both the private and public sectors. However, little is known about employee
turnover intention within Private Higher Education Institution in Kota Kinabalu,
Sabah. The purpose of this study is to explore the relationship between job
satisfaction, organizational commitment and pay satisfaction on turnover intention
among academic staffs in Private Higher Education Institution in Kota Kinabalu,
Sabah. In this study, job satisfaction, organizational commitment and pay
satisfaction acts as independent variables. Meanwhile, turnover intention acts as
dependent variable. This study adopts correlational study survey to answer the
three research questions developed. The method of data analysis includes
descriptive statistics, confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modeling
(SEM). The results imply that relationship between job satisfaction and
organizational commitment does not have significant effect on turnover intention.
However, the result of the relationship between pay satisfaction shows a significant
influence on turnover intention. The findings indicated that pay satisfaction is the
root cause of turnover intention, while job satisfaction and organizational
commitment has minor influence on the turnover intention. Limitations of the study
and recommendations for future research are also presented in this study. This
research should serve as a guide to management in Private Higher Education
Institution, especially in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah to deepen their understanding of the
employees' behavior and take the necessary steps to reduce the turnover intention. |
