This study aims to examine the relationship between turnover intention and some organisational factors among professional academics at Jordanian Government Universities. Namely the organisational factors include job satisfaction, work exhaustion, occupational health and safety management and organisational culture. A sample of 250 participants was extracted from different Jordanian universities. The participants were limited to academics in Jordan who are working in any government Jordanian University. Statistical analysis was conducted by using SPSS 23. Previous literature was also used to design a structured questionnaire. A total of 250 questionnaires were given out and 250 questionnaires were collected back. The study then conducted correlation and regression analysis to determine the relationship between the independent and the dependent variables. The models for multiple regression offer support for the relationship between turnover intention and organizational factors. The results revealed that the all the exogenous variables had a significant effect on the endogenous variable. Based on these results, the study implies that managers need to acknowledge the importance of examining the factors that reduce the turnover intentions of the employees and improve the commitment level for their employees.

Attrition is one of the biggest challenge for any industry as it comes with many demerits such as loss of productivity, incurring of various costs such as training & development, recruitment etc. According to the Compensation Trends Survey conducted by Deloitte Human Capital Consulting, the IT/ITES industries of the Indian market have faced 15% of the attrition that is higher for any industry. Thus, the companies of this industry are focusing to decrease the turnover intention in order to reduce the actual employee turnover. The aim of this research is to find out the influence that Job Satisfaction and organizational commitment have on the turnover intention on the employees. Various research suggests that organizational commitment and turnover intentions are negatively correlated. Also, the studies suggest that Job Satisfaction and employee turnover intentions have a negative relationship. This study has been conducted to examine the relationship between Job Satisfaction, organizational commitment, and turnover intention for the IT/ITES industry employees with a special focus to BPO segment. The researchers have taken data from 500 employees of the BPO segment from 3 major cities of Gujarat i.e. Ahmedabad, Gandhinagar and Baroda. The researchers have used Multiple regression and ANOVA to examine the influence of the organizational commitment & job satisfaction on the turnover intention. The result shows that higher level of organizational commitment reduced the turnover intention. This research can help the BPO organizations to formulate & implement the strong retention strategies. Also, this study provides a direction to the academicians to explore further dimensions of the research in the various industries as well as various regional backgrounds.

Recent research indicated that flexible work arrangements cannot only bring benefits for individuals and organizations but also pose various challenges. This study examined the relationship between telework and employee turnover intention and the roles of institutional and managerial support in moderating the relationship. The results showed that turnover intentions of nonteleworkers are significantly different depending on one’s ability to choose. Nonteleworkers by barrier reported the highest level of turnover intention, whereas nonteleworkers by choice expressed the lowest, even lower than that of teleworkers. Managerial and institutional support for telework decreased the intention of teleworkers to leave the agency further.

PurposeThe study is aimed at developing and testing a theoretical model where psychological capital acts as the intervening mechanism explicating the relationship between perceived overqualification (POQ) and turnover intention. It also explores how perceived supervisor support (PSS) influences the mediating role of psychological capital in the perceived overqualification and turnover intention association.Design/methodology/approachThe authors test the model through a sample data of 314 workers employed in the Indian IT service sector. IBM SPSS and SPSS AMOS software were utilized for conducting analysis and testing the model involving first-stage moderated mediation.FindingsThe study confirms that perceptions of overqualification have a positive relationship with turnover intentions. Further, it finds that the positive association between POQ and turnover intention will be mediated by psychological capital. The results reflected that perceived supervisor support shall weaken the relationship between perceptions of overqualification and psychological capital.Originality/valueThe research is amongst the limited researches which look at the influence of psychological capital and perceived supervisor support with regards to POQ. It attempts to lay down the underlying psychological mechanism of POQ and highlight the role played by perceived supervisor support.

