Authors:Jean Guichard Pages: 5 - 13 Abstract: Australian Journal of Career Development, Volume 31, Issue 1, Page 5-13, April 2022. In recent decades support for the design of active lives has generally been conceived as an aid intended for qualified workers to manage their careers on the labor market. This conception is, for example, the basis of the official definition of this support published by the Council of the European Union in 2008. However, alternative definitions insist on all of the dimensions of any active life and wonder about the the view of the future to which such support refers. The very serious current crisis of the “anthropo-capitalocene” leads precisely to a focus on reflections on this future. Such a concern is at the heart of new interventions to support the design of active lives. It deals with the following question: by what forms of active life can we achieve the objectives of sustainable and equitable development defined by the major international organizations and the specialists in these matters' Developing this renewal of support for the design of active lives involves specifying the conceptual field on which to base it, experimenting with new interventions and setting up operating devices to propose them to the public.

Authors:Michelle Gander Pages: 14 - 25 Abstract: Australian Journal of Career Development, Volume 31, Issue 1, Page 14-25, April 2022. This study sets out to argue for the interplay between structure and agency to create a deeper understanding of careers. Using Bourdieu's Theory of Practice as an integrative framework for career theory, this study sets out to answer two questions: (1) does the concept of a Holistic Career Framework add value to the career debate by placing emphasis on both agency and structure' (2) does a Holistic Career Framework help link theory with practice' One hundred and thirty-nine career stories from university professional staff were analysed using a narrative approach, coded and thematically analysed for overarching patterns. The Holistic Career Framework was used as a lens to further understand individual career needs and decisions. By analysing the career stories of university professional staff, and understanding the context in which they operate, a deeper understanding of career behaviour and decision-making is provided.

Authors:Donnalee B. Taylor, Kellie M. Johns, Margaret L. Reilly, Robert M. Hedlefs Pages: 26 - 41 Abstract: Australian Journal of Career Development, Volume 31, Issue 1, Page 26-41, April 2022. Retaining workers in high stress occupations and preparing undergraduates to enter these occupations continues to intensify along with mental health and wellbeing challenges. The veterinary profession is particularly vulnerable to poor psychological health which contributes negatively to the retention of veterinarians in the profession. Employing the positive psychology theoretical model rationale, and the andragogy philosophies and approaches, a veterinary career development (VCD) program was scaffolded across a five year Bachelor of Veterinary Science (BVSc) degree. Thematic analysis of participants’ feedback with a focus on what they think, feel and do provided valuable insights into participants’ developing skill-strength and tacit knowledge, and their resilience-building. The authors believe this is the first report on the creation and outcomes of a veterinary career development program that fosters the building of resilience through the attainment of tacit knowledge and practical skills required for successful employment and wellbeing.

Authors:Andrea Svicher, Annamaria Di Fabio, Alessio Gori Pages: 42 - 56 Abstract: Australian Journal of Career Development, Volume 31, Issue 1, Page 42-56, April 2022. The present study investigated the Italian version of the Decent Work Scale (DWS) with a sample of 645 workers (females = 65.1%; mean age = 43.9 years; SD = 10.9) according to a network perspective. We compared factorial and network models and estimated the regularized partial correlations for the five DWS domains: physically and interpersonally safe working conditions (SC), access to healthcare (AH), adequate compensation (AC), hours that allow for free time and rest (FT) and organizational values complement family and social values (CV). The results highlighted that the network model showed the best fit to the data. Among the most central domains in the network, the high centrality of CV suggests that this domain could represent an effective target for actions addressed to fostering decent work in Italy. In contrast, the low centrality of AC and FT underlines the urgent need to advocate for more decent remunerations and working hours in Italy.

Perera, Lisa Beccaria, Chris Kossen, Jim Cavaye, Allison Creed, Nicole McDonald Pages: 57 - 65 Abstract: Australian Journal of Career Development, Volume 31, Issue 1, Page 57-65, April 2022. Emerging public discourse about making a “tree change”, “green change”, or “sea change” emphasizes the putative benefits of working and residing in regional Australia. Yet, attracting and retaining workers in the regions is a challenge for policymakers, governments, and industries. The present research involved two separate surveys of people residing in regional Australian communities to discern demographic and psychological predictors of their intent to stay in their region: income, years in the region, family, life satisfaction, job satisfaction, and place identity. Multiple regression analyses found incremental evidence of place identity as a predictor of intent to stay. The findings regarding place identity have implications for career development practice, human resources recruitment strategies, and public policy focused on regional Australia.

Authors:Poh Kiong Tee, Tat-Huei Cham, Mei Peng Low, Teck-Chai Lau Pages: 66 - 76 Abstract: Australian Journal of Career Development, Volume 31, Issue 1, Page 66-76, April 2022. This research sought to investigate how academics with a protean career attitude perceived success in their academic career. The role of perceived employability was examined by distinguishing between external and internal employability perceptions. Data from 288 academics working in Malaysian universities were collected and analysed using structural equation modelling. The findings revealed that a protean career attitude had no significant direct relationship with career success; rather, it had an indirect effect on success via perceived employability. Both external and internal perceived employability fully mediated the relationship between protean career attitude and career success, with perceived external employability having a stronger direct and mediating effect on academic career success. This study suggests that academic staff depend upon external employment opportunities to pursue success in academia. The implications of study findings are discussed, along with limitations and future research directions.
