Job Insecurity is emerging as a growing threat to the careers of aspiring, meritious and hardworking employees in our country due to various reasons such as high demand of jobs, and government's inability to meet such a high demand in a short period of time. This results in hiring of employees on temporary/contractual basis. This situation is especially bad among the teachers belonging to various government schools and colleges in Delhi. This research investigated emotional responses of Job Insecurity in terms of Turnover Intentions and lesser Organizational Commitment. Moderating role of Work Based Support for the proposed relations was also investigated. A sample of 110 temporary/contractual/ad-hoc teachers belonging to MOD schools and several colleges from a university was used for this study. 'Partial Least Square' technique of 'Structural Equation Modeling' was applied using 'SmartPLS 2.0.M3' to understand the proposed relationships. Results show that a feeling of Job Insecurity is responsible for both the Turnover Intention and lesser commitment towards the employing organization. Work Based Support was found to be a significant moderator for this relation, with employees receiving high Work Based Support found to be more capable of handling their emotional responses. Organizational implications have been suggested.Keywords
Job Insecurity, Turnover Intentions, Organizational Commitment, Work Based Support.
