İş güvencesizliğinin işten ayrılma niyeti ve ahlaki çözülme üzerindeki etkisi

Bankacılık sektörü küresel anlamda yaşanan finansal krizler ve teknolojik yeniliklerden dolayı personel devir hızının yüksek olduğu bir sektördür. Ülkemizde son beş yılda kapanan şube ve işten ayrılan personel sayısında önemli bir yükseliş vardır. Bu durumun banka çalışanlarının iş güvencesizliği, işten ayrılma niyeti ve ahlaki çözülme algıları üzerinde önemli bir etkisi vardır. Araştırmanın amacı, iş güvencesizliğinin işten ayrılma niyeti ve ahlaki çözülme üzerindeki etkisini incelemektir. Araştırmanın örneklemini Kars ilinde bulunan özel ve kamu bankalarında çalışan 133 iş gören oluşturmuştur. Araştırmada iş güvencesizliğinin işten ayrılma niyeti ile ahlaki çözülmeyi pozitif ve anlamlı olarak etkilediği bulgulanmıştır. İş güvencesizliğinin alt boyutlarından olan bilişsel iş güvencesizliği ile duygusal iş güvencesizliği işten ayrılma niyetini anlamlı ve pozitif etkilediği, ahlaki çözülmeyi ise anlamlı olarak etkilemediği bulgulanmıştır. Son olarak özel banka çalışanlarının kamu banka çalışanlarına göre iş güvencesizliği algısı daha yüksektir.

Effect of job insecurity on intention to leave and moral disengagement

The banking sector has a respectively high personnel turnover rate due to recent global financial crises and technological advances. There has been a significant increase in the number of closed bank branches and banking personnel who recently left their jobs in Turkey during the last five years. Therefore, the underlying uncertain environment has an important impact on job insecurity, intention to leave and moral disengagement perceptions of banking sector employees as well. The main purpose of this study is to explore the effect of job insecurity on intention to leave and moral disengagement. The sample of the present study involves 133 employees currently working at both public and private banks in Kars province, Turkey. The results of this study reveal that job insecurity has a positive statistically significant effect on both intention to leave and moral disengagement. On the other hand, the empirical findings of this study indicate that emotional job insecurity, one of the sub-dimensions of job insecurity, has a positive statistically significant impact on intention to leave, whereas no significant impact was found between emotional job insecurity and moral disengagement. As expected, the analysis results also demonstrate that private bank employees have a higher job insecurity level than public bank counterparts.
