Abstract

Despite their social mission, social enterprises work in the changing global economic environment and therefore face to comply with performance objectives. This situation means that human resources management strategy has a crucial role to play. Especially, the challenge in maintaining competitive efficiency depends on achieving a lower level of employee turnover. This study aims to investigate the role of job insecurity, job satisfaction, relationship with customers regarding the intention of retention among social enterprise workers. Data were collected in South Korea from 271 women employees in 36 social enterprises and the binomial logistic regression was used to assess the model hypothesized. As the result, social enterprise employees showed a considerably positive attitude toward the intent to stay their workplace. However, job insecurity appeared to have the strongest negative effect on the intention of retention, whereas job satisfaction and relationship with customers had the positive effects, above and beyond demographic variables and organization variables. The result suggested the human resource management can play a significant role in retaining social enterprise employees by reducing job instability and improving job satisfaction and customers management.

사회적기업은 사회적 미션에도 불구하고, 급변하는 글로벌 환경에서 경제적 성과 목표에도 응해야 한다. 이러한 상황은 인적자원관리 전략이 중요한 역할을 지님을 의미한다. 특히 경쟁력있는 효율성을 유지하기 위한 과제는 근로자 이직을 낮추는데 달려 있다. 본 연구는 사회적기업 근로자를 대상으로 재직 의도에 영향을 끼치는 직무불안, 직무만족, 고객과의 관계의 영향력을 검증하고자 한다. 조사 대상은 서울 경기 지역의 36곳의 사회적기업 여성 근로자 271명으로 삼았고, 이항로짓회귀분석(Binominal Logistic regression)을 적용하였다. 연구결과, 사회적기업 근로자의 재직 의도는 상당히 긍정적인 수준으로 높게 나타났다. 하지만 사회적기업 근로자의 직무불안정성은 재직 의도에 부정적인 영향을 끼치는 반면 직무만족과 고객와의 관계는 재직 의도에 긍정적인 요인으로 밝혀졌다. 결론적으로 사회적기업의 지속가능성을 위한 근로자의 근속 유지를 위해서는 인적자원 관리가 중요한 역할을 할 수 있음을 밝히고 직무 환경 개선을 위한 관리적 함의를 도출하였다.
