Job insecurity is one of the main stressors for many employees. Hence, it is important to identify factors that can ameliorate its detrimental effects. In this respect, the present study examines the moderator role of organizational support, understood as a contextual factor in the relationship between job insecurity and its consequences. The sample comprised 859 employees from 42 Spanish organizations. Results showed that organizational support modulated the relationship between job insecurity and employees' reactions (i.e., job satisfaction, psychological health and intention to leave the organization). These results reveal the need to consider contextual factors such as organizational support in the study and intervention of job insecurity.
工作不安全感是许多员工面临的主要压力源之一。因此,识别能够减轻其不利影响的因素非常重要。在这方面,本研究考察了组织支持的调节作用,组织支持被视为工作不安全感与其后果之间关系中的一个情境因素。样本包括来自42家西班牙组织的859名员工。结果表明,组织支持调节了工作不安全感与员工反应(即工作满意度、心理健康和离职意愿)之间的关系。这些结果揭示了在工作不安全感的研究和干预中需要考虑诸如组织支持等情境因素。
