Increased global competition due to
continuous change results in an era of progress, especially
in the economic sphere. The uncertain economic situation
poses a threat to employee job security. Of course, at this
time employees feel their jobs are at stake. Job insecurity
is defined as a mismatch between what individuals want
and what individuals get. This study was conducted to
further discuss what are the antecedents and
consequences of job insecurity in employees. This study
uses a systematic review method with narrative
techniques. A total of 27 selected journals were used for
review. From the analysis of this journal, the antecedents
of job insecurity are grouped into two, those from the
organization and the environment, as well as those from
individuals. Similarly, the consequences of job insecurity
are grouped into two, those to the organization and the
individual. Thus, this study suggests organizations pay
attention to the tendency of job insecurity in employees
and handle it with open communication, employee
involvement, and job resources. Meanwhile, employees
need awareness to increase personal resources.
