Abstract

SOTO ROY, Álvaro  and  GAETE ALTAMIRANO, Tomás. Tensions in individual identity construction in flexible working. Univ. Psychol. [online]. 2013, vol.12, n.4, pp.1169-1182. ISSN 1657-9267.

The article proposed a reflection on the tensions and contradictions of identity construction processes in flexible work, within the results of a research in some Chilean companies. The analysis suggests the existence of dynamics characterized by a tension between inherited elements from the trajectory and desired aspects in an identity level, as well as distances and contradictions between individual and collective dimensions of identity construction.

Keywords : Flexible Work; Work Identities; Narratives; Career Paths; Critical Social Psychology; Qualitative Research; Chile.
