, such as career attitudes and beliefs, might change the subjective experience of job insecurity in objectively different contexts.

“…Swanson, Daniels y Tokar (1996), identificaron barreras como: discriminación sexual, falta de confianza, conflicto de rol, conflicto entre los hijos y las exigencia profesionales, discriminación racial, dificultades en la toma de decisiones, falta de modelos o mentores, entre otras. En esta línea Cardoso y Marques (2008) coinciden en la existencia de barreras socioeconómicas, étnicas o raciales y de género.…”

ResumenEste artículo analiza las percepciones de las mujeres que cursan carreras mineras en la educación superior en Chile, sobre la proyección laboral y las condiciones de empleabilidad que ofrece el sector minero. A través de un estudio descriptivo, comparativo y una metodología cualitativa, basada en 59 entrevistas a mujeres estudiantes de carreras mineras, se analizaron las motivaciones, visiones y expectativas laborales en la industria. Los resultados evidencian las tensiones que perciben las jóvenes desde el inicio hasta el término de su formación profesional, por la hegemonía masculina del rubro, la incertidumbre por compatibilizar la maternidad y el trabajo, y la inequidad que perciben entre los años que estudian y los obstáculos laborales que enfrentan. La implicancia del estudio es abordar la formación de género desde la educación superior y con ello mejorar la proyección laboral de las mujeres en mercados laborales masculinos, cuestión pendiente tanto a nivel nacional como latinoamericano. Palabras clave: proyección laboral; género; carreras mineras; educación superior; mujeres estudiantes Employment Projection of Women Students in Mining Courses in the Chilean Higher Education System Abstract:This article analyzes the perceptions of higher education female students enrolled in mining courses in Chile about their employment expectation and employment conditions offered by the mining industry. The motivations, visions and employment expectations in the mining industry were analyzed through a descriptive, comparative and qualitative methodology based in 59 interviews with thematic focus to mining courses students. The results show the tensions that female students perceive from the beginning to the end of their courses, due to male hegemony that dominates the industry, the uncertainty to combine motherhood and work, the inequity perceived and the labor obstacles they face. The implication of the study is to address gender training from higher education and thereby improve labor projection of women in male labor markets. This aspect is a pending task at both national and Latin American level.

“…Lent et al (2000) les considèrent comme des «attentes de résultats» centrées sur les processus d'action (process expectations). 10 De nombreux obstacles ont été considérés (Lent et al, 2002;Luzzo & McWhirter, 2001;McWhirter, Torres & Rasheed, 1998;Swanson, Daniels & Tokar, 1996;Wanberg et al, 1999) que nous classons pour simplifier dans trois domaines: le marché de l'emploi, la vie personnelle et familiale et l'environnement social (par exemple, les représentations sociales des métiers en lien avec le genre).…”
