PerceivedJobSecurityanditsEffectsonJobPerformance:UnionizedVS.Non-UnionizedOrganizations

Abstract

This research examined whether perceived job security positively impacts the effectiveness of job performance among employees of unionized organizations vs employees of non-unionized organizations. Job security’s effect on job performance was identified, as well as the difference in the perception of job security among employees from unionized vs non-unionized organizations. The sample consisted of 100 employees from different positions and different organizations, with both union and non-union participation from the Miami International Airport. They were surveyed on a Likert scale questionnaire that had items targeted to measure their perception of job security, and job performance. The evidence yielded results that supported the literature review, and indicated that employees are more susceptible to show better performance in their work place when in the context of the security offered by unionized organizations. The results indicated that the security offered by union participant organizations can be used as a predictor of increased job performance, and to some extent to the employee’s behavior within the organization.