Study Offer

In this study, the authors contribute insight into the relationship between pay satisfaction and turnover intention as well as between job satisfaction and turnover intention amongst young Indian professionals by segregating the respondents into two groups based on the median age. Data were collected from 230 working Indian executives, having median age of 25, from various industries such as Information Technology, Public Sector Units, Pharmacy, and Fast Moving Consumer Goods where they expressed their views on turnover intentions, job satisfaction & pay satisfaction in their respective organizations. The results revealed the negative relationship between turnover intention and job satisfaction and also between turnover intention and pay satisfaction. However, when age is introduced as a variable having a moderating effect on the above relationships, it was noticed that pay satisfaction is more significant than job satisfaction when it comes to intention to quit a job for employees who are relatively experienced having an age greater than the median age of 25; whereas, for employees less than the median age, turnover intention is driven more by job satisfaction than pay satisfaction. Findings from this study offer important implications for theory & research in turnover intention driven by factors like pay satisfaction and job satisfaction with the moderating effect of age of employees.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the relationship between managerialist employment relations and employee turnover intention in Nigeria. The study context is public hospitals in Nigeria, which have a history of problematic human resource management (HRM) practice, a non-participatory workplace culture, managerialist employment relations and a high employee turnover intention. Design/methodology/approach Based on a qualitative, interpretive approach, this paper investigates the process by which Nigerian employment relations practices trigger the employee turnover intention of doctors using 33 semi-structured interviews with key stakeholders in public hospitals. Findings This study found that Nigeria’s managerialist employment relations trigger the employee turnover intention of medical doctors. Additionally, it was found that although managerialist employment relations lead to turnover intention, Nigeria’s unique, non-participatory and authoritarian employment relations system exacerbates this situation, forcing doctors to consider leaving their employment. Research limitations/implications Studies on the interface between managerialism and employment relations are still under-researched and underdeveloped. This paper also throws more light on issues associated with managerialist employment relations and human resources practice including stress, burnout and dissatisfaction. Their relationship with doctors’ turnover intention has significant implications for employment policies, engagement processes and HRM in general. The possibility of generalising the findings of this study is constrained by the limited sample size and its qualitative orientation. Originality/value This paper contributes to the dearth of studies emphasising employer–employee relationship quality as a predictor of employee turnover intention and a mediator between managerialist organisational system and turnover intention. The study further contributes to the discourse of employment relations and its concomitant turnover intention from developing countries’ perspective within the medical sector.

This study examines how an occupational commitment and a fun work environment serve as important mechanisms that influence the job demands–turnover intentions relationship. On the basis of the job demands–resources model, the study explored the relationship between job demands, occupational commitment, fun at work, and turnover intention. The hypotheses were (1) that job demands would be positively associated with predicted turnover intention; (2) that occupational commitment would mediate the job demands–turnover intention link and (3) that a fun environment would moderate the relationship between job demands and occupational commitment and between job demands and turnover intention. The study sampled 294 seafarers using an online survey, and applied descriptive, correlative analysis and the PROCESS Macro to test the hypotheses. Findings provide preliminary support for the three hypotheses, and contribute to a better understanding of the mechanism determining seafarers’ turnover intention. The results suggest the importance of holding appropriate group activities on-board to help seafarers alleviate fatigue and stress.

The Relationship

As a bottom-up leadership style, humble leadership has attracted increasing attention from scholars in recent years. But its effectiveness and mechanism still lack rigorous empirical study. In this study, we investigate the mechanism and boundary condition by which humble leader behavior exerts influence on followers’ turnover intention. Two-wave data collected from 249 scientific and technological personnel in China supported our hypothesized model. We found that humble leader behavior is significantly negatively related to follower turnover intention. The relationship is further partially mediated by organizational identification, and moderated by leader expertise. Implications for theory, practice and future research are discussed.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to investigate the relationship of corporate ethical values (CEV) on the work attitudes linked to the organizational behavior of employees. It primarily focusses on examining the relationship of CEV with organizational commitment (OC) and the turnover intention (TI) of employees. Design/methodology/approach – Study undertakes an explanatory analysis on a sample of 150 employees from large and medium scale Indian Information Technology Business Process Outsourcing firms. Findings – Results of the study revealed significant relationships among the variables. Strong positive association has been found between CEV and commitment, whereas, contrasting result has been found with TI of employees. CEV explained 22 percent and 23 percent of variance in commitment and TI, respectively. Moreover, the relationship of ethical values and TIs has been found to be mediated through OC. Practical implications – Study enables the managers to understand wider impact of ethics in an organization and its positive impact on employees in increasing their commitment levels. Managers should focus on the ethical aspects of conducting business to ensure that the employees are well engaged with their employer and have the least tendency to shift when given an opportunity. Originality/value – This research attempts to bridge the gap in the existing literature by explaining relationship among variables (CEV, OC and TI) in context to the South-Asian nations, and especially India.
