Effects of chronic job insecurity
- Reduced emotional stability. Chronic job insecurity can cause us to become anxious, tense, irritable, and depressed.
- Reduced agreeableness. Agreeable people are naturally focused on sympathy, co-operation, and helping others. Chronic job insecurity shifts our focus to be more on ourselves instead of on others and can affect our standing as a positive and likable person.
- Reduced conscientiousness. When we're always worried about our jobs, we are likely to become less motivated to put in an effort.
