Abstract

Purpose of this research study was to investigate the impact of job insecurity on
interpersonal conflict. The study also explores the mediating role of insomnia and
moderating role of neuroticism. The survey was conducted on female workers of
different organizations located in Pakistan and Azad Jammu and Kashmir. Data
were collected using questionnaire from 285 female workers. Results suggested that
job insecurity is positively associated with interpersonal conflict, and insomnia plays
its role as a mediator between job insecurity and interpersonal conflict; whereas,
neuroticism moderates the relationship of insomnia and interpersonal conflict.
The study concludes with some implications and provides directions for the future
