This study sought to assess the relationship between work engagement and the organizational climate of workers within the scope of the senior administration of the Federal University of Pará, in order to verify a possible cause and effect relationship between both constructs. To this end, an exploratory and descriptive field research was carried out, with a cross-sectional survey of data via a questionnaire applied to 211 interviewees in 2019. The approach was of a quantitative nature, using descriptive statistical technique, correlation analysis and multiple linear regression for data processing. Work engagement is defined as a positive state of job accomplishment characterized by the presence of vigor, dedication and absorption. It is understood that engaged workers feel more involved with work, experience positive emotions and enjoy good mental and psychosomatic health. These aspects collaborate to increase the performance of these professionals. In contrast, the organizational climate corresponds to the mood or satisfaction of workers with respect to various aspects of their organization. The result of the regression analysis confirmed the existence of dependency relationships between variables of the two constructs, revealed especially by the relationship of cause and effect between engagement and the factor “job satisfaction”, proving that certain variables of the organizational climate can influence the worker behavior in a relevant way. The discovery broadens the understanding of the predictors of engagement in Public Administration, being able to support applicable strategies in the area of people management.

Motivação e engajamento no trabalho: uma pesquisa com servidores da educação superior
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2023-05-11) RODRIGUES, Rômulo Augusto Parente; MATTOS, Carlos André Corrêa de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3337808570398709; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3027-7479
Motivation is a construct that has been studied for decades and is characterized as a driving force that boosts people to make personal efforts to achieve something. Engagement at work, on the other hand, concerns the worker's immersion in his organizational role, when expressing himself physically, cognitively, and emotionally throughout his work activity. Thus, motivation and engagement at work stand out for organizational performance. Considering this aspect, this yresearch aims to analyze the motivation and engagement of public education workers in Federal Institutions of Higher Education (IFES, Brazilian acronym) in the Pará State, Brazil, and to identify the connection of constructs. For this purpose, the Work Preference Inventory (WPI) scale was used to measure motivation, and the Utrecht Work Engagement Scale (UWES) was used to measure work engagement. The survey method with treatment of quantitative data used the Structural Equation Modeling. The questionnaire was applied using the SurveyMonkey® digital platform. The results confirmed the study's hypotheses that there was an influence of extrinsic motivation on intrinsic motivation and of extrinsic and intrinsic motivation on engagement at work, showing that workers motivated by both internal and external reasons are more engaged in their work activities and that organizational strategies that encourage worker motivation are beneficial at both the individual and organizational levels.
