Today economy is not stable, Hence the jobs are also wobbling.

Even the big


companies in the country have to lay-off their employees during their cost cutting
period. Money does play an important role in motivating an employee to perform
his best but with job security, he can fearlessly with confidence. And this can
prove to be beneficial for both the employee and the employer. Securely growing
with the growth of the company is the safest way to live life.
 Salary is usually determined by job requirements and responsibilities. If you
decide to take a better paying job, you have to be prepared to assume greater
responsibilities.
 Attention to job security is important because insecurity is associated with
several factors that compromise performance, including an intention to quit,
reduced commitment, and reduced job satisfaction (S. Ashford et al.,
“Content, Causes, and Consequences of Job Insecurity: A Theory-Based
Measure and Substantive Test”, Academy of Management Journal, 1989,
Vol. 32, No. 4, pp. 803-829). Job insecurity can also reduce organizational
performance because of its detrimental effect on employees’ health: reduced
psychological well-being, psychosomatic complaints and physical strains
(H. De Witte, “Job insecurity and Psychological Wellbeing: Review of the
Literature and Exploration of Some Unresolved Issues”, European Journal
of Work and Organizational Psychology, 1999, Vol. 8 (2), pp. 155-177).
