Abstract

We examine internal and external factors that build or thwart the career adaptability resources of migrant hotel workers. Drawing on qualitative data at two points in time over a 12-month period during COVID-19, results show that while some migrant workers changed roles and exited hotels, for most, job changes were a shorter-term, separation phenomenon, with migrants transitioning back to their employer within a year. Psychological, social, and human capital resources facilitated career adaptability, while psychoemotional support from managers and peers fostered the confidence of temporary migrants, and facilitated positive affect, which was integral to their openness to exploring alternate hospitality careers. Inhibitors to career adaptability included a lack of agency among temporary migrants, and career entrenchment of mid-career permanent migrants. Our model provides a fine-grained, holistic understanding of the antecedents of career adaptability, enriching career construction theory by clarifying the contexts that drive career adaptability in the evolving, COVID-19 context.
职业适应性的推动者和障碍框架:新冠肺炎期间的移民酒店工人
本文考察了酒店外来务工人员职业适应资源形成或阻碍的内外部因素。根据2019冠状病毒病期间12个月内两个时间点的定性数据,结果显示,虽然一些农民工改变了角色并离开了酒店,但对大多数人来说,工作变化是一种短期的分离现象,农民工在一年内就会转回雇主。心理、社会和人力资本资源促进了职业适应能力,而来自管理人员和同事的心理情感支持培养了临时移民的信心,并促进了积极影响,这是他们愿意探索其他酒店职业的必要条件。职业适应性的抑制因素包括临时移民缺乏代理,以及职业中期永久移民的职业巩固。我们的模型对职业适应性的前因由提供了细致、全面的理解,通过阐明在不断变化的COVID-19背景下驱动职业适应性的背景,丰富了职业建设理论。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Hospitality & Tourism Research (JHTR) is an international scholarly research journal that publishes high-quality, refereed articles that advance the knowledge base of the hospitality and tourism field. JHTR focuses on original research, both conceptual and empirical, that clearly contributes to the theoretical development of our field. The word contribution is key. Simple applications of theories from other disciplines to a hospitality or tourism context are not encouraged unless the authors clearly state why this context significantly advances theory or knowledge. JHTR encourages research based on a variety of methods, qualitative and quantitative.
