    Intervención comportamental tipo nudge para aumentar la participación de las mujeres en vacantes de tecnología e informática
    (Universidad EAFIT, 2023) Marín Pareja, Erica Yohana; Montoya Jaramillo, Salomé
    Objective: to increase women's applications for specialised IT vacancies published on the Comfama Employment Service platform through nudge, reducing ambiguity in the structure of the vacancies, attaching a message of inclusion, and reinforcing role models. Method: a quasi-experimental study was conducted in a real environment with ex ante - ex post measurement and a non-probabilistic convenience sample. During 4 weeks, the structure of a total of 10 vacancies published in the Comfama Employment Service for the month of October 2023 was modified, assigned to the Specialised IT Connector, where a message of inclusion was added to the headline of the vacancy, information such as the name and salary range was included and the publication was replicated in the advertisement on the Comfama Employment social networks. Methodological tools from the Easy, Attractive, Social, Timely (EAST) model were used to reduce ambiguity in the structure and information of the vacancies and to reinforce role models with women in IT positions. Result: during the month of October 2023 there was a 14% participation of women in contrast to the month of August and September of the same year, where the participation was 8%. In addition, 51% male participation was achieved, compared to 42% in August. Conclusions: By reducing ambiguity in the structure of the vacancies, providing necessary information plus the accompanying message of inclusion and reinforcing role models, it was possible to increase the participation of women by 6 percentage points in October 2023 compared to August and September 2023. In addition, the intervention does not affect male participation, as it even increased male participation by 9 points over August.

    Significados del trabajo según mujeres colombianas empleadas en el sector TI y el sector salud en edades entre los 18 y 28 años : un estudio comparativo
    (Universidad EAFIT, 2024) Pérez Marín, Yerli Cristina; Jiménez Rodríguez, Julián Alexander; López Gallego, Francisco Darío
    The present qualitative study focuses on exploring the meanings attributed to work by Colombian women aged 18 to 28 years employed in the information technology (IT) and healthcare sectors. Using the Meaning of Work model (MOW, 1987), this study is based on dimensions such as the centrality of work, societal norms and beliefs about work, work goals, recognition of work outcomes, and identification with the work role, from which questions were also formulated for the information collection instrument. The research context covers the historical evolution of the concept of work and further explores the definition of the concept of meaning from various theoretical notions, highlighting the relevance of the understanding of the concept of work among young people, especially in Generation Z. In the IT sector, work is perceived in a multifaceted way, as a means of emotional stability and personal development. On the other hand, in the healthcare sector, it is experienced as an essential obligation for economic independence and professional learning. Both sectors share the pursuit of self-realization. However, autonomy stands out in IT, while social interactions do in healthcare. The results highlight how important identification with the job role is for job satisfaction. The differences between sectors highlight the need to understand and address variations in job perceptions. It is concluded that these differences are critical to creating balanced work environments by addressing individual needs. Overall, this study contributes to the understanding of the meanings of work among young women, providing a basis for future research and improvements in work management.
