Abstract

The detrimental effects of job insecurity are well recognized in the scientific literature. In this paper, we investigate the impact of qualitative job insecurity on an outcome that has been somewhat neglected to date: organizational identification. In addition, we test the moderating role of organizational justice in the relationship between qualitative job insecurity and organizational identification. A group of 170 workers completed a questionnaire assessing qualitative job insecurity, overall organizational justice, and identification with the organization. We found that qualitative job insecurity was negatively related to organizational identification as well as to organizational justice. Organizational justice buffered the negative impact of qualitative job insecurity on organizational identification. When organizational justice was low, qualitative job insecurity was significantly negatively related to organizational identification. However, when organizational justice was high, qualitative job insecurity and organizational identification were unrelated.

质性工作不安全感对组织认同的影响:组织公平感的调节作用

科学文献充分认识到工作不安全的有害影响。在本文中，我们调查了定性工作不安全感对一个迄今为止被忽视的结果的影响：组织认同。此外，我们还检验了组织公正在定性工作不安全感和组织认同之间关系中的调节作用。由170名员工组成的小组完成了一份问卷调查，评估了定性的工作不安全感、整体组织公正性和对组织的认同度。我们发现，定性的工作不安全感与组织认同以及组织公正性呈负相关。组织公正缓冲了定性工作不安全感对组织认同的负面影响。当组织公正性较低时，定性工作不安全感与组织认同显著负相关。然而，当组织公正性较高时，定性的工作不安全感和组织认同感是无关的。
