İş Güvencesizliğinin Zorunlu Vatandaşlık Davranışı Üzerindeki Etkisi

Abstract

Bu çalışmanın temel amacı iş güvencesizliğinin zorunlu vatandaşlık davranışı üzerindeki etkisini ortaya koymaktır. Bununla birlikte iş güvencesizliğinin, çalışanların cinsiyetlerine ve eğitim durumlarına göre farklılık gösterip göstermediğinin incelenmesi de çalışmanın diğer bir amacıdır. Bu amaçla Araştırma, Doğu Karadeniz Bölgesinde faaliyet gösteren ve kartopu örnekleme yöntemi ile ulaşılan 307 yerel ve zincir market çalışanının katılımı ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Elde edilen verilerin analizinde IBM SPSS 26 ve Mplus 7 programları kullanılmıştır. Analiz sonuçlarına göre iş güvencesizliğinin zorunlu vatandaşlık davranışı üzerinde anlamlı bir etkisi bulunmaktadır. Bunun yanında, iş güvencesizliğinin cinsiyete göre farklılık gösterdiği ve kadın çalışanlarda daha yüksek olduğu fakat eğitim durumu açısından anlamlı bir fark bulunmadığı araştırmadan elde edilen diğer sonuçlardır.
