Examining the job search–turnover relationship: The role of embeddedness, job satisfaction, and available alternatives.
Year: 2010
Type: article
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: This study examined factors that may help explain under what conditions employee job search effort may most strongly (or weakly) predict subsequent turnover. As predicted, the job search-turnover relationship was stronger when employees had lower levels of job embeddedness and job satisfaction and higher levels of available alternatives. These findings suggest that there may be a number of factors interacting to influence employees' turnover decisions, indicating greater complexity to the process than described in prominent sequential turnover models.
