Comprometimento e Entrincheiramento Organizacionais: Uma Análise Comparativa com Duas Instituições de Ensino Superior

This study aims to compare the perception of the technical-administrative in education of two higher education institutions about the establishment of ties of commitment and entrenchment with their organizations. A study of a descriptive nature was carried out with the participation of two federal higher education institutions: IES A located in the state of Maranhao and IES B located in the state of Rio Grande do Sul. The research sample was 242 individuals from HEI B and 139 from the IES A. From the results it was possible to verify that the commitment showed high levels in the two researched institutions, which reveals an emotional connection of the employees with their institutions. Organizational entrenchment levels were shown to be high in HEI and moderate in HEI B. In summary, the results confirm the coexistence of commitment and entrenchment links in the servers of the two institutions studied. After a long period in which the research on the worker's ties with the organization was focused almost exclusively on the commitment construct, the new perspective of multiple organizational ties is reinforced with the results of this research.
