The impact of this uncertainty is very significant, especially on employees' psychological well-being, which includes increased levels of stress, anxiety, as well as decreased work motivation and productivity. To overcome this problem, this research proposes several policy recommendations, including the need for more consistent contract policies, a more transparent communication system, and additional welfare support for employees.
