    Este artículo propone que la inseguridad que afrontan los empleados en el mercado de trabajo puede ser entendida como un concepto polifacético que enmarca la inseguridad en el trabajo, en el empleo y en el salario, así como las dimensiones cognitivas y afectivas de cada uno de ellos. Los resultados indican la validez del uso de este concepto para entender mejor cómo la inseguridad se relaciona con el bienestar mental afectando las funciones manifiestas y latentes del trabajo.

    This article proposes that the insecurity facing employees in the labour market can be viewed as a multifaceted concept that encompasses job insecurity, employment insecurity and income insecurity, as well as the cognitive and affective dimensions of each of these. The results indicate the validity of using this concept in order to better understand how insecurity relates to mental well-being by affecting both the manifest and latent functions of work
