Bienestar laboral y equilibrio vida-trabajo en psicólogos independientes: un estudio comparativo entre millennials y la generación z

Abstract

This research aims to understand how independent psychologists of generation Y and generation Z build the concept of work well-being and work-life balance, under their experiences, experiences and context of their professional practice in the city of Cuenca-Ecuador. A qualitative approach with a phenomenological design was applied, using as a tool the semistructured interview with open questions that support the perceptions of the interviewees. Through the qualitative analysis, it was possible to highlight various categories that show how the participants understand the problem. Both generations have opinions that are linked to each other, however, their meaning is different for both. Overall, the results show that well-being is an active construction that is born of oneself being ethical and healthy, and balance with personal life is closely linked to planning and self-respect.
