  • Beschreibung: <jats:p>This qualitative exploratory study investigated the career development experiences, concerns, and interests of hourly employees. The study, conducted in the USA, focused on satisfaction with work and careers and the potential role of career development activities in enhancing work life. Results revealed a range of needs and perspectives regarding career development and reinforced the importance of conducting further studies with this key population.

Therefore organizations are urged to devote more attention to the career development of these often‐overlooked employees.</jats:p>
