The purpose of this article is to understand the experience of workers' perceptions of job insecurity and its relation to performance. To this end, we conducted semi-structured interviews with 38 workers in the retail, services, education, financial, construction, and pharmaceutical industries in Chile. Using content analysis based on workers' accounts of their own experience, we identified two main categories: (a) the experience of job insecurity viewed in relation to the context of the COVID-19 pandemic and emotional aspects of job insecurity, and (b) the relation between job insecurity and performance. The possibility of job loss expresses itself in experiences and emotions that are related to the performance of workers in different ways. These findings are discussed in terms of stress theory and the motivation to preserve jobs.
本文旨在了解工人对工作不安全感的体验及其与绩效的关系。为此，我们对智利零售、服务、教育、金融、建筑和制药行业的 38 名工人进行了半结构化访谈。我们根据工人对自身经历的描述，采用内容分析法，确定了两个主要类别：(a)与 COVID-19 大流行背景相关的工作不安全感体验和工作不安全感的情绪方面，以及 (b)工作不安全感与绩效之间的关系。失业的可能性表现在与工人绩效以不同方式相关的经历和情绪中。这些发现是根据应激理论和保留工作的动机来讨论的。
