Job Relocation Prediction

Abstract

The overall objective of this research is to highlight the predictive power of demographic characteristics (age, gender, marital status, the subject has/does not have children, level of education) and of the individual ones (job satisfaction, commitment to task) on the individual decision to accept or refuse a job in another town. Our results indicate that age, gender, marital status and whether subjects have children or not are significant predictors for the decision to accept job relocation. In contrast, the education level, job satisfaction, opportunity for personal development and spiritual perception of labour and the sense of initiatives do not have predictive power on the job relocation decision.
