Abstract

Career adaptability is important in the adaptation of care leavers to social life. The objective of this study was to examine of the career and work adaptability level of care leavers working in public bodies. This research is a cross-sectional study within the general screening model. Data was obtained from 91 care leavers who work in public bodies in Amasya province in Turkey. The Career and Economic Status Survey and Career and Work Adaptability Scale was used in collecting data. Results indicated that 67% of the participants were mostly satisfied with their workplaces. 64.8% of the participants were mostly satisfied with their work, 56% were mostly satisfied with their managers, and 70.3% were mostly satisfied with their colleagues. The overall career and work adaptability levels of care leavers are at a good level, but the ability to act cooperatively is greater. It is believed that the results will guide the policies towards care leavers.

Özet

Koruma altında yetişenlerin sosyal hayata uyumlarında kariyer uyumu önemlidir. Bu araştırmada, kamu kurumlarında çalışan koruma altından ayrılan bireylerin iş ve meslek hayatına uyum düzeylerinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bu araştırma genel tarama modelinde kesitsel bir çalışmadır. Araştırmanın verileri, koruma altından ayrılan ve Amasya ilinde kamu kurumlarında çalışan 91 kişiden toplanmıştır. Verilerin toplanmasında kariyer ve ekonomik durum anketi ile iş ve meslek hayatına uyum ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Araştırmanın bulguları, katılımcıların %67'sinin çoğunlukla iş yerlerinden memnun olduklarını göstermektedir. Katılımcıların %64.8'i işlerinden çoğunlukla memnun, %56'sı yöneticilerinden çoğunlukla memnun, %70.3'ü çalışma arkadaşlarından çoğunlukla memnundur. Koruma altından ayrılan bireylerin iş ve meslek hayatına uyumları iyi düzeydedir ancak işbirlikli hareket etme yetenekleri daha yüksektir. Araştırma bulgularının koruma altında yetişenlere yönelik politikalara yol göstereceği düşünülmektedir.
