Abstract








Besides, there are many social, psychological and economic factors, or in other words, internal and external
factors, affecting labor force and employment; it could be observed that people who have similar human capital
accumulation work for different jobs under different titles or they work with different salary levels and in diffe-
rent labor force markets (primary and secondary labor force markets). As above stated, many variables could be
attributed to this differentiation, however, in this study, the effect of self-confidence and self-efficacy of people
in the labor force on their status in the labor force market and their entrance to the labor force is analyzed with
a literature research.


According to the research results, high level of self-efficacy causes an increase in both job performance and
productivity and it eliminates negative thoughts including worry and stress, sometimes occurred in working
life. Additionally, people who have higher levels of self-confidence have low levels of anxiety, higher level of
satisfaction from business and their daily lives, ability to deal with managerial stress more successfully, have
greater advantage on business and being recruited for a job.

Öz Yeterlilik ve Özgüvenin İşgücü ve İstihdama Etkisine Bir Bakış

Abstract

İşgücü ve istihdama
etki eden pek çok sosyal, ruhsal, ekonomik faktörler ya da bir başka bakış
açısıyla içsel ya da dışsal faktörler olmakla birlikte benzer beşeri sermaye
birikimine sahip kişilerin farklı işlere ve farklı statülere sahip olduğu veya
farklı ücret düzeylerinde ve farklı işgücü piyasası türlerinde (birincil ve
ikincil işgücü piyasaları) çalıştıkları görülmektedir. Bu farklılığın sebebi
olabilecek biraz öncede belirtilen pek çok değişken olabilmekle birlikte bu
çalışmada işgücü piyasasında emeğini ortaya koyan kişilerin özgüvenlerinin ve
öz yeterliliklerinin işgücü piyasasındaki konumlarını ya da işgücü piyasasına
girişlerini ne şekilde etkilediği yapılan literatür araştırması ile ortaya
konulmaya çalışılmıştır.



Çalışma sonucunda yüksek
öz yeterliliğin hem iş performansında ve verimlilikte artışa sebep olduğu hem
de çalışma hayatında zaman zaman ortaya çıkan kaygı ve stres gibi olumsuz
düşünceleri engellediği görülmüştür. Ayrıca yüksek özgüven sahibi kişilerin
düşük anksiyete düzeyleri, daha yüksek iş ve genel hayattan tatmin, yönetimsel
stresle daha iyi baş edebilme ve iş hayatlarında ve istihdam edilmelerinde
büyük bir avantaj sağladıkları gibi çıkarımlara varılmıştır.
