Resumo: Workers’ happiness is a determining factor of their short- and long-term efficiency. Several scholars have attempted to develop happiness measurement frameworks. The present work analyzes the validity of a scale proposed by Del Junco, Espasandín, Dutschke, and Palacios (2013) in which factors determining worker happiness are elucidated and examined. The work provides a guide for validating scales using a structural and confirmatory approach on the basis of data derived from 262 companies in the province of Seville (Spain). The scale examines two dimensions—factors related to the job and factors related tothe worker—that confirm the need to combine both individual and environmental perspectives when analyzing worker happiness.

En la literatura encontramos intentos de medir dicha felicidad directamente, y otros centrados en conocer cuáles son los elementos que generan esta felicidad. El presente trabajo realiza el análisis de validez de una escala propuesta por Del Junco, Espasandín, Dutschke y Palacios (2013) en la que se exponen factores determinantes de la felicidad del trabajador. El trabajo aporta una guía para la validación de escalas con un enfoque estructural y confirmatorio, basada en los datos de 262 empresas de la provincia de Sevilla(España). Asimismo, la escala muestra dos dimensiones (factores relacionados con el puesto de trabajo y factores relacionados con el trabajador) que confirman la necesidad de combinar la perspectiva del individuo y del entorno a la hora de analizar la felicidad laboral.RAE - Revista de Administracao de Empresas RAE - Revista de Administração de EmpresasRAE-Revista de Administração de Empresas2019-10-11info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://bibliotecadigital.fgv.br/ojs/index.php/rae/article/view/8035310.1590/S0034-75902019050RAE - Revista de Administracao de Empresas ; Vol. 59 No. 5 (2019): setembro-outubro; 327-340RAE - Revista de Administração de Empresas; Vol. 59 Núm. 5 (2019): setembro-outubro; 327-340RAE-Revista de Administração de Empresas; v. 59 n. 5 (2019): setembro-outubro; 327-3402178-938X0034-7590reponame:Revista de Administração de Empresasinstname:Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)instacron:FGVporenghttps://bibliotecadigital.fgv.br/ojs/index.php/rae/article/view/80353/76760https://bibliotecadigital.fgv.br/ojs/index.php/rae/article/view/80353/76761Copyright (c) 2019 RAE-Revista de Administração de Empresasinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessRamirez-Garcia, Carolinade Perea, Juan García-ÁlvarezGarcia-Del Junco, Julio2020-02-28T19:24:05Zoai:bibliotecadigital.fgv.br:article/80353Revistahttps://rae.fgv.br/raeONGhttps://old.scielo.br/oai/scielo-oai.phprae@fgv.br||ilda.fontes@fgv.br||raeredacao@fgv.br2178-938X0034-7590opendoar:2020-02-28T19:24:05Revista de Administração de Empresas - Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)false
