Abstract: There are unsettled and unsettling times. We hear stories of increasing worry and concern over job security and financial well-being. As the job market shrinks, more people lose their jobs and job searches become increasingly competitive. Some may settle for jobs for which they are overqualified, and become underemployed. Those who keep their jobs may still be concerned about losing them, especially in economically vulnerable industries. Financial insecurity is often coupled with unemployment, underemployment, and job insecurity. People use their income not only to acquire necessities like food and shelter, but also to achieve a comfortable lifestyle, pay off debts, and build a secure financial future. Clearly, when income is at risk, such goals cannot be met and people experience stress, among other adverse outcomes. There is no question that the recent economic crisis has wreaked havoc on companies and on families across the country. We are trying to reveal just how deeply the crunch is being felt in both public and private organizations. Recession has significantly increased the stress level of employees in recent months, the management has grown increasingly demanding over this period and employees are more concerned about their job status. As the study will show, employees in the private organizations are more stressed today and they have little confidence that the next work situation will be any more secure than the current one.
