Conflicting Work Ethics Sample Clauses

Conflicting Work Ethics. This theme reflects the conflicting ideals that faculty perceive within the Bahraini HE sector. Faculty members are subject to conflicting dynamics and work ethics. On the one hand, they engage in activities that contribute to the growth and well-being of the institution. On the other hand, they must adapt to the consequences of “personal” rather than professional working relations. PT faculty showed a willingness to engage in OCB, or in other words, to do more for less. They participate in meetings, committees, and social events, knowing that these activities are not part of the contractual agreement with the university. Furthermore, all faculty demonstrated signs of loyalty and attachment to their institutions. As mentioned earlier, most participants were committed to stay and continue working for the same institution. Participant no. 10 stated, “even if I were not to continue with teaching there, it is an excellent place to keep in touch with... It is a great place to continue, and it adds a lot of weight to your career”. When asked to use three words to describe their institutions, most of the words used by the faculty had positive connotations. Table 6 shows the positive and negative words that the participants used to describe their institutions. As can be seen, the word “promising”, “making me proud”, and “ambitious” were repeated two times each. The choice of words implies that the faculty believe in the potential of the institutions. PT faculty provided examples of times when they taught additional courses at short notice because they did not want to fail the institution and felt committed towards the college/department. A FT faculty member expressed feelings of empathy even after having experienced the institution reneging on a promise of promotion. The faculty member rationalised the shortcoming of the institution by saying: “So, the promise what – and again, that wasn’t a promise that was on paper, it was a verbal promise – which was ‘Join the [the university] two years as an Assistant Tutor, and then you will be sponsored to do your Masters abroad, and you’ll come back as a Tutor’… there was a change in the country’s [laughs] financial situation, so everything changed. To be fair, I’m not sure if I can classify that as them not keeping their promise, because so many things have changed since then.” Table 6: Words Describing the Institution Positive Descriptions Negative Descriptions Promising-II Makes me proud-II Ambitious-II Friendly Positive...
