Specific entry: Northern and Arctic Societies AnnotationThe rotational method of work, being a special form of employment, involves a long stay of employees away from their permanent place of residence. This mode of work has a significant impact on the axiosphere of personality, forming a special balance between tangible and intangible values. The research is aimed at analyzing the ratio of materialistic and non-materialistic aspects in the value orientations of shift workers, identifying the specifics of the value framework, as well as the factors influencing their transformation over the period spent working under such conditions. The theoretical basis of the work was the concepts of values and axiological systems, including the works of Russian and foreign scientists studying the phenomenon of professional mobility, social adaptation and the influence of working conditions on personal preferences. The empirical part of the study is based on data from the authors’ survey of shift workers (n=77) in various industries (oil and gas, construction, mining, etc.). Analysis and interpretation of the data obtained showed that tangible values play a key role in shift work. It has been established that over time, the significance of various values is being rethought and strategies for the shortage of intangible assets are being formed. The findings of the study can be useful not only for employers, psychologists, sociologists, and HR specialists, but may also be taken into account by interested parties to harmonize the value system of shift workers and to increase job satisfaction.About authors
