Abstract

Organizational commitment is essential for maintaining teachers’ loyalty in public schools. This study examines the roles of servant leadership and work–life balance in predicting organizational commitment among public senior high school teachers in Sarolangun Regency, Jambi. Using a quantitative survey design, data were collected from 190 teachers through multistage random sampling and analyzed using multiple linear regression. The results show that servant leadership and work–life balance jointly influence organizational commitment. However, partial analysis indicates that servant leadership has no significant effect, whereas work–life balance has a significant positive effect on organizational commitment. These findings highlight work–life balance as a key factor in strengthening teachers’ organizational commitment, suggesting the importance of supportive work policies in public school settings.Organizational commitment is essential for maintaining teachers’ loyalty in public schools.

Abstract

Teachers happiness at work remains underexplored within a phenomenological framework, particularly regarding how teachers interpret happiness in their everyday professional lives. This study aims to address this gap by examining the construction of teachers lived experiences of happiness at work. Using a qualitative phenomenological approach, data were collected through semi-structured interviews with three junior high school teachers with a minimum of two years of teaching experience. Data were analyzed using Miles and Hubermans analysis model to ensure systematic, consistent, and credible interpretation of participants experiences. The findings reveal that teachers happiness at work is shaped by three interrelated conceptual clusters: meaning-oriented factors (such as personal meaning, purpose, motivation, and subjective perceptions of happiness), relational factors (including social support, collegial relationships, enthusiasm, and emotional engagement), and organizational factors (encompassing career development opportunities, job satisfaction, challenges and coping strategies, as well as perceptions of an ideal organizational environment). Overall, the study highlights that teachers happiness at work is a multidimensional and subjective construct, predominantly grounded in meaningful work, a supportive workplace, and positive social relationships rather than material conditions.

Abstract

Grit defined as persistence and passion for achieving long-term goals, has received increasing attention in psychology research due to its association with academic achievement, career, and resilience. Although the Grit-O Scale developed by Angela Duckworth (2007) has been widely used internationally, validated instruments for measuring grit in Indonesian cultural and linguistic contexts are still limited. Therefore, adapting and examining the psychometric properties of such scales is important to ensure their suitability for research and assessment in Indonesia. This research aims to adapt the Grit-O Scale of Angela Duckworth (2007) into the context of Indonesian culture and language. The study involved 153 respondents between the ages of 18 and over 28. The adaptation process is carried out through several stages: (1) translation, (2) synthesis, (3) back translate, (4) readability test, and (5) finalization. Reliability testing was performed using Omega McDonald and stratified alpha composites, while construct validity was checked using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). The results showed that the adapted scale showed high reliability, with a value of 0.850, and a validity indicating good two-factor model conformity, with RMSEA = 0.043, CFI = 0.990, SRMR = 0.068, and TLI = 0.987. These findings provide preliminary evidence that the Indonesian version of the Grit-O Scale demonstrates acceptable reliability and validity for use in the Indonesian context.

Abstract

Gender discrimination in the workplace remains a persistent issue in the education sector, where female teachers continue to experience unequal treatment that affects their professional roles and personal well-being. This study aims to explore female teachers’ lived experiences of gender discrimination, focusing on how they perceive and navigate gender bias, the impacts of discrimination on their professional and personal lives, and the coping strategies they employ. Using a phenomenological approach, this study applied Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) to in-depth data collected through semi-structured interviews with three female teachers. The findings reveal multiple dimensions of gender discrimination in the school environment, including its underlying causes, psychoemotional impacts, limited institutional support, the role of the work environment, participants’ expectations for change, and strategies used to cope with discriminatory practices. From the perspective of positive psychology, the results indicate that gender discrimination undermines subjective well-being and constrains the development of individual potential. Female teachers largely rely on personal resilience and peer support in the absence of systematic organizational protection. The novelty of this study lies in its phenomenological examination of gender discrimination by foregrounding female teachers’ subjective experiences within the educational workplace, thereby offering a holistic understanding of discrimination that integrates structural, emotional, and coping dimensions. The study underscores the urgent need for changes in institutional mindsets, organizational structures, and workplace cultures, as well as the implementation of gender-sensitive policies and practices to foster inclusive, supportive, and gender-equitable educational environments.

Abstract

Work happiness has become a central issue in organisational psychology, particularly in mission-driven settings where employees are expected to sustain commitment under emotional and resource constraints. This study explores how employees of a social foundation in Karangasem, Bali, experience and negotiate work happiness in everyday organisational life. Using a qualitative phenomenological design, the study applied Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) to in-depth semi-structured interviews with two employees directly involved in community service. Work happiness was understood as a broad subjective experience of work as meaningful, positive, and worth sustaining, while job satisfaction, work engagement, and affective organisational commitment were treated as related but analytically distinct constructs. The findings revealed four interrelated themes: meaning of work, social relationships, emotional burden, and workplace dynamics. Participants experienced happiness through meaningful contribution, alignment between personal values and the foundation’s social mission, and supportive interpersonal relationships. However, this happiness coexisted with emotional fatigue, unclear procedures, uneven task distribution, and shifting organisational demands. The study contributes to psychological discussions on employee well-being by showing that work happiness in nonprofit settings is not the absence of strain, but a negotiated experience sustained through meaning, relational support, emotional regulation, and organisational adaptation.

Abstract

The upstream oil and gas industry is characterized by high occupational risks and work uncertainty, making contract workers vulnerable to job insecurity. This study aims to examine the effect of job insecurity on employee engagement and its dimensions, namely behavioral, cognitive, and emotional engagement, among contract workers in the upstream oil and gas industry in North Kalimantan. A quantitative causal survey design was employed. The population consisted of 248 contract workers, with 160 respondents selected through accidental sampling. Data were collected using the Job Insecurity Scale (JIS) and Employee Engagement Scale (EES) and analyzed using Partial Least Squares-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with SmartPLS 4. The results showed that job insecurity had a negative and significant effect on employee engagement (β = −0.673; p < 0.001; R² = 0.453). Significant negative effects were also found on behavioral, cognitive, and emotional engagement. These findings indicate that higher job insecurity is associated with lower employee engagement among contract workers in the upstream oil and gas industry in North Kalimantan.
