摘要

背景:由于新冠肺炎疫情，许多员工失去了工作。与此同时，由于“新常态”要求他们在家办公，数百万人被迫搬迁。如果雇主没有为在家工作的员工提供适当的支持，在家工作就会给他们带来困难。因此，它显著影响员工绩效和组织。目的:运用压力理论评估新冠肺炎期间的感知工作不安全感和感知就业能力。该研究调查了感知到的工作不安全感以及由此产生的工作压力，这些压力会导致不利的工作结果。方法:作者收集了两家跨国公司的资料，并收集了两波纵向数据。作者使用层次回归进行数据分析。结果:工作不安全感与工作压力呈显著正相关。工作环境中的不安全感也在增加，这对员工的生产力产生了不利影响。有调节的中介分析表明，感知就业能力对工作压力和工作结果有显著的间接影响。结论:本研究扩展了我们的知识，并增加了与COVID-19有关的工作场所压力理论的文献。

Job insecurity in COVID-19: A longitudinal study

BACKGROUND: Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, many employees lost their jobs. At the same time, millions of individuals have been forced to relocate because of a “new normal, “ which requires them to work from home offices. Working from home poses difficulties for employees whose employers do not provide appropriate support to their home workplaces. Hence, it significantly affected employee performance and organizations. OBJECTIVE: This study utilizes stress theories to evaluate perceived job insecurity and perceived employability during COVID-19. The research examined perceived job insecurity and the resulting work stress, which led to adverse work outcomes. METHODS: The authors collected information from two multinational corporations and gathered longitudinal data in two waves. The authors used hierarchical regression for our data analysis. RESULTS: The findings indicated a substantial positive relationship between perceived job insecurity and work stress. Job insecurity in working environment has also increased, adversely affecting employee productivity. It follows from the moderated mediation analysis that perceived employability significantly impacts indirectly on work stress and outcomes. CONCLUSION: This study expands our knowledge and adds to the literature on workplace stress theories regarding COVID-19.

期刊介绍： Human Systems Management (HSM) is an interdisciplinary, international, refereed journal, offering applicable, scientific insight into reinventing business, civil-society and government organizations, through the sustainable development of high-technology processes and structures. Adhering to the highest civic, ethical and moral ideals, the journal promotes the emerging anthropocentric-sociocentric paradigm of societal human systems, rather than the pervasively mechanistic and organismic or medieval corporatism views of humankind’s recent past. Intentionality and scope Their management autonomy, capability, culture, mastery, processes, purposefulness, skills, structure and technology often determine which human organizations truly are societal systems, while others are not. HSM seeks to help transform human organizations into true societal systems, free of bureaucratic ills, along two essential, inseparable, yet complementary aspects of modern management: a) the management of societal human systems: the mastery, science and technology of management, including self management, striving for strategic, business and functional effectiveness, efficiency and productivity, through high quality and high technology, i.e., the capabilities and competences that only truly societal human systems create and use, and b) the societal human systems management: the enabling of human beings to form creative teams, communities and societies through autonomy, mastery and purposefulness, on both a personal and a collegial level, while catalyzing people’s creative, inventive and innovative potential, as people participate in corporate-, business- and functional-level decisions. Appreciably large is the gulf between the innovative ideas that world-class societal human systems create and use, and what some conventional business journals offer. The latter often pertain to already refuted practices, while outmoded business-school curricula reinforce this problematic situation.
