Employability is a crucial factor in managing to emerge and changing job demands. This study validates an expanded version of the Employability Appraisal Scale: EAS-60, as an instrument to identify and improve competencies for employability.
The EAS-60 was tested in a cross-sectional study in a Spanish population. An exploratory study was carried out using a sample of 188 workers, and the scale's structure was analyzed and confirmed in two Confirmatory Factor Analyses using a sample of 527 workers. Finally, reliability and validity were evaluated.
Exploratory and confirmatory analyses provide evidence supporting the multi-dimensional structure. The scale presents good psychometric properties and criteria for interpreting the scores.
The EAS-60 is a reliable and valid instrument. It allows Human Resource Managers to offer career plans at work that include specific actions of job socialization, training, improvement of specific skills, etc. Furthermore, employees can increase their employability and develop their professional careers.
就业能力是在就业市场中脱颖而出以及应对不断变化的工作需求的关键因素。本研究验证了就业能力评估量表的扩展版本:EAS - 60,作为一种识别和提升就业能力的工具。
EAS - 60在西班牙人群的横断面研究中进行了测试。使用188名工人的样本进行了探索性研究,并在两个验证性因素分析中使用527名工人的样本对量表结构进行了分析和确认。最后,评估了信度和效度。
探索性和验证性分析提供了支持多维结构的证据。该量表具有良好的心理测量特性和分数解释标准。
EAS - 60是一种可靠且有效的工具。它使人力资源经理能够在工作中提供职业规划,包括工作社会化、培训、特定技能提升等具体行动。此外,员工可以提高其就业能力并发展其职业生涯。
