However, several challenges exist in the work environment that may impact both their productivity and their health. Accordingly, it is vital that individuals are able to adapt resourcefully in a changing environment (Brown & Lent, 2016). There are various challenges that affect employees in the public sectors, for example, in the Water and Sanitation Department in South Africa, employees are exposed to precarious situations such as poor governance, volatile economic conditions, poor service delivery, ambiguous job roles and career uncertainty (Brown & Lent, 2016). This has resulted in employees acquiring new skill and competencies to enable them to contribute to the global business market. Career adaptability may be regarded as psychosocial resources and a cardinal construct useful for having a better understanding of vocational behaviour in which individuals continually adapt throughout life in the ever-changing personal needs and environmental demands (Ambiel, De Carvalho, Martins, & Tofoli, 2016; Duffy, 2010; Savickas, 2012; Tolentino et al., 2014).","PeriodicalId":47235,"journal":{"name":"SA Journal of Industrial Psychology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2021-04-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45519915","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The desire to maximise human capital is not a new concept; the methods used are changing to reflect the important role job engagement plays in the workplace. Job engagement has been considered as the most popular topic to be incorporated within the human resource management agenda if organisations are to outmanoeuver their competitors. According to Chen and Nadkarni (2017), because of intensive global competition there is need for organisations to better utilise human resources to achieve success. Nienaber and Martins (2016) conceived competitive advantage as the hallmark of rigorous strategy. Therefore, for organisations to successfully increase their competitive advantage, they need to develop strategies to attract, motivate and retain a highly skilled, flexible and adaptive workforce. These strategies are within the human resource management practises and can be addressed with factors such as job engagement, psychological conditions and personality traits. Despite the popularity of the concepts within the organisational setting, research findings on the potential of these constructs to attract, motivate and retain talent are not consistent. Mixed results have been reported on the impact of personality and psychological conditions on job engagement (Gulamali, 2017; Ongore, 2014). Conducting more research on the concepts using different populations and organisation will provide an indication on the empirical estimation of the constructs to achieve Orientation: Increasing job engagement in a sustainable way remains a challenge and the question remains as to why employees, when working under comparable conditions display signs of job engagement whereas others display a few or no signs of job engagement.","PeriodicalId":47235,"journal":{"name":"SA Journal of Industrial Psychology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2021-03-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44923327","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This talent pool includes individuals with different sexual orientations and gender identities such as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, asexual and others (LGBTQIA+: henceforth referred to as queer). Despite legislation regulating equality and equal access, queer employees continually face many challenges on both a personal level and in the work context, such as being compelled to refrain from revealing their sexual identity through to blatant discriminatory practices such as job dismissals (International Labour Organization [ILO], 2016; Ozeren, 2014), and cases of micro-aggressive, homophobic language and destructive behaviour (Vollenhoven & Els, 2013). According to Meyer (2003), these examples are outside stressors, referred to as distal minority stressors experienced by minority social groups such as queer individuals, which increases their risk of negative mental health outcomes (Ramirez & Galupo, 2019). These stressful experiences, along with other factors such as internalised homonegativity, negative appraisal of one’s sexual identity and poor social support, contribute Orientation: It is known that black queer employees are exposed to various forms of discrimination because of their sexual orientation being different from the norm. However, because of societal progression in terms of equality and inclusivity in Africa, it is hoped that the discriminatory challenge has lessened and that black queer employees are now in a position to experience well-being. When employees experience well-being, personal functioning and organisational performance are promoted.","PeriodicalId":47235,"journal":{"name":"SA Journal of Industrial Psychology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2021-01-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42267909","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution License. Introduction Over the past few decades, work–family research has been dominated by the conflict perspective (Greenhaus & Beutell, 1985) according to which the fulfilment of multiple work and family roles leads to experiences of conflict and stress and their concomitant detrimental effects (Eby, Casper, Lockwood, Bordeaux, & Brinley, 2005). The conflict perspective has also been the focus of most work–family studies conducted in Africa (Dubihlela & Dhurup, 2013; Koekemoer, Mostert, & Rothmann, 2010; Mostert, 2011; Opie & Henn, 2013). However, because of the growing attention given to positive psychology, international work–family researchers have come to realise that resources may be generated when multiple roles are occupied, resulting in positive outcomes for employees, organisations and families (Greenhaus & Powell, 2006; Voydanoff, 2002). As a result, international scholars, organisations and human resource practitioners increasingly focus on the positive aspects of the work–family interface. Nevertheless, the number of studies emphasising this positive interaction between work and family within the South African context is limited (De Klerk, Nel, Hill, & Koekemoer, 2013; Jaga, Bagraim, & Williams, 2013).","PeriodicalId":47235,"journal":{"name":"SA Journal of Industrial Psychology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2021-01-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49264958","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
