It all means a wish to quit and move on to something better and many employees are there right now. I am currently employed at a very popular hospital and I am currently seeing job dissatisfaction first hand. In the department that I work at many employees are showing their true views on how they are unsatisfied with the job. Many people feel that the job is becoming very stressful with the demands from upper management. Many employees are working long hours and are not receiving any recognition for it. In the past few months I have seen many employees quit and move on to other positions. Many of the ones remaining are not even putting 100 percent into their work because they feel like they should not if they will not be recognized for
If staff are absent from work they are not able to carry out the functions for which they have been employed.

However, other researchers such as Haven-Tang and Jones, (2012) concluded poor management, lack of salary, bad working environment and paucity of job opportunities could be the highest causes of turnover among organization. This statement was support by Kusluvan et al., (2010) where is they had stated that poor management, low payment of salary, work environment and lack of employees’ job opportunities on the organization will make employee want to quit from their job. Turnover intention situation will appear when labour had feeling that they want to quit from current job, so voluntary and involuntary turnover will become final stage for them as their decision (AlBattat and Mat Som, 2013) but it is different for researchers such as Mosadeghrad, Ferlie and Rosbenberg (2013) when they conclude that employee turno...
