Psychological detachment from work during off-job time: An integrative study
| Resumo: | Previous studies have perceived psychological detachment from work during off-job time as an important recovery strategy allowing employees to recover from job stressors. Psychological detachment is defined as an individual’s sense of mentally disengaging from work while physically absent from it. Increasing levels of workload contribute to a lack of psychological detachment from work during off-job time. Therefore, this study examines an integrative view of how a moderation of supervisor support, and a mediation of work engagement – which in turn is influenced by indirect sets of effects of moderations of emotion regulation and neuroticism – help predict psychological detachment. In addition, we examine the outcome of burnout from employees’ ability to psychologically detach from work. We tested our hypotheses in a cross-sectional study with a sample of 546 employees from a public service organization. Multiple regression analysis showed that workload, supervisor support, and work engagement were significant predictors of psychological detachment. Additionally, psychological detachment from work is significant to explain employee’s burnout and it decreases in the presence of high levels of work engagement. Moreover, concerning practical implications, it is crucial to provide adequate supervisor support, carefully understand if it is imperative to reduce or increase work engagement, and promote interventions that facilitate employees’ detachment from work. |

| dc.description.none.fl_str_mv | Estudos anteriores defendem o distanciamento psicológico como uma importante estratégia de recuperação, permitindo aos colaboradores recuperar de fatores indutivos de stress no trabalho. O distanciamento psicológico é definido como a capacidade de um indivíduo se desvincular mentalmente do trabalho enquanto fisicamente ausente do mesmo, com a particularidade de que o aumento da carga de trabalho dificulta o distanciamento psicológico. Neste sentido, o presente estudo examina uma visão que integra os efeitos de uma moderação de suporte do supervisor e uma mediação de work engagement. Esta mediação, por sua vez, é influenciada por conjuntos de efeitos indiretos de moderações de regulação emocional e neuroticismo, no distanciamento psicológico de um colaborador. Foi ainda examinado o burnout como resultado do distanciamento psicológico do trabalho. As hipóteses foram testadas num estudo transversal, com uma amostra de 546 colaboradores de uma organização de serviço público. A análise de múltiplas regressões mostrou que a carga de trabalho, o suporte do supervisor e work engagement são preditores significativos do distanciamento psicológico. Adicionalmente, o distanciamento psicológico é significativo na explicação do burnout nos colaboradores e diminui perante níveis elevados de work engagement. Por fim, no que diz respeito às implicações práticas, é crucial fornecer suporte adequado do supervisor, entender se se deve reduzir ou aumentar work engagement, e promover intervenções que facilitem o distanciamento dos colaboradores do trabalho. |
