Job security through obscurity
- Job security through obscurity
Job security through obscurity (sometimes job security by obscurity) is a controversial tactic or strategy for career development, which attempts to achieve job security by keeping a low profile. A person relying on job security through obscurity may be incompetent, but believe that their flaws are not known, and that clients or employers are unlikely to find them. The technique stands in contrast with job security by good work, although many people rely on both strategies.
