Key Points

To assess how awareness of smart technology, artificial intelligence, robotics, and algorithms affects perceived job insecurity, and to evaluate the moderating effects of organizational culture.
Conducted an empirical survey of employees working in industries facing high levels of automation (N = 291).
Evaluated the moderating roles of authoritarian organizational culture, learning culture, and retraining expectations on the link between technology awareness and job insecurity.
Awareness of smart technologies, AI, robotics, and algorithms showed a statistically significant positive relationship with perceived job insecurity.
An authoritarian organizational culture significantly amplified the positive association between automation awareness and perceived job insecurity.
The anticipated moderating effect of retraining expectations was not statistically supported.
