Abstract
An instrument to measure job-related traits was developed and adapted to a Portuguese sample. This inventory, an adaptation of items from the International Personality Item Pool (Goldberg et al., 2006), measures a set of work-related facets over two studies (N = 437). Given the challenges in translating and adapting words and idioms from English to Portuguese, the focus was to ensure the scale remained gender-neutral and that its psychometric quality was enhanced. The findings validated 16 work-related personality scales under a three-factor structure, suggesting a new theoretical model for work-related personality traits in the Portuguese language and professional context. This research underscores the importance of exploring personality in the workplace, particularly within the Portuguese context with its distinct cultural nuances.
