Job Insecurity, Work commitment, Contract EmployeesAbstract
Contract employees are workers who have limited certainty regarding employment status and job continuity. This condition may lead to feelings of Job Insecurity, which potentially affect employees’ level of work commitment. This study aims to examine the relationship between Job Insecurity and work commitment among contract employees in digital marketing companies in Yogyakarta. The population of this study consisted of contract employees working in digital marketing companies in Yogyakarta. The research sample included 139 employees selected using a simple random sampling technique. Data were collected using two instruments, namely the Job Insecurity Scale and the Work Commitment Scale. The data were analyzed using the Pearson Product Moment correlation test. The results showed a significant negative relationship between Job Insecurity and work commitment (r = -0.715; p = 0.000). The coefficient of determination (r²) of 51.1% indicates that Job Insecurity contributes 51.1% to work commitment. These findings suggest that the higher the level of Job Insecurity experienced by contract employees, the lower their work commitment, and vice versa. Based on these findings, companies are expected to minimize Job Insecurity through clear and supportive employment policies in order to enhance the work commitment of contract employees.
