The shortage of professional nurses in a hospital is to threaten service quality and patient safety. Inadequate compensation, no career development, and dissatisfaction can increase turnover intention. Increasing professional nurses' resilience is better than recruiting new nurses from an economic perspective. The research analyzed the effect of compensation and carrier development on job satisfaction and the impact on nurses' turnover intention in a private hospital in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. A quantitative research design with the cross-sectional approach was used. The sampling technique was simple random sampling. The samples consisted of 47 nurses who made a self-reported by filling out the questionnaire. Data analysis used Partial Least Square. The study found that compensation and career development had direct and significant effects on Turnover Intention. Moreover, compensation and career development also had indirect and significant Turnover Intention effects through job satisfaction as the intervening variable.

This study aimed to investigate the impact of hotel employees’ perceived job embeddedness on job satisfaction, self-efficacy, turnover intention, job performance, and job commitment. The results showed that job embeddedness partially increased job satisfaction, while job satisfaction and self-efficacy reduced turnover intention and increased job performance and job commitment. Furthermore, job satisfaction and self-efficacy were found to play an important mediating role. Therefore, the theoretical framework, based on the results of this study, clearly demonstrated the causal relationship between the given variables, and adequately describes the goals of this study. The theoretical/practical implications are discussed in detail in the conclusion.

Purpose Psychological Capital (PsyCap), consisting of hope, efficacy, resilience, and optimism, is a positive state associated with attitudes, behaviors and performance. The purpose of this paper is to investigate a dynamic mediational model posing work engagement as the mediator of the longitudinal relation between PsyCap and job performance. Design/methodology/approach Data came from all white collar employees who responded to this study’s variables (n=420) from a comprehensive data set drawn from a large communications service company over two consecutive years. Job performance was rated at the end of each year by the direct supervisor as part of the organizational appraisal system. Findings Structural equation modeling analysis found that both absolute levels and increases in PsyCap predicted subsequent work engagement increases which in turn predicted job performance increases. Moreover, the mediating role of the changes in work engagement between previous PsyCap and performance change was confirmed over time. Research limitations/implications There is much to gain in conceptualizing the relations among PsyCap, work engagement and job performance as dynamic, rather than static. The results support the conservation of resources theory, in which employees are motivated to acquire, protect and foster their valued (psychological) resources to attain successful performance outcomes, in order to create a gain cycle of resources (Salanova et al., 2010). Moreover, it provide further empirical validation for the idea that processes, like work engagement, are sustained by personal resources, and that these latter exerts mostly an indirect effect on organizational behavior outcomes (Xanthopoulou et al., 2009b). Practical implications These results are important from a practical point of view, because they point to the importance of training interventions aimed at developing and sustaining PsyCap as an important determinant of workers’ motivation and behavior within the organization. Considerable literature offers practical insights and guidelines for developing PsyCap (Luthans et al., 2006, 2015; Luthans and Youssef-Morgan, 2017). Originality/value Despite the demonstrated state-like, dynamic nature of PsyCap, its relationship with performance has mainly been statically analyzed and the role of possible mediating mechanisms largely ignored. This study begins to fill this research gap by investigating the dynamic nature of PsyCap in relation to work engagement and job performance and whether over time engagement mediates the relationship between PsyCap and job performance.

The worldwide economic crisis initiated by the COVID-19 pandemic certainly altered the perception of regular job insecurity dimensions and brought these to the ultimate level. When employees feel insecure, they may decide to participate in unethical behavior in the name of the company to avoid layoff and become retained employees. This study investigated the relationship between job insecurity and unethical organizational behavior through the mediating role of job embeddedness and turnover intention. A total of 685 employees working in five- and four-star hotels and category A travel agents participated in this study. Data were analyzed using structural equation modeling. Job embeddedness and turnover intention were found to be partially mediated by the impact of job insecurity on unethical organizational behavior. Theoretical and practical implications were identified and discussed.

Work engagement and workaholism. The role of psychological need satisfaction and consequences for performance Work engagement and workaholism. The role of psychological need satisfaction and consequences for performance Based on Deci and Ryan’s Self-Determination Theory, this study examined possible antecedents of work engagement and workaholism. Furthermore, it examined how these two types of heavy work investment relate to different aspects of job performance (in-role and extra-role performance, counterproductive behavior, and turnover intention). In total 275 health care employees in the Netherlands filled out an online questionnaire. Structural Equation Modeling showed that satisfaction of the psychological need for autonomy and relatedness was associated with work engagement, whereas failure to satisfy the psychological need for autonomy and competence was associated with workaholism. Furthermore, these two types of heavy work investment were positively related to extra-role behavior, and work engagement was negatively related to turnover intention. In addition, the analyses revealed that need satisfaction showed direct relationships with different aspects of job performance. This study offers practical suggestions for promoting work engagement and reducing workaholism, and for optimizing job performance.

Frequent turnover of employees began from the last century, increased further with the inception of turnover-prone millennial employees and is likely to continue in the future. This study used expectation–confirmation theory and Herzberg’s two-factor theory as the underpinning theory. Its calibrated factors such as transformational leadership, stress reduction, and compensation and rewards that affect employee retention mediating through job embeddedness. A simple random sampling technique was utilized while selecting the respondents from millennial employees in private sectors. For developing the model, Smart Partial Least Square (PLS) was applied for path modelling, measurement models as well as for bootstrapping while testing the hypotheses. The study found that all these factors have got a significant positive relationship as predicted. This study has got numerous contributions, which are beneficial for all stakeholders of private industries. Although the enormous studies have been carried out in the Western context, the problem of frequent millennial turnover remains unresolved both in the West and in non-Western context. Practically, the study will be helpful for all against the frequent turnover and its losses. The paucity of studies on transformational leadership, stress reduction, compensation and rewards, and the retention of millennial employees in a developing country’s context made this research more significant and relevant. The mediating role of job embeddedness was also found to be significant in this relationship. Finally, the study was found to have implications for all stakeholders and future researchers.
