Resumo: Given the growing importance of remote working and the challenges associated with it, this cross-sectional study (N = 175) aims to shed light on how organisational trust in remote work will impact employees work engagement. Therefore it is hypothesised that organisational trust specific to remote work is positively related to vigor, dedication and absorption. The results demonstrate, a positive and significant relationship between organisational trust in remote work and the three dimensions of work engagement. In addition, it was predicted that three job demands, e-mail incivility, e-mail overload and e-mail intensity will moderate the relationship between organisational trust and vigor, dedication and absorption. The job demands-resources model was used to justify this moderation concept. However, the results showed that only e-mail incivility and e-mail intensity moderate the relationship between organisational trust and absorption, such that the positive effect of organisational trust on absorption is stronger when e-mail incivility and e-mail intensity are high. Besides these findings, theoretical contributions, practical implications and further suggestions for future research will be explored.

Por conseguinte, testou-se a hipótese de que a confiança organizacional no trabalho remoto esteja positivamente relacionada com o vigor, dedicação e absorção. Os resultados demonstram, uma relação positiva e significativa entre a confiança organizacional no trabalho remoto e as três dimensões do engagement no trabalho. Além disso, previa-se que três exigências do trabalho, incivilidade no email, sobrecarga do email e intensidade do email moderariam a relação entre a confiança organizacional e vigor, dedicação e absorção. O modelo das exigências de trabalho-recursos foi utilizado para justificar esta proposta de moderação. Contudo, os resultados mostraram que apenas a incivilidade e a intensidade do email moderam a relação entre a confiança organizacional e a absorção, de tal forma que o efeito positivo da confiança organizacional na absorção é mais forte quando a incivilidade e a intensidade do email são elevadas. Além destes resultados, serão exploradas contribuições teóricas, implicações práticas e outras sugestões para investigação futura.2022-01-03T15:44:49Z2021-12-20T00:00:00Z2021-12-202021-11info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10071/23889TID:202830713engMoll, Carina Elenainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-11-09T17:58:54Zoai:repositorio.iscte-iul.pt:10071/23889Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T22:30:45.196111Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
