Abstract:
Objective:To explore the effect of job insecurity on work engagement, and examine the mediating role of job satisfaction and the moderating role of occupational proactive behavior.Methods:Using the convenient sampling method, nurses from Southern University of Science and Technology Hospital and Jiangyou Second People's Hospital were selected as the research objects in July 2022. General information questionnaire, Occupational Insecurity Scale, Occupational Satisfaction Scale, Work Engagement Scale and Occupational Proactive Behavior were used for questionnaire investigation. A total of 598 valid questionnaires were collected. Model 4 and Model 7 in the SPSS 22.0 Process were used to test the mediating effect and the moderated mediating effect respectively.Results:Occupational insecurity was negatively correlated with occupational satisfaction and work engagement ( r=-0.202, -0.165, P<0.01) , while occupational satisfaction was positively correlated with work engagement ( r=0.549, P<0.01) . Work satisfaction played a completely mediating role in the effect of job insecurity on work engagement (mediating effect value: -0.090 9, 95% confidence interval: -0.14 - -0.04) , accounting for 65.30% of the total effect. Occupational active behavior positively moderated the relationship between job insecurity and job satisfaction (β=0.07, P<0.01) . Conclusions:Nurses' work engagement is at a high level, but occupational insecurity will reduce nurses' job satisfaction and thus reduce their work engagement. Nurses with high occupational proactive behavior can alleviate the weakening of job insecurity on job satisfaction.
