[more ▼] Purpose The new forms of work organization are characterized by different evolutions: multiple workers status, fragmentation of collective work, etc. Among these evolutions, the triangular relationship between worker, employer and contractors and the intervention of contractors in work organization (Marchington et al., 2004) may be particularly affecting the well-being of workers. This research focus on contact center as a new form of work organization to investigate the influence of the triangular employment relationship on well-being at work. Methodology A quantitative and qualitative approach was used. A survey based on Job Demand-Resources Model (Bakker, Demerouti & Schaufeli, 2003) was conducted among 400 operators from Belgian contact centers to compare internal, outsourced and external contact centers. Three case studies allowed exploring more deeply the influence of triangular employment relationship on well-being. Finally, focus-groups with unions and management representatives helped us to design some practical recommendations. Results Quantitative results indicate that operators from outsourced and external contact centers have a poorer perception of demands and resources at work. They are consequently more likely to report high levels of perceived stress and burnout and low satisfaction with their work. The case studies give us more information about the role of the strategy and the management style of contact centers in coping with triangular employment relationships. Limitations Beyond this explorative research, quantitative data can be further used in multi-sample modeling approach. Research/Practical Implications Recommendations for well-being at work regarding the triangular employment relationship, on which both employers and unions converge, will be highlighted at the conference. Originality This research combines organizational psychology and management theory.

[more ▼] Situational judgment tests (SJTs) are testing methods often used in Personnel Selection to appraise different constructs (Whetzel & McDaniel, 2009). In the framework of an overall career progression program in a Public Administration, SJTs were developed to assess several competencies relevant to both task (e.g. planning, managing, etc.) and contextual performance (e.g. helping behaviour, organizational loyalty, etc.). Each competency is a combination of KSAOs needed to perform efficiently in a specific context (Campion & al., 2012; Le Boterf 2008). Given the lack of internal consistency of SJT and the dichotomous nature of the data, we decide to use Multidimensional Item Response Theory (MIRT) model to examine the issue of construct validity. Based on Hartig & Höhler (2009), we use MIRT compensatory model to estimate the latent covariance structures of the SJT. Different model are tested and compared depending on the number of dimension involved, the nature of the items and latent variables relation (between or within-item multidimensionality) and the number of model parameter (one or two parameter model). The results and findings lead us to discuss some implications (gaining accuracy, modeling performance in complex task, etc.) and limitations (dealing with complex loading structure, etc.) of using IRT, over and above classical test theory, in the specific case of SJTs applicants performance. The originality of this communication also lies in the way we addressed SJTs reliability and construct validity issues with a measurement based model that differs from the one usually used in the field.

[more ▼] This study (n = 237 Belgian children; mean age = 12.3 years; SD = 0.41) examined the factor structure, reliability, and validity of the French translation of the Revised Childhood Anxiety Sensitivity Index (CASI-R). We obtained a hierarchical factor structure with four lower-order factors – “fear of cognitive dyscontrol,” “fear of publicly observable anxiety reactions,” “fear of respiratory symptoms,” and “fear of cardiovascular symptoms” – loading on a single higher-order factor (“anxiety sensitivity”). The French translation revealed acceptable internal consistency and a good interitem structure. Anxiety sensitivity was connected with the anxiety and depression scales but the correlation between the CASI-R and the depression score was more modest than that between the CASI-R and the trait anxiety score, indicating that the CASI-R is an anxiety scale. Girls reported more fear of anxious feelings than boys. This revised version allows for a more fine-grained assessment of the anxiety sensitivity concept.

[more ▼] Comme l’atteste l’Institut National de la Santé et de la Recherche Médicale ([INSERM], 2011), il est aujourd’hui devenu nécessaire de pouvoir mieux identifier les sources de stress chez les travailleurs indépendants. Parmi ceux-ci, les dirigeants de Petites et Moyennes Entreprises (PME) sont fréquemment victimes de problèmes de santé liés à une charge physique et mentale élevées (Bournois, Duval-Hamel, Scarengella & Roussillon, 2007 ; Gunnarsson, Vingard & Josephson, 2007). S’appuyant sur ces constats, cette étude a eu pour objectif d’évaluer leur sentiment d’épuisement professionnel et de déterminer les causes de stress spécifiques au milieu entrepreneurial. Pour ce faire, une enquête par questionnaire écrit a été menée à la demande de différentes organisations patronales belges du secteur de la construction et de la vente.

[more ▼] Problématique: De nombreux travaux tendent à considérer l’organisation du travail dans les centres de contact sous les traits d’un taylorisme moderne (Buscatto, 2002; Zapf, Isic, Bechtoldt & Blau, 2003). L'usage de technologies permettant de produire un flux constant d'activités couplé à des dispositifs visant à un contrôle précis des activités a fortement contribué à l'image de nouvelles "télé-usines du tertiaire" et a attiré nombre de critiques. L’objectif de cette étude est d’identifier les risques psychosociaux spécifiques au secteur des centres de contact en Belgique, en déclinant ces risques en fonction de diverses variables liées au contexte (type de centres de contact, type d’activité, etc.) et de proposer des pistes d’amélioration concrètes des conditions de travail vécues par ces opérateurs. Méthodologie: Un questionnaire d’évaluation des risques psychosociaux a été construit sur base d’une revue de la littérature sur le secteur et d’un modèle théorique expliquant le bien-être au travail : le Job Demands-Resources Model (Demoureti, Bakker, Nachreiner & Schaufeli, 2001). Ce questionnaire visait à évaluer les demandes auxquelles les travailleurs sont confrontés ainsi que les ressources disponibles dans ce contexte de travail particulier. L’impact de cet équilibre demandes-ressources sur différentes mesures du vécu au travail a également été évalué par des échelles validées mesurant le stress, la stimulation et des conséquences en termes de bien-être comme l’implication, la satisfaction au travail et l’intention de quitter, notamment. Les données ont été récoltées auprès de 393 opérateurs de centres de contact représentant la diversité de ce secteur (centres de contact externes et internes, couvrant diverses activités et traitant différents types d’appels). Résultats: Les résultats montrent que le stress est important dans les centres de contact mais ils soulignent surtout le faible niveau de stimulation dans ce secteur. Certaines ressources permettent de prédire la stimulation des travailleurs comme les possibilités de développement personnel en termes d’épanouissement dans l’activité et de perspective d’évolution de carrière. Une mauvaise gestion de la relation client et la routine perçue dans le travail sont des contraintes qui par contre, diminuent la stimulation et augmentent le stress perçu. Des différences entre les différents types de centres de contact ont également été mises en évidence. Les opérateurs des centres de contact «outsourcés», réalisant plutôt de la gestion des plaintes et du support technique, rapportent une mauvaise perception de leurs conditions de travail et un mal-être plus important au travail. Le secteur des télécommunications semblent être le secteur d’activité le plus problématique en Belgique. Implications: Cette étude permet de suggérer une série d’actions d’amélioration des conditions de travail qui seront détaillées lors de la conférence.

[more ▼] While e-learning appears to be increasingly present in training and education, the systematic evaluation of its effectiveness remains understudied. In this paper, we determine the mediating role of satisfaction between motivation to train and personal interaction on the one hand, and learning and motivation to transfer, on the other hand. A particularity of this study is that we distinguish between different dimensions of satisfaction - enjoyment, utility, difficulty, and take into account lack of personal interaction as a variable influencing satisfaction. Results of structural equation modelling analyses show an impact of the enjoyment dimension on learning, and of the utility and difficulty dimensions on motivation to transfer. The results also stress the importance of interaction opportunities, as these have an indirect effect on learning and motivation to transfer.
