With more and more companies hiring and firing employees, the term “job security” is more of a misnomer than anything else. But this is not mean that job security does not exist; just that the permanence of the term has changed.
Need of Job Security

Employees need to feel that their jobs are secure and that their contributions are appreciated. The companies realize this and often go out of their way to reward the employees for their contribution.
But the real fact is that no job is secure, at least not in the real sense anymore. That is why when you or anyone else applies for a job, they try to determine just how secure the new post would be, along with pay particulars.
How to make Your Job Secure?
It all comes down to how productive you are, and if this impacts your company’s bottom line, then the chances are that you would be let go. So to make sure that your job is secure, you would need to perform optimally.
Likewise, companies understand that employees who are overly anxious about their position do not make good workers and often reach out to them to ensure their job.
While you can work in a multi-national organization, it is only when you perform your optimal best to be secure in your job. It does not matter if the company is a small one or a large corporate. As long as you perform well, you should rest easy.
And of course, companies do hire and fire employees more regularly these days than before, so if you want to avoid being downsized, try to be more productive.
