There is a high level of unemployment in the country and many workers there are concerned about their job security. Job security refers to the objective dimensions of continuous contract, working full-time hours and paid and unpaid overtime. Job security also refers to the subjective dimension of perceived job security. We surveyed 407 employees in banking and related sectors' call centres, five-star hotel front-line staff and airline cabin crews. Results show that objective dimensions of job security are not associated with intention to stay. However, perceived job security is significantly and positively associated with intention to stay. We recommend that human resource managers focus on the perceived job security aspect of employment to keep valuable employees with the company.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessBusiness & economicsContinuous contractFull-time hoursIntention to stayOvertimePerceived job securityTurkish workersHuman-resource managementSatisfactionCommitmentTurnoverImpactWorkConsequencesPerspectivesQualityNursesArticle0003035629000102-s2.0-84860825180280928232313ManagementJob Insecurity; Temporary Employment; Perceived Employability
