Привет! Это мой подкаст «По-русски легко!». De cette petite histoire, vous apprenez le nomы des vêtements différents et un proverbe russe. J’utilise des mots dans le cas génitif et verbes imparfaits et parfaits.
Катя любит красиво и модно одеваться. Сегодня Катя открыла шкаф и подумала: «Мне нужна новая одежда!». В шкафу было много платьев, несколько джинсов, восемь свитеров, двадцать одна блузка и три пальто… Все женщины знают эту ситуацию: шкаф полный, а надеть нечего. Катя пошла в магазин. Там она долго выбирала, что лучше купить. И Катя купила красивый шерстяной шарф и тёплые перчатки.  Это был удачный шоппинг!

Job insecurity is the feeling of uncertainty or anxiety about the continued existence of your employment. It's the opposite of job security, where there's confidence your position is stable. Job insecurity can be triggered by actual threats like company restructuring, economic downturns, or technological advancements, or it can be a perceived threat based on factors like short-term contracts, limited job control, or a lack of clear career advancement opportunities.

While the fear of job loss might be the main concern, job insecurity goes beyond that. It encompasses feelings of powerlessness, a lack of control over your future, and potential negative consequences like stress, anxiety, and decreased motivation. This can impact not just employee well-being but also company performance through lower productivity, increased absenteeism, and higher turnover.

Job insecurity is a complex issue with various causes and effects. Understanding it allows businesses to create a work environment that fosters security and reduces employee anxiety. This can involve providing clear communication about company goals and employee roles, offering opportunities for professional development, and promoting work-life balance initiatives. By addressing job insecurity, businesses can create a more stable and productive workforce. 

A business coach, like myself, can be a valuable asset in combating job insecurity within a company. They can work with managers to develop transparent communication strategies, ensuring employees understand their roles and the company's direction. Additionally, the coach can guide managers in crafting career development plans for employees, fostering a sense of growth and opportunity. By creating a culture that values continuous learning and clear communication, business coaches empower employees and mitigate the anxieties associated with job insecurity.
