Abstract

In today's economic and social conditions where uncertainty is high, the legal and social dimensions of employment policies have gained importance, and it has become even more important to examine the relationship between job security and job performance for employees and organizations. Organizations need high-performing employees to achieve their goals and gain competitive advantage in their industries. Organizational commitment, defined as the employee's sense of belonging to the organization, and the motivation that pushes the individual to act in line with a goal, have psychological effects on the relationship between job security and job performance. The data collected from 582 people working in the banking sectors of Northern Cyprus, the psychological effects of organizational commitment and motivation in the relationship between perceived job security and job performance, are analysed and their positive contributions are observed. The job security provided has a positive effect on organizational outputs.
