Job performance manages the information, skills, mentality and information that are obliged to help carry out the task of the company in the set of expectations of the organization. Work performance can be distinguished into two different classifications, which include task- and context-related behavior (counterproductive behavior and citizenship behavior) (Rotundo & Sackett, 2002). Rotundo and Sackett (2002) stated that one of the behaviors related to task performance has the ability to transform company resources into a commodity. Overall, organizations consistently use job execution, which aims to ensure maximum work performance potential for each worker. However, the personality has recently gained much consideration from numerous organizations. This is because the relationship between personality and job performance is a distinctive basis of the surrounding workforce. Furthermore, job performance can be capable of leading the organization to success or failure.

While researchers such as Dunn, Mount, Barrick and Ones (1995 as cited Rothmann & Coetzer, 2003) added that the second most critical trait influencing the employability of candidates is emotional stability. In a late finding, Judge, Higgins, Thoresen, and Barrick (1999, cited in Moutafi, Furnham, & Crumo, 2007) stated that job performance and neuroticism have an inverse relationship. However, Salgado (1997, cited in Rothmann and Coetzer, 2003) suggested that job performance may be anticipated under some conditions by neuroticism.
