International Review of Administrative SciencesSummary: This research examines perceptions of organizational uncertainty among Korean public employees during an administrative paradigm shift. Using the data from Korean public employees in the central ministries, this article explores the extent to which public employees perceive organizational uncertainty and how separate instances of perceived uncertainty are associated. The findings reveal four dimensions of uncertainty; structural and systematic; new administrative demand; job-related; and unpredictability in the decision-making process. In addition, all of these types of uncertainty are linked; new administrative demand uncertainty has a strong influence on the other three. This research concludes by suggesting the roles of leaders in solving uncertain aspects from an increased burden of administrative reform. - Reproduced.
