The objective of this thesis was to investigate how the psychological aspects related to the so callings occupational and meaningful work are understood in the personal, professional and contemporary careers of Brazilian workers. For this, three independent studies were carried out. The first article used a sample of 2111 adult workers (over 18 years old), which sought to adapt and collect additional evidence of validity of the Work as Meaning Inventory – WAMI (Steger, Dik & Duffy, 2012) in Brazilian workers. This study provided a robust measure for the Brazilian context, which meets the psychometric rigors of adapting instruments across cultures. In addition to expanding the nomological network of the meaningful work construct in the Brazilian sample. The second article also had a sample of 2111 workers and aimed to adapt and present the psychometric properties of the Unified Multidimensional Calling Scale – UMCS (Vianello; Galliani; Rosa & Anselmi, 2018), as well as the invariance of the measure by sex in Brazilian workers. . The adapted version collaborates with the literature by providing an unprecedented instrument for measuring the construct in the area of careers in the Brazilian context. The third article had a sample of 527 workers and explored how individual resources (selfefficacy, life satisfaction and self-reflection & insight), career (engagement, adaptability, protean career orientation and kaleidoscopic parameters) and work (meaningful work, job satisfaction, work-family conflict, workaholism and burnout) are associated with the calling occupational levels of these Brazilian workers. The results reveal that there are significant differences in the way that workers with high levels of callings see their work in relation to workers with low levels of callings. In addition, workers with high levels of occupational callings have more personal, work and career resources compared to the other group. The three studies mentioned above allow us to understand the mechanisms used by workers to reach the callings occupational and meaningful work in the contemporary world, even in the face of career and labor market adversities. And they provide instruments adapted to assist and facilitate interventions in the careers of Brazilian workers.
