This study was conducted to assess the impact of job insecurity and the level of social support perceived on the stress levels of self-employed individuals amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. Utilizing a descriptive-correlational research design, the study sampled 150 self-employed persons from Ardabil through convenience sampling method. The instruments employed for data gathering were the Job Stress Questionnaire (JSQ), Job Security Questionnaire (JSQ), and Perceived Social Support Questionnaire (PSSQ). Analytical procedures involved Pearson's correlation coefficient and stepwise regression analysis. The findings indicated that familial social support (β=-0.36), economic contentment (β=-0.34), and the selection of an appropriate occupation (β=-0.17) significantly forecasted job-related stress. These factors accounted for 38% variance in job stress levels. The study concludes that enhanced perceptions of job security and social support appear to mitigate stress among self-employed individuals. This factor gains heightened significance during difficult periods such as the COVID-19 pandemic.
