Intra-Organizational Factors and Employee Job Practice Area Affecting Turnover Intention

EasyChair Preprint 2762

Abstract

This study explores the intra-organizational factors and employee job practice area affecting turnover intention. We propose that turnover intention is influenced by two intra-organizational factors, namely, finesse factor and firm factor, and employees’ association to a specific job area. Data were obtained from a diversified multinational company with many job practice areas. The survey method was used to collect data from a total of 1,511 respondents. Multiple regression analysis was conducted to test the proposed hypotheses. The findings suggest that all three factors have significant impact on turnover intention. The results indicate that the intra-organizational factors – finesse factor and firm factor – have a negative relationship with turnover intention. This implies that the more positively the employees perceive the intra-organizational factors (i.e., the firm and finesse factors) in an organization, the lower their intention to leave the organization. The results also suggest that employees’ associations to various job practice areas have differing significant impact on their intention to leave an organization. For example, employees in the building engineering will have a differing degree of intention to leave the organization compared to those in architecture.
