Hubungan Toxic Workplace Environment dan Job Insecurity

Introduction

Hubungan toxic workplace environment dan job insecurity. Temukan hubungan kuat antara lingkungan kerja toksik dan ketidakamanan kerja pada karyawan di Semarang. Penelitian ini mengkaji dampak negatif tempat kerja beracun.

Abstract

Dalam suatu organisasi, lingkungan kerja tidak hanya mencakup aspek fisik tempat kerja saja tetapi juga dinamika interpersonal dan budaya perusahaan yang membentuk pengalaman kolektif karyawan. Namun, tidak semua lingkungan kerja memberikan rasa aman, dukungan dan motivasi bagi individu yang bekerja di perusahaannya. Lingkungan kerja toksik merupakan fenomena yang dapat menimbulkan dampak yang merugikan, tidak hanya bagi keamanan kerja individu tetapi juga bagi kinerja organisasi secara keseluruhan. Penelitian ini merupakan studi populasi menggunakan teknik sampling jenuh dengan sampel sebanyak 101 pegawai pada Kantor Sekretariat DPRD Kota Semarang. Berdasarkan hasil uji korelasi Spearman ditemukan bahwa terdapat hubungan antara toxic workplace environment dan job insecurity (r = 0,664; p < 0,05). Maka dari itu, hipotesis penelitian diterima yaitu terdapat hubungan antara toxic workplace environment dan job insecurity. Peneliti selanjutnya diharapkan dapat memperluas populasi penelitian, dan memperluas cakupan variabel

Review

This study investigates the crucial relationship between toxic workplace environments and job insecurity, a highly relevant topic given the increasing awareness of organizational culture's impact on employee well-being and retention. The abstract clearly outlines the premise that a supportive work environment is vital, and conversely, toxic conditions can significantly detriment individual security and overall organizational performance. The research posits a direct link between these two phenomena, aiming to empirically validate this connection within a specific organizational context. The methodology employed in this study is straightforward, utilizing a population study approach with saturation sampling (101 employees) from the Kantor Sekretariat DPRD Kota Semarang. This provides a focused examination within a governmental setting. The use of Spearman's correlation coefficient is appropriate for assessing the strength and direction of the relationship between the two variables. The finding of a significant positive correlation (r = 0.664; p < 0.05) strongly supports the hypothesis that a toxic workplace environment is indeed associated with increased job insecurity. This quantitative result is clearly presented and provides a solid empirical basis for the study's conclusion. While the findings are compelling and contribute to the understanding of workplace dynamics, certain aspects warrant further consideration. The study's confined scope to a single governmental office in Semarang, while allowing for saturation sampling, limits the generalizability of the findings across different industries, organizational structures, or cultural contexts. Furthermore, as a correlational study, it establishes an association but cannot infer causality. Future research, as also suggested by the authors, would benefit immensely from expanding the population and incorporating additional variables, perhaps exploring potential mediating factors (e.g., leadership styles, communication patterns) or moderating variables. Longitudinal studies could also provide insights into the temporal relationship and potential causal pathways between toxic environments and job insecurity, thereby enriching the current understanding.
