Job insecurity
ongoing feeling of concern about whether one's job will exist in the future, that can be fuelled by perceived threats to various aspects of a job, such as position within an organisation or career development opportunities
Overall, work-related stress, anxiety and depression are common due to the precarious nature of most jobs, job insecurity , work intensification, working for multiple employers, continual monitoring, working alongside robots and pressure to increase productivity from AI systems (known as the 'digital whip').
