Resumo: Research on workers’ proactive behaviors has increased in recent years, emphasizing the need for a more active workforce. In this context, research has been carried out on idiosyncratic deals (i-deals), that is, individualized work arrangements that employees negotiate with their employers about aspects that are mutually beneficial. Because this research topic focuses on individuals’ actions, most of the studies analyzing its antecedents examine individual characteristics. However, group and organizational characteristics have been suggested to play a role. The aim of the present paper is to analyze the interplay between individual and group level factors in the development of i-deals. More specifically, we consider the role of psychological capital and justice climate in the development of i-deals. A total of 520 employees working in 83 work-units in Spain participated in a panel study. A cross-level approach was adopted to analyze the relationships among psychological capital (psycap), justice climate and i-deals. The results revealed group differences in the enactment of i-deals.  Individual and group level factors showed a significant positive relationship with i-deals. After controlling for individual characteristics, Justice Climate still added predictive power.

No espectro do comportamento proativo, os acordos idiossincráticos (i-deals) foram desenvolvidos, isto é, acordos de trabalho individualizados que os funcionários negociam com os seus empregadores em aspectos que são benéficos para ambos. Como esse tópico de investigação está centrado nas ações dos indivíduos, a maioria dos estudos que analisa os seus antecedentes é focada em características individuais. No entanto, sugere-se que as características organizacionais e de grupo também desempenhem um papel relevante. Assim, o objetivo do presente artigo é analisar a interação entre fatores individuais e grupais no desenvolvimento de i-deals relacionados com as práticas de recursos humanos. Mais especificamente, incluiu-se o papel do capital psicológico (psycap) e do clima de justiça no seu desenvolvimento. Os dados foram recolhidos junto de 520 funcionários que trabalham em 83 unidades de trabalho em Espanha. Foi adotada uma abordagem cross-level para analisar a relação entre PsyCap e Justice Climate e os acordos i-deal. Os resultados mostraram que as variáveis individuais e grupais apresentaram relações positivas significativas estabelecidas com os i-deals. Depois de controlar as características individuais, o JC ainda acrescentou poder preditivo.Imprensa da Universidade de Coimbra2019-07-31info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.14195/1647-8606_62-1_10https://doi.org/10.14195/1647-8606_62-1_10Psychologica; Vol. 62 No. 1 (2019); 187-205Psychologica; Vol. 62 N.º 1 (2019); 187-2051647-86060871-465710.14195/1647-8606_62-1reponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAPenghttps://impactum-journals.uc.pt/psychologica/article/view/1647-8606_62-1_10https://impactum-journals.uc.pt/psychologica/article/view/1647-8606_62-1_10/5527Knering, AriannaTordera, NúriaVillajos, EstherLatorre, FelisaPérez-Nebra, Amaliainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2023-05-31T13:59:44Zoai:impactum-journals.uc.pt:article/7013Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T17:58:18.836810Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
