The study examines how workplace incivility relates to job insecurity and employee deviance, with particular attention to employment status differences. Researchers collected 648 responses from Israeli employees in 2014 using online surveys and structural equation modeling. The findings confirm that incivility would have a positive impact on job insecurity and employee deviance. The research reveals that employees in precarious work arrangements experience stronger negative effects from uncivil workplace interactions compared to those with secure employment positions. The contribution addresses a research gap by demonstrating deviant behavioral outcomes stemming from incivility. The authors contextually frame this micro-level interpersonal behavior within broader employment relationship dynamics, recognizing that precarious employment is increasingly common. Methodologically, the study presents an abbreviated version of Robinson and Bennett's workplace deviance measurement tool tailored to their theoretical framework.
