摘要
This study analyzes U.S.-based survey data from the Pew Research Center and explores the relationships between perceived job insecurity, technology usage, and long-term projection on the transition toward the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Keen attention to the upcoming predicted changes in job, work, and employment due to technological revolution, such as robotics and artificial intelligence, will help fill a gap in prior research that heavily emphasized organizational and psychological aspects of job insecurity. The findings show that employees' present perception of job insecurity is highly associated with technology usage and long-term perceptions of job and work. This article contributes to a new direction of job insecurity research (i.e., linkage of job insecurity as an organizational and psychological concept with attitudes about technology adoption and use) and proposes practical suggestions (e.g., a proactive approach to adapting to technology-driven changes in organizations) to prepare for the transition toward the Fourth Industrial Revolution.
