Algılanan İş Güvencesizliğinin Yaşam Doyumu Üzerindeki Etkisinde İşten Ayrılma Niyetinin Aracılık Rolü

Amaç – Bu çalışmanın amacı, kamu çalışanlarının algılanan iş güvencesizliğinin yaşam doyumu üzerindeki etkisinde işten ayrılma niyetinin aracılık rolünü analiz etmektir. Yöntem – Bu çalışmada algılanan iş güvencesizliğinin yaşam doyumu üzerindeki etkisinde işten ayrılma niyetinin etkisi olup olmadığını belirlemek için nicel araştırma yöntemlerinden ilişkisel tarama modeli kullanılmıştır. Bu amaç doğrultusunda Konya ilinde kamu kurumlarında çalışan 425 kişiden basit tesadüfî örneklem aracılığıyla anket yöntemiyle veriler elde edilmiştir. Araştırmadaki veriler 2019 yılı Ekim-Aralık ayları arasında toplanmıştır. Araştırma kapsamında çalışanların algılanan iş güvencesizliği düzeylerinin belirlenmesinde De Cuyper ve arkadaşları (2010) tarafından geliştirilen ve Seçer (2011)’in çalışmasında kullandığı algılanan iş güvencesizliği ölçeği, işten ayrılma niyetlerinin belirlenmesinde Mobley (1977) geliştirdiği ölçek ve yaşam doyumunun belirlenmesinde ise Diener ve arkadaşlarının (1985) geliştirdiği ayrıca Köker (1991)’in Türkçeye uyarladığı ölçek kullanılmıştır. Araştırma değişkenlerine güvenirlilik analizi yapılmış, ardından aralarındaki ilişkiyi incelemek için korelasyon ve çoklu regresyon analizleri yapılarak araştırmanın hipotezleri test edilmiştir. Bulgular – Araştırma bulgularına göre, kamu çalışanlarının algılanan iş güvencesizliğinin işten ayrılma niyetlerini pozitif yönde etkilediği yaşam doyumunu da negatif yönde etkilediği bulunmuştur. Benzer şekilde kamu çalışanlarının işten ayrılma niyetlerinin yaşam doyumunu ve algılanan iş güvencesizliğinin ise yaşam doyumunu negatif yönde etkilediği bulunmuştur. Ayrıca, algılanan iş güvencesizliğinin yaşam doyumu üzerindeki etkisinde işten ayrılma niyetinin aracılık rolü oynadığı görülmüştür. Tartışma – Bu sonuçlar dikkate alındığında bu çalışmada algılanan iş güvencesizliği, yaşam doyumu ve işten ayrılma niyeti değişkenlerinin bir arada ele alınması ve örgütsel davranış yazınında bu değişkenleri bir arada ele alan çalışmaya rastlanılmamış olması çalışmanın kalitesini artırmaktadır. Gelecekte özellikle bu değişkenlerin farklı değişkenlerle ve özel sektör çalışanlarıyla araştırma konusu olarak ele alınması önerilmektedir.

The Mediating Role of Turnover Intention on the Effect of Perceived Job Insecurity on Life Satisfaction

Purpose – The purpose of this study is to analyse the mediating role of turnover intention on the effect of civil servants’ perceived job security on life satisfaction. Design/methodology/approach – In this study, the correlational survey model, one of the quantitative research methods, was used in order to determine whether perceived job insecurity has an effect on life satisfaction or not. For this purpose, data was collected from 425 people working in public institutions in Konya province through simple random sampling using questionnaire method. Data of the study were collected between the months of October and December in 2019. Perceived job security scale developed by De Cuyper and colleagues (2010) and used by Seçer (2011) was used in order to measure perceived job security. The scale developed by Mobley (1977) was used for the purpose of identifying turnover intention. The scale developed by Diener and colleagues (1985) and adapted to Turkish by Köker (1991) was used in order to measure life satisfaction. Reliability analysis was performed on the research variables, then the hypotheses of the research was tested by performing correlation and multiple regression analyzes to examine the relationship between them. Findings – Research findings suggest that civil servants’ perceived job insecurity has a positive impact on turnover intention and a negative impact on life satisfaction. Similarly, it was found out that civil servants’ turnover intention and perceived job insecurity have a negative effect on life satisfaction. Moreover, it was observed that turnover intention has a mediating role on the effect of perceived job insecurity on life satisfaction. Discussion – Taking these results into account, this study discusses the variables of perceived job insecurity, life satisfaction and turnover intention altogether. It was seen that there is no other study that covers these variables at the same time, which increases the quality of this study. In the future, it is recommended that these variables be addressed with different variables and private sector employees as a research topic.
