Abstract

RUEDA, Fabián Javier Marín; SERENINI, Antonio Luiz Prado  and  MEIRELES, Everson. Relationship between Quality of Work Life and Trust employee in the organization. Rev. Psicol., Organ. Trab. [online]. 2014, vol.14, n.3, pp. 303-314. ISSN 1984-6657.

This study evaluates the relationships between the constructs quality of life at work and trust in the organization. The study included 264 workers, who answered two psychometric instruments: the Rating Scale of Quality of Life at Work - QWL-Scale (Rueda, 2013) and the Scale of Employee Confidence in the Organization - ECEO (Oliveira & Tamayo, 2008). Data was analyzed using confirmatory factor analysis in structural equation modeling. There was demonstrated evidence of convergent validity for the measurement model of both instruments separately. The relationships between the two constructs were investigated in a model of covariance between the factors of the two instruments. The correlations between latent factors of the QWL-Scale and the ECEO indicated a strong association between the constructs, such that, in some of the factors of the QWL-Scale and the ECEO, the constructs assessed are virtually the same.

Keywords : quality of life at work; employee trust in the organization; validity evidence.
