以不确定性和模糊性为特征的工作条件是员工的潜在压力来源。其中一个压力源就是工作的不安全感。这项对207名汽车制造工人的纵向研究表明，长期的工作不安全感预示着工作满意度和身体症状随着时间的推移而发生变化。长期的工作不安全感降低了工作满意度，增加了身体症状，超过了工作不安全感在任何一个时间点上的影响。这些结果表明，工作不安全感是一种慢性压力源，其影响随着暴露时间的增加而变得更加强烈。工作场所卫生专业人员应制定战略，减少工作不安全对员工福祉的影响，特别是在就业机会减少的行业。
Work conditions characterized by uncertainty and ambiguity are potential stressors for employees. One such stressor is job insecurity. This longitudinal study of 207 automobile manufacturing workers indicates that chronic job insecurity is predictive of changes over time in both job satisfaction and physical symptoms. Extended periods of job insecurity decrease job satisfaction and increase physical symptomatology, over and above the effects of job insecurity at any single point in time. These results indicate that job insecurity acts as a chronic stressor whose effects become more potent as the time of exposure increases. Worksite health professionals should develop strategies for reducing the impact of job insecurity on employee well-being, particularly in industries where employment opportunities are declining.
