Abstract

Design/methodology/approach – The data were obtained from 296 employees working in a public institution in January-February in 2019. By using SPSS 25 program, correlation and regression analyses were performed to investigate the relationships between variables and their effects. Also, it had been examined the moderating role of work-family conflict and gender on the relationship among abuse supervision and perceived performance and intention to quit. Findings – Analyzes revealed that the perception of abuse supervision decreased perceived performance of employees, increased intention to quit and work-family conflict, and work-family conflict and gender had a moderating effect on the relationship among abuse supervision and perceived performance and intention to quit. Discussion – International studies indicate that abusive supervision increases employees' intention to quit, work-family conflict, and reduces job performance. The findings of this study support these results. Also, it is seen that both work-family conflict has a moderating effect on the relationship between abusive supervision and job performance and, gender has a moderating impact on intention to quit and job performance of employees.
