Yıl 2018, Sayı: 75, 307 - 326, 28.12.2018

Öz

Job insecurity is one of the most important and overarching issues facing employees in labour relations. It is important to know whether the unions aiming to protect the rights of employees and support them against the problems that arise in the working life have a functional role at the point of job insecurity. Main purpose of this study is to explore the impact of union membership and union satisfaction on job insecurity. In this context, questionnaire was applied to total of 222 research assistants working with 130;33/a and 92;50/d staff in Ataturk University. The data analysis includes descriptive statistic, t-test and a regression analysis through SPSS 22 program. In the study,  it was observed that union membership did not have significant impact on job insecurity but union satisfaction had negative significant impact on job insecurity. In addition, it was determined that researchers with 33/a staff had lower job insecurity than researchers with 50/d staff.

Sendika Üyeliği, Sendikal Memnuniyet ve İş Güvencesizliği İlişkisi: Araştırma Görevlileri Üzerinde Bir Uygulama

Yıl 2018, Sayı: 75, 307 - 326, 28.12.2018

Öz

İş güvencesizliği, iş ilişkileri ile ilgili olarak çalışanların karşı karşıya kaldığı en önemli ve üzerinde en çok durulan konulardan biridir. Çalışanların haklarını korumayı ve çalışma hayatında ortaya çıkan sorunlara karşı onları desteklemeyi amaçlayan sendikaların iş güvencesizliği noktasında işlevsel bir role sahip olup olmadığının bilinmesi önem arz etmektedir. Bu çalışmanın temel amacı sendikaya üye olma durumu ve sendikal memnuniyetin iş güvencesizliği üzerindeki etkisini araştırmaktır. Bu kapsamda Atatürk Üniversitesi’nde 130 33/a ve 92 50/d kadrosuna sahip olmak üzere toplamda 222 araştırma görevlisi üzerinde uygulama yapılmıştır. Anket tekniği ile elde edilen veriler SPSS 22 programında tanımlayıcı temel istatistik analizleri, t testi ve basit regresyon analiziyle değerlendirilmiştir. Çalışmada sendikaya üye olma durumunun iş güvencesizliği için anlamlı bir farklılığa sebep olmadığı fakat sendikal memnuniyetin iş güvencesizliği üzerinde negatif yönde anlamlı bir etkiye sahip olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Ayrıca 33/a kadrosuna sahip olan araştırma görevlilerinin 50/d kadrosuna sahip olan araştırma görevlilerine göre daha düşük seviyede iş güvencesizliğine sahip olduğu belirlenmiştir.
