İş Güvensizliği Algısının Sosyal Kaytarma Davranışı Üzerindeki Etkisinde Benlik Saygısının Aracılık Rolü

Öz

Bu çalışma, karmaşık ve belirsiz iş dünyasında günümüzde daha da belirgin hale gelen iş güvencesizliği algısı ile sosyal kaytarma davranışı arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Bu ilişkide ise benlik saygısının aracılık rolü araştırılmıştır. Literatürde, iş güvencesizliği algısı ile sosyal kaytarma davranışı arasındaki ilişkide benlik saygısı değişkenini aracı değişken olarak kullanan bir çalışmaya rastlanmadığı için bu çalışmanın önemi ortaya çıkmakta ve çalışma bu açıdan özgün bir çalışma olmaktadır. Araştırmada, İstanbul’da çalışmakta olan 248 beyaz yakalı çalışandan anket yöntemiyle alınan veriler kullanılmıştır. Çalışmanın sonuçlarına göre iş güvencesizliği algısının sosyal kaytarma davranışı üzerinde pozitif bir etkisi bulunmuştur. Bulgulara göre benlik saygısı, sosyal kaytarma davranışını negatif yönde etkilemektedir. Araştırmada aynı zamanda benlik saygısının, iş güvencesizliği algısının sosyal kaytarma davranışı üzerindeki etkisinde kısmen aracı rolü oynadığı bulunmuştur. Ayrıca, değişkenlerin demografik verilere göre anlamlı şekilde farklılaşıp farklılaşmadığı ortaya konulmuş ve sonuçlar tartışılmıştır. Araştırmanın sonuçlarına göre işletmelerin yönetimlerini iş güvencesini ön planda tutan bir iş ortamı oluşturmaları, iş stresini minimuma indirmeleri, çalışanların fikirlerini almaları ve işe alım süreçlerinde benlik saygısı yüksek bireyleri tespit ederek öncelik vermeleri tavsiye edilmiştir.

The Mediating Role of Self-Esteem in the Effect of Job Insecurity Perceptions on Social Loafing Behavior

Öz

This study aims to examine the relationship between job insecurity perception, which has become more evident in today’s complex and uncertain business world, and social loafing behavior, focusing specifically on the mediating role of self-esteem. As no previous study in the literature has examined self-esteem as a mediating variable between job insecurity perception and social loafing behavior, the significance of this study becomes evident, marking its originality. The study utilized survey data collected from 248 white-collar employees working in Istanbul. The study’s results reveal that job insecurity perception positively influences social loafing behavior. Additionally, self-esteem negatively impacts social loafing behavior and partially mediates the relationship between job insecurity perception and social loafing. The study also reveals whether the variables differ significantly according to demographic data, and the results are discussed. Based on these findings, it is recommended that businesses foster a work environment that emphasizes job security, reduces workplace stress, seeks employee input, and prioritizes candidates with high self-esteem during recruitment.
