          Abstract

          «Job crafting and well-being at work: an exploratory analysis during health emergency period».

          Introduction:

          During the health emergency in 2020, in order not to interrupt production processes and at the same time to protect the health of citizens and workers, alternative working methods were adopted different from the traditional ones, to which workers were directed without any previous notice or specific training.

          Aims:

          The purpose of the research is to explore the relationships between meaning of work, job crafting and emotional exhaustion during the first month of lockdown in the Italian territory. The study therefore aims to identify possible strengthening factors related to working well-being.

          Methods:

          The different constructs were detected through an online questionnaire from 11 March to 2 April 2020, involving 405 subjects. After verifying the reliability of the constructs, a mediation model was performed using nonparametric structural equations (PLS-SEM).

          Results:

          Model’s constructs show adequate reliabilities. The study highlights the total mediation of job crafting in the relationship between the meaning of work and emotional exhaustion. In particular, the regression relationship between meaning of work and emotional exhaustion is equal to c’=-0.04, p=0.480. On the contrary, the relationship between the meaning of work and job crafting is a=0.44 (p<0.001), and the one between job crafting and emotional exhaustion is b=-0.14, p=0.014.

          Conclusions:

          The results suggest that job crafting can be considered a factor able to buffer workers’ emotional exhaustion and can guide new lines of intervention, in particular in relation to post-emergency reactivation.

          Introduzione:

          Nel corso dell’emergenza sanitaria del 2020, per non interrompere i processi produttivi e al contempo tutelare la salute dei cittadini e dei lavoratori, sono state adottate modalità di lavoro alternative a quella tradizionale, verso cui i lavoratori sono stati indirizzati senza alcun preavviso o formazione specifica.

          Obiettivi:

          La ricerca si propone di esplorare le relazioni tra significato del lavoro, job crafting ed esaurimento emotivo intercorse nel primo mese di lockdown sul territorio italiano. Lo studio intende quindi individuare eventuali fattori di potenziamento del benessere lavorativo.

          Metodi:

          La raccolta dati è avvenuta tramite un questionario online dall11 Marzo al 2 Aprile 2020, coinvolgendo 405 soggetti. Dopo la verifica dell’attendibilità dei costrutti, è stato calcolato un modello di mediazione tramite Equazioni Strutturali non parametriche (PLS-SEM).

          Risultati:

          I costrutti del modello ipotizzato presentano un’adeguata attendibilità. Lo studio evidenzia la mediazione totale del job crafting nella relazione tra significato del lavoro ed esaurimento emotivo. La relazione di regressione tra significato del lavoro ed esaurimento emotivo è pari a c’=-0.04, p=0.480. Al contrario, la relazione tra significato del lavoro e job crafting risulta a=0.44 (p=0.000), così come quella tra job crafting ed esaurimento emotivo, pari a b=-0.14, p.value=0.014.

          Conclusioni:

          I risultati suggeriscono che il job crafting può essere considerato un fattore in grado di attenuare l’esaurimento emotivo dei lavoratori e può orientare nuove linee di intervento, in particolare in relazione a una riattivazione post-emergenza.

          The psychological impact of quarantine and how to reduce it: rapid review of the evidence

          Summary The December, 2019 coronavirus disease outbreak has seen many countries ask people who have potentially come into contact with the infection to isolate themselves at home or in a dedicated quarantine facility. Decisions on how to apply quarantine should be based on the best available evidence. We did a Review of the psychological impact of quarantine using three electronic databases. Of 3166 papers found, 24 are included in this Review. Most reviewed studies reported negative psychological effects including post-traumatic stress symptoms, confusion, and anger. Stressors included longer quarantine duration, infection fears, frustration, boredom, inadequate supplies, inadequate information, financial loss, and stigma. Some researchers have suggested long-lasting effects. In situations where quarantine is deemed necessary, officials should quarantine individuals for no longer than required, provide clear rationale for quarantine and information about protocols, and ensure sufficient supplies are provided. Appeals to altruism by reminding the public about the benefits of quarantine to wider society can be favourable.
