Resumen
ZAPATA ALBAN, María del Pilar et al. Quality of work life in employees of a Security and Surveillance area of a southwest colombian university. Med. segur. trab. [online]. 2017, vol.63, n.248, pp.235-244. ISSN 1989-7790.
Objective:
To evaluate the perception of the Quality of Work Life (QWL) of employees who work in the Security and Surveillance area of a Southwest Colombian University.
Methods and Materials:
Quantitative, descriptive and cross-sectional study. The sample consists of 122 people from a population of 137. A questionnaire of social and labor data composed of 19 items was applied and the CVT-GOHISALO instrument, which consists of 74 items and measures the QWL in seven dimensions.
Results:
Of the seven dimensions evaluated, security and surveillance workers perceive that the employment stability dimension contributes positively to the QWL. Institutional support, job satisfaction, well-being condition achieved through work and job integration dimensions, contribute moderately to a positive QWL perception, while worker personal development and leisure time administration dimensions scored low contributing negatively to that perception. Finally, the relationship between seniority in the company with the employment stability dimension together with workplace and marital status variables and with the dimensions well-being achieved through work and job satisfaction were identified.
Conclusions:
Workers in the area of security and surveillance show their perceptions of QWL that highlight the intra and extra labor factors in which they are immersed, reflecting a reality of their work environment.
