Abstract

ABSTRACT This national study identified factors that affect quitting intentions among nursing home social workers (NHSWs). The findings indicated that greater job involvement and lack of a negative outlook may enhance NHSWs' job satisfaction and organizational commitment and contribute to decreased job search and quitting intent. Also, respondents that experienced less stress and routinization in their work and reported greater amounts of autonomy, equity in pay and benefits, promotional opportunities, and coworker and supervisor support, had decreased levels of quitting intent and job search via greater job satisfaction and organizational commitment. The results imply that changes in job design and greater supervisory and coworker support may encourage NHSWs' retention.
