Correspondencia entre el perfil de puesto y la percepción de las actividades realizadas en una universidad pública

Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the perceptions of a specific group of staff members at a public university regarding the correspondence between their job profiles and the activities they perform. A quantitative research approach was employed through the administration of a structured questionnaire. The study examined aspects related to knowledge of job profiles, perceptions of alignment with the activities performed, changes in work activities, and training received. The findings indicate that, although job profiles exist and are generally perceived as aligned with the activities performed, many staff members are unfamiliar with their formal content. Similarly, a perceived mismatch between performed duties and institutional job profiles was identified, particularly among staff members who reported changes in their work activities. Regarding training, participants perceived that the training provided was insufficient and not equitably distributed, while also expressing an ongoing need for relevant professional development. It is concluded that, according to staff perceptions, job profiles do not fully correspond with the activities performed. Therefore, strengthening their updating and dissemination, as well as developing training programs based on identified needs, is recommended.
