La satisfacción laboral es un fenómeno que se ha abordado desde diversos enfoques: el de la administración, el del marketing y por su puesto el de la psicología. Dentro del enfoque de la psicología, se ha estudiado desde hace varios años encontrando que se relaciona con una multitud de fenómenos como son el autoestima del trabajador, su relación con sus superiores, relación con sus colegas de trabajo, remuneración y beneficios, niveles de estrés, horarios de trabajo. Entre otros. Una de las áreas con las que se relaciona la satisfacción laboral es la actitud de compromiso hacia el trabajo, que se refiere a qué tanto interés muestra el trabajador con su empleo, y qué tanto se involucra en el mismo. En el presente trabajo se investigó la relación de la satisfacción laboral y de la actitud de compromiso en el trabajo, con las conductas autodestructivas en los empleados. Se encontró que la satisfacción laboral y la actitud de compromiso en el trabajo se relacionan de manera negativa con las conductas autodestructivas, sin embargo esta correlación no mostró un puntaje significativo por lo que solo se puede afirmar que existe la tendencia de dichas variables a correlacionarse negativamente.

From the Foreword by Alan Marlatt, Ph.D.: “This ground-breaking volume provides readers with both an overview of harm reduction therapy and a series of ten case studies, treated by different therapists, that vividly illustrate this treatment approach with a wide variety of clients. In his introduction, Andrew Tatarsky describes harm reduction as a new paradigm for treating drug and alcohol problems. Some would say that harm reduction embraces a paradigm shift in addiction treatment, as it has moved the field beyond the traditional abstinence-only focus typically associated with the disease model and the ideology of the twelve-step approach. Others may conclude that the move toward harm reduction represents an integration of what Dr. Tatarsky describes as the “basic principles of good clinical practice” into the treatment of addictive behaviors. “Changing addiction behavior is often a complex and complicated process for both client and therapist. What seems to work best is the development of a strong therapeutic alliance, the right fit between the client and treatment provider. The role of the harm reduction therapist is closer to that of a guide, someone who can provide support an
