The movement of professionals from one organisation to another in quest for satisfaction has been a matter of serious concern to health organisations especially Shisong hospital in Kumbo east health district, Bui Division of the Northwest Region of Cameroon. This hospital sought to reduce this labour turnover and increase employee satisfaction through promotion, which is one of its internal recruitment sources. The question has been whether the use of promotion will lead to employee satisfaction and commitment and reduce the urge to leave this organisation. An investigation has been done using a close ended questionnaire with 166 employees of this hospital to prove if significant relationships exist between promotion and employee satisfaction; employee satisfaction and employee commitment; and promotion and employee intention to quit the organisation. Correlation analysis concluded that there is a significantly strong relationship between promotion and employee satisfaction, a significantly very strong relationship between employee satisfaction and employee commitment and a negatively weak significant relationship between promotion and employee intention to quit this Hospital. Specially, it has been realised that even employees who have not experienced promotion in Shisong hospital are not willing to quit their job as a result of promotion. There will therefore be need to investigate the reason for this special result. Based on promotion alone, much is left to be desired from Shisong hospital.
