Full textHuman service workers have a history of working with our neediest populations, and their work often entails long hours, challenging situations, and limited resources. When the focus of the work is on human strengths and positive approaches, more positive results emerge. In order to determine the process of how human services workers maintain a positive perspective in their work, 15 human service workers from a diverse spectrum were interviewed. A narrative analysis was applied to elicit the participants' insights, revealing common themes and strategies. The findings indicated that having a fundamental belief in human potential, seeing the client's positive attributes, and having inherent capacities of caring were fundamental. Participants believed their work was meaningful and made a difference, and that they were a part of something bigger. They felt empathy and compassion toward clients, and generally believed that their temperament and upbringing also influenced their capacity to maintain a positive perspective. Aside from their beliefs, workers depended on receiving support from like-minded people, colleagues, and others in their environment. They utilized self-care, self-monitoring techniques, and demonstrated self-awareness and a mature capacity to adapt to the unexpected. They were able to apply their learning from past experiences in support of the services they offer to others.

Full textO terceiro setor tem vindo a ganhar espaço e importância na sociedade atual dadas as mudanças a nível mundial que enfrentamos. Este setor diz respeito a um conjunto de organizações, com variadas iniciativas, de carácter privado, sem fins lucrativos, cujo objetivo passa por produzir bens e serviços para a comunidade. A importância do terceiro setor deve-se à sua maior expressão, tendo impacto no número de trabalhadores que emprega e ainda do volume de rendimento gerado (Cattani et al., 2009). Em Portugal, muitas das instituições deste setor são classificadas como Instituições Particulares de Solidariedade Social, sem fins lucrativos, tendo "o propósito de dar expressão organizada ao dever moral de justiça e de solidariedade, contribuindo para a efetivação dos direitos sociais dos cidadãos, desde que não sejam administradas pelo Estado ou por outro organismo público" (Segurança Social, 2018). Dadas as especificidades deste setor, o capital humano, que diz respeito ao conhecimento acumulado na organização, é a grande chave para o sucesso da mesma e a satisfação das necessidades. Neste sentido, é urgente pensar numa gestão de recursos humanos que seja eficaz e ajustada à realidade deste setor. O presente trabalho analisa o setor social e a sua relação com a GRH, com base em entrevistas realizadas a Assistentes Sociais que exercem em diferentes organizações, procurando entender os seus maiores desafios, o que é necessário mudar e a importância atribuída aos recursos humanos.
The third sector gained importance and space in contemporary society, given the changes we are facing worldwide. This sector encompasses a set of private, nonprofit organizations with varied initiatives, where the objective is to offer goods and services to the community. The importance of this sector derives from its growing expression, which has an impact on the number of workers it employs and the income it generates (Cattani et al., 2009). Many of the institutions within this sector are social solidarity institutions, stemming either from private initiative or nonprofit, with "the purpose of giving organized expression to solidarity and moral justice duty, contributing for the effective application of social rights of the citizens, since they are not administrated by the state or any other public authority" (Segurança Social, 2018). Given the specificities of this sector, human capital, conceived as the knowledge accumulated in each organization, is key to the success of the organization. In this sense, there is an urgent need to think of an effective and adjusted human resources management in this sector. In this dissertation, we analyze the social sector and its relationship with human resources management based on interviews done to social workers that work in different organizations, seeking to understand their biggest challenges, what is needed to change, and the importance given to human resources.

Full textThis study analyses participation of workers within two human service organisations, within the education field in the Western Cape. It also examines the reasons, degrees and levels of participation as well as the impact it has on individual workers and the organisations as a whole. The case study method was used with the major research techniques being observation, unstructured interviews and the analysis of primary sources of information such as, documentation. A stratified random sample of sixteen workers were selected for interviewing. The data was analysed on the basis of the literature review and placed within the context of relevant theoretical perspectives of democracy, bureaucracy and management science. It was found that both organisations made use of participatory methods in organising themselves. However, the reasons, degree and conditions facilitating it differed considerably, despite the fact that the levels of participation were similar. The study concludes, with a reflection on the processes required to achieve greater participation within the organisations studied and human service organisations in general.

Full textBackground: Children are an important source of information in the investigations of the social services. Swedish law stipulates that the best interests of the child should be considered when measures concern them. Social workers sometimes feel insecure about speaking with children. The purpose of this study is to examine the opportunities of social workers for training in speaking with children, and the need for development of the organization in order to improve conversations with children. Two groups are included in the study, social workers that work with non-institutional care, and social workers that primarily work with the exercise of public authority. These groups will be compared to see whether there are similarities and differences in their perception of competence. Method: The study has been done by a quantitative method where data has been collected with online surveys. In total, 10 of the 13 municipalities in Jönköping County have participated in the study. Out of the 77 social workers in child welfare asked to participate, 52 (65.7 per cent) chose to do so, whereof 19 work with non-institutional care and 33 with the exercise of public authority. Results: The study shows that there is room for improvement of social workers’ conversations with children with regards to education and work material. The study also shows that there are no significant differences between different types of social workers. Conclusions: The study indicates that social workers need more knowledge of speaking with children, and that there are areas that need improvement for the conversation with the child to be perceived as more positive.

Full textThe aim of this study was to describe and analyse social workers’ approach in working with parents with mild intellectual disability. The study intends to find out if work approach is related to position and type of organisation. The data consists of six semi structured interviews with social workers from three different organisations that in work meet parents with mild intellectual disability. These organisations were Vuxenhabiliteringen, LSS and Individ- and Familjeomsorgen. In addition, an interview with a researcher that has expert knowledge in development for parents with mild intellectual disability was done. In the analysis the experiences of social workers were linked to organizational tasks and importance of cooperation. The study purposed to analyse the result from two theoretical perspectives; street- level bureaucracy and human-service organisations. The result shows that social workers in the organisations have different approaches dependent on what organisation they work in and the role and working tasks they have in work. The study also indicated how the organisations and their tasks affected the parenthood for persons with mild intellectual disabled parents.
