摘要

研究讨论了发达国家和发展中国家私有化的几个方面。在本研究中，我们以心理契约理论和人力资本理论为基础，以及对主动行为和自我概念的研究为基础，研究了在私有化过程中，理解私有化如何影响沙特阿拉伯医疗保健部门员工的定量和定性工作不安全感。使用136名员工的样本，我们的结果表明，理解私有化的概念一般是负相关的量化工作不安全感。了解医疗保健部门私有化的细微差别对工作不安全感的影响是定量的，而不是定性的。本研究对私有化、人力资源和组织行为学的研究有一定的理论贡献。本研究也为决策者和管理者提供了有益的实践启示。

The Impact of Privatization on Employee Job Insecurity: The Case of the Healthcare Sector in Saudi Arabia

Research has discussed several aspects of privatization in developed and developing countries. In this study, we build on the Psychological Contract Theory and the Human Capital Theory, as well as research on proactive behavior and self-concepts, to examine how understanding privatization impacts the quantitative and qualitative job insecurity of employees in the healthcare sector in Saudi Arabia during the privatization process. Using a sample of 136 employees, our results show that understanding the concept of privatization in general is negatively related to quantitative job insecurity. and knowing the nuances of privatization of the healthcare sector impacts quantitative, but not qualitative, job insecurity. This study makes several theoretical contributions to the literature on privatization, human resources, and organizational behavior. This study also provides useful practical implications for policymakers and managers.

Generally the journal publishes the articles that expand knowledge on business and management issues. Business Complexity and Performance Management were the two of the top ten problems IJBMS cover pageof 20th century management. In the 21st century, overcoming such problems seem to be challenging to educators and practitioners.

These all issues call for substantial research to achieve a very modern sustainable business era of the global economy. IJBMS intends to focus on the business and management issues with the vision of sustainable competitiveness along with scientific evidences. The quantitative approach for analyzing a research problem is promoted by IJBMS.
