Determinantes multidimensionales en la calidad percibida del empleo. Evidencia empírica para España

Abstract

Through a representative sample of 8.755 employees in 2010, and using a structural equations model (SEM), this article analyzes empirically the multidimensional determinants (direct effects) of the perceived work quality in Spain. The research concludes that the perceived work quality combines a broad set of explanatory dimensions that are linked with de workplace itself (intrinsic work quality, organization, access and inclusion, and compensations), but also with their environment and labor relations (social relations, work intensity, skills and training, and health and safety). Therefore, the public employment policies for ending the economic crisis should not only address the quality or workplace, but also meet the dimensions related to their environment and labor relations.
