Sažetak
Maritime as a career is characterized by frequent and long-time period separation from family, work in a surroundings this is additionally a living space, which is also hierarchically strictly regulated. This research was prompted through a lack of quantitative studies on the relationship among emotional intelligence, justice in an organizational context, and occupational stress in seafarers. The aim of the study was to observe the function of emotional intelligence and justice in an organizational context in explaining the experience of stress in seafarers. The survey involved 177 seafarers, who filled out an online questionnaire, which, in addition to sociodemographic questions, included the Emotional Competence Questionnaire, the Scale of Justice in the Organizational Context and the Scale of Stress on Board. The results showed that individuals reported on average relatively high levels of emotional intelligence, slightly elevated levels of stress on board, whilst justice in the organizational context was assessed as moderate. The difference was found between the perceived justice of the supervisor and the work organization, whereby the supervisor was perceived as more just. Significant negative associations of stress on board with emotional intelligence and general justice, in addition to with the justice of the supervisor and the justice of the work organization, have been observed. Multiple regression analysis indicated that emotional intelligence, managerial justice, and work organization justice explain 11.90% of the variance in the experience of stress, with perceived work organization justice proving as the only significant predictor. The findings of the study indicate the importance of further studies on emotional intelligence and justice in the organizational context in the research area of occupational stress in seafarers, but also offer a few guidelines for intervention strategies in this area.
