Artrepreneurs and the autonomy paradox

2022

In this article, we examine the views that young (under 35 years) freelancers and entrepreneurs who work as professional artists in Finland have of their work. We refer to them as artrepreneurs. Our data sample is composed of the responses of entrepreneurs and freelancers (n = 209) from a survey data on young artists (n = 565) collected in 2017. By using a set of quantitative methods we study the impact of different factors on the job satisfaction experienced by freelancers and entrepreneurs, the nature and motivation factors of their work, as well as their status and livelihood. In our interpretative framework, central concepts are the “hybridity” and “precarity” of artists’ work and “auto…

Is Finland Different? Quality of Work Among Finnish and European Employees

2010

The issue of the quality of work-life has risen in popularity due to concerns about the economic and social sustainability of European societies. Throughout the continent, global competition, technological change and the intensification of work are common developments which are seen to affect the well-being of the workforce. Nevertheless, European countries differ substantially in terms of job quality. According to earlier research, employees in Sweden and Denmark (and to lesser extent in Finland) report a higher quality of work tasks than elsewhere in Europe. The aim of this paper was to investigate, in a cross-national context using multivariate techniques, whether job quality in Finland …

Does job design make workers happy?

2019

Using linked employer‐employee data for Finland we examine associations between job design, employee well‐being and job‐related stress. Three key findings stand out. First, in accordance with the theory of Karasek and Karasek and Theorell, job control and supervisory support are positively correlated with employee well‐being and negatively correlated with job‐related stress. Second, as predicted by theory, job demands are positively correlated with job‐related stress. Third, there is no association between job demands and employee well‐being and, contrary to expectations, neither job control nor supervisory support alleviate the negative relationship between job demands and job‐related stre…

Associations between observed patterns of classroom interactions and teacher wellbeing in lower secondary school

2019

Classroom observations and teacher self-reports were used to examine the relationships between patterns of teacherestudent interactions and the wellbeing of Norwegian lower secondary school teachers. Latent profile analysis identified four subgroups. Teacherestudent interactions and the teachers' wellbeing were inter-related in that teachers who were observed to be high in all the interaction domains (Emotional Support, Classroom Organization, and Instructional Support) perceived themselves as having high job satisfaction. The results showed that improving teachers’ wellbeing has the potential to improve teacherestudent interactions and vice versa. The study also discusses the use of classr…

"Että jos sä tykkäät ja nautit sun työstäs niin, kyllä se vain näkyy" : esikoulunopettajien ja ensimmäisen luokan luokanopettajien käsityksiä työtyyt…

2015

Tässä tutkimuksessa tutkin, millaisia käsityksiä esikoulunopettajilla ja ensimmäisen luokan luokanopettajilla on työtyytyväisyyden rakentumisesta. Tutkimuksen tuloksista ja johtopäätöksistä on hyötyä opettajankoulutuslaitokselle ja kentän työntekijöille. Tutkimukseni tuloksista on nähtävissä opettajien työtyytyväisyyden rakentumisen monimuotoisuus. Tutkimukseni on laadullinen ja tutkimusotteeni fenomenografinen. Keräsin tutkimukseni aineiston keväällä 2014 yksilöhaastatteluin eräästä suomalaisesta kaupungista. Haastattelin kahta ensimmäisen luokan luokanopettajaa, kahta päiväkodissa työskentelevää esikoulunopettajaa ja kolmea koulussa toimivaa esikoulunopettajaa. Analysoin tutkimukseni aine…

Suomalaisten liikunnanopettajien urakehitys ja työtyytyväisyys

2013

Nykypäivänä työurat ovat monipuolistuneet ja tämä näkyy myös opettajien keskuudessa. Opettajien siirtyminen pois varsinaisesta opetustehtävästä on yleistynyt ja näin opettajaksi kouluttautuneiden työurat ovat ainakin osittain muuttumassa. Myös liikunnanopettajat ovat jo pitkään olleet paitsi opetustaitojensa myös liikunnallisten taitojensa vuoksi haluttua työvoimaa muuallakin kuin koulumaailmassa. Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli selvittää liikunnanopettajaksi valmistuneiden nykyistä työnkuvaa ja ammatinvaihtoon vaikuttaneita tekijöitä. Kohderyhmänä olivat vuosina 1980–2008 valmistuneet liikunnanopettajat (N=1430). Tutkimuksen mukaan liikunnanopettajaksi valmistuneista 23 prosenttia oli …

Development of Teachers’ Emotional Adjustment Performance Regarding Their Perception of Emotional Experience and Job Satisfaction During Regular Scho…

2021

Starting with the COVID-19 pandemic, research intensively investigated the effects of school lockdowns on involved stakeholders, such as teachers, students and parents. However, as research projects had to be hurriedly conducted, in-depth and longitudinal studies are lacking. Therefore, the current study uses data from a longitudinal study to investigate the well-being of Austrian in-service teachers during the COVID-19 pandemic. In total 256 teachers took part at both measurement waves and participated in an online survey. Standardized questionnaires were used to assess teachers’ perception of emotional experiences and job satisfaction before COVID-19 (retrospective, t1), during the first …

Meaningfulness in the work of language professionals

2022

This qualitative study explores the changes that a specific group of knowledge workers – language professionals in Finland – have undergone in their work and how they perceive the meaningfulness of their work as a result. The data presented in this article has been collected through group interviews and is part of a larger data set. To make sense of our data, we use thematic analysis and the framework of meaningful work presented by Rosso et al. For some of our research participants, the factors of meaningful work are present. For others, changes in work, such as platform work and outsourcing, have reduced autonomy and development possibilities. We conclude by discussing the implications of…
