Happiness at work is a consolidated topic. Perhaps the PR and communication sector, often at the forefront of organizational change, is one of the industries where most progress has been made in this regard. The objective of the present study was to carry out an exploratory analysis on the extent to which PR is a profession that enables the development of happiness in the workplace. To this end, a questionnaire was administered to a sample of PR professionals in Spain (N = 256). The questionnaire consisted of the PERMA-profiler, a model where work relationships, engagement, positive affections/emotions, vital sense/purpose and achievements are measured. The results show a remarkable level of happiness among surveyed professionals, especially among women, who obtained higher scores on all five factors, although with a statistically significant difference only in two of the five factors in PERMA (Engagement and Relationships). Neither age nor the hierarchical level of the respondent had any incidence. Therefore, PR can be a profession that notably enables human flourishing at work, even more so among women.
工作中的幸福感是一个成熟的话题。公关与传播行业往往处于组织变革的前沿，或许是在这方面取得进展最大的行业之一。本研究的目的是对公关在多大程度上是一种能促进职场幸福感发展的职业进行探索性分析。为此，对西班牙的公关专业人士样本（N = 256）进行了问卷调查。问卷由“PERMA剖析仪”组成，该模型用于衡量工作关系、投入度、积极情感/情绪、生命意义/目标和成就。结果显示，接受调查的专业人士幸福感水平显著，尤其是女性，她们在所有五个因素上得分更高，不过在“PERMA”的五个因素中只有两个因素（投入度和关系）存在统计学上的显著差异。受访者的年龄和层级水平均无影响。因此，公关可以成为一种显著促进职场人类繁荣的职业，对女性而言更是如此。
