O trabalho temporário (TT) define-se como uma relação triangular, estabelecida entre o trabalhador, a agência de trabalho temporário (ATT) e a empresa utilizadora (EU), caracterizada pela cedência temporária de mão de obra e pela flexibilidade dos vínculos contratuais. Partindo desta conceptualização, a presente dissertação tem como objetivo compreender de que forma a rotatividade laboral influencia as perspetivas de carreira a longo prazo dos trabalhadores temporários nos setores da logística e da indústria, em determinados concelhos da Área Metropolitana do Porto.
A literatura revista aborda as dinâmicas do emprego não padrão, a relação triangular do trabalho temporário, os fatores impulsionadores da rotatividade e as consequências da instabilidade no desenvolvimento de carreiras a longo prazo.
A investigação adotou uma metodologia qualitativa e exploratória, baseada em dez entrevistas semiestruturadas a trabalhadores temporários dos setores analisados na região do Porto. A análise temática adotada permitiu identificar as perceções sobre a rotatividade, as barreiras à progressão e as estratégias individuais de adaptação.
Os resultados revelam que a rotatividade gera sentimentos de insegurança e dificulta o planeamento pessoal e profissional a longo prazo, sendo o TT muitas vezes percecionado como uma situação de transição prolongada em vez de uma ponte para o emprego estável. No entanto, observam-se também diferentes perspetivas individuais, onde alguns trabalhadores procuram ativamente a flexibilidade, enquanto outros se sentem aprisionados na precariedade.
Em conclusão, a dissertação reforça a necessidade de políticas de gestão de recursos humanos e de regulação do mercado de trabalho mais atentas aos impacto da rotatividade contínua, promovendo a valorização e o desenvolvimento sustentável das carreiras dos trabalhadores temporários.
Temporary agency work is defined as a triangular relationship established between the worker, the temporary work agency, and the user firm, characterized by the temporary provision of labor and the flexibility of contractual ties. Building upon this conceptualization, this dissertation aims to understand how job turnover influences the long-term career prospects of temporary agency workers in the logistics and industrial sectors within selected municipalities of the Porto Metropolitan Area. The reviewed literature addresses the dynamics of non-standard employment, the triangular relationship of temporary work, the drivers of turnover, and the consequences of instability on long-term career development. The research adopted a qualitative and exploratory methodology, based on ten semi-structured interviews with temporary agency workers from the analyzed sectors in the Porto region. The thematic analysis conducted made it possible to identify perceptions of turnover, barriers to progression, and individual coping strategies. The results reveal that turnover generates feelings of insecurity and hinders long-term personal and professional planning, with temporary agency work often perceived as a prolonged transition state rather than a bridge to stable employment. However, differing individual perspectives are also observed, with some workers actively seeking flexibility while others feel trapped in precariousness. In conclusion, the dissertation reinforces the need for human resource management policies and labor market regulation that pay greater attention to the impacts of continuous turnover, promoting the valorization and sustainable career development of temporary agency workers.
