Job insecurity represents a prevailing problematic issue for many employed people. In this study we examined chosen individual and organizational consequences of the job insecurity. On the individual level we focused of job satisfaction, whereas on the organizational level we focused on affective commitment and turnover intentions. Research sample consisted of 111 respondents (men 45% and women 55%) acquired via non–probability sampling. The average age of respondents was 37,98 years (SD = 6,88). Four measures were used. Namely: Scale of affective and cognitive job insecurity (Elizur, & Borg, 1992), Job Satisfaction Scale (Warr, Cook, & Wall, 1979), Affective Commitment Scale (Meyer, & Allen, 1997) and Turnover intention scale (Roodt, 2004). The results suggested that job insecurity is significantly negatively associated with job satisfaction. Moreover affective job insecurity seems to be significant predictor of worsen job satisfaction. However, job insecurity was not significantly linked to affective commitment or to fluctuation. The present study provides results that are first of its kind acquired on the Slovak sample. Nevertheless more, preferably longitudinal, studies are needed on this topic.

Working conditions during the economic crisis of the first decade of the 21st century have been the object of extensive research. This study delves into the main risks facing workers subsequent to the recession and economic crisis of 2008-2014 and prior to the unsettling times provoked by the COVID-19 pandemic and the war in Ukraine. The choice of Spain as the study area stems from the deep effects of the economic crisis on this country and the fragmentation of its trade unions. Spain is likewise relevant as its authorities adopted two opposite strategies (respectively austerity followed by expansive investment) to cope and counter these problems over time. This qualitative study comprises in-depth interviews with 45 experts from various sectors of business. The findings suggest that factors such as persistent job insecurity and work overload profoundly affect the social environment and relationships of employees both at work and in the family generating individual coping strategies that weaken the role of trade unions.
