Abstract
The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of perceived uncertainty on employee’s job-related affective well-being (JAW). Desire for change as a response to uncertainty was also examined in terms of its moderating effect on the relationship between these two variables. The research is conducted by 217 participants from different sectors through online survey. Analyses proved that employees’ perceived uncertainty was significantly explaining their JAW. Besides, it was seen that desire for change has a partial moderating effect on this relationship. Regarding demographics, there were significant differences found in terms of gender, age, work and organizational tenure groups
