The purpose of this study was to identify the effect of person-environment fit and job embeddedness on turnover Intention. The subjects conveniently extracted 150 nurses who work at 2general hospitals in B and U metropolitan cities for more than six months, and Analyses were made using the SPSS WIN 20.0 and AMOS 21.0 programs to identify the causal relationship between person-job fit, person-organizational fit, person-supervisor fit, job embeddedness and turnover Intention. As a result, the variables with direct effect and total effect on job embeddedness showed personal-job fit, personal-organizational fit, person-supervisor fit and explained 76.3% of the job embeddedness. The most significant direct effect on turnover intention was job embeddedness and personal-job fit, personal-organizational fit, Person-supervisor fit showed indirect effect, and job embeddedness explained 36% of the turnover intention. In conclusion, if the personal-job fit, personal-organizational fit, and personal-superior fit of the clinical nurse are improved, the job embeddedness are improved turnover intention will decrease and the turnover rate will be decreased. In addition, it is necessary to study various factors affecting the turnover intention of person-environmental fit on nurses.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of job embeddedness on job satisfaction, organizational commitment and turnover intention in the food and beverage division of hotels. In addition, this study sought to identify the effects of job satisfaction and organizational commitment on turnover intention. Based on the literature reviews, five hypotheses were tested: job embeddedness was positively related to job satisfaction and organizational commitment and negatively related to turnover intention and job satisfaction and organizational commitment were negatively related to turnover intention. The subjects evaluated in this study were employees of the food and beverage division of five or four stars hotels in Seoul. Five hundred questionnaires were distributed and 293 were collected from July 1, 2009 to August 31, 2009, using convenience sampling method. After removing useless questionnaires, a total of 250 questionnaires (five-stars hotel 177, four-stars hotel 73) were analyzed using the factor analysis, a reliability test, and structural equation modeling analysis. The results revealed that job embeddedness was positively related to job satisfaction (t=8.762), organizational commitment (t=5.364) and negatively related to turnover intention (t=-3.500). Therefore, hypothesis I, II and III were accepted. However, job satisfaction (t=-.933) and organizational commitment (t=-1.923) were not negatively related to turnover intention. Therefore, hypothesis IV and V were rejected.

This study aims to empirically identify how job embeddedness which is consisted of links, fit, and sacrifice affects seafarers' turnover intention via organizational commitment. The results of covariance structure analysis on the questionnaire data collected from 362 seafarers are as follows. First, as job embeddedness increases, the seafarers' organizational commitment also increases. Second, organizational commitment seems to have negative relationship with seafarers' turnover intention at the marginally significant level, since links and fit have direct negative relationship with turnover intention.

Purpose: This study was done to elicit basic data for effective human resource management by identifying the relationships among job embeddedness, emotional intelligence, social support, and the turnover intention of Nurses. Methods: Research design was to build a hypothetical causal model between variables and to verify its fitness. The sample for this study was 283 nurses with careers of more than 6 months in one hospital of more than 800 beds located in Seoul. They agreed in writing and this study was approved by the Institutional Review Board. Data were analyzed using SPSS 18.0 and AMOS 18.0 program. Results: Differences in general characteristics for the variables were significant for age, marital status, education, work experience, job title, income, and department. Job embeddedness, emotional intelligence and social support were significantly correlated to turnover intention. Job embeddedness to emotional intelligence and social support showed positive effects and a negative effect to turnover intention. Emotional intelligence to turnover intention showed a positive effect, but social support was not significant. Conclusion: Organizations should provide ways to minimize voluntary turnover of a competent workforce and demonstrate their competency. Also it should develop training and management programs to effectively utilize emotional intelligence.

Small and Medium Enterprises(SMEs) represent quite a large proportion of the Information Technology (IT) industry as a whole in terms of the sales revenue and the number of employees. And their role has been constantly growing. However, they have suffered from the shortage and turnover of skilled IT personnel. Under the background, this study focuses on how to effectively retain IT personnel in SMEs. Job embeddedness is the newly emerging concept in the turnover research. It is known that job embeddedness predicts turnover better than the traditional attitude variables such as job satisfaction and it can be developed by human resource practices. So, this study empirically investigates the relationship among human resource practices, job embeddedness and turnover intention. The survey results of 193 IT personnel reveal that compensation, technical competency development, recognition and work-life balance practice have statistically significant effects on job embeddedness, and that job embeddedness has a negative influence on turnover intention of IT personnel. Based on these results, the implications for managing turnover issues in IT SMEs are suggested.

Objectives : This study investigated the influences of emotional intelligence, self-leadership, and job embeddedness on the work performance of clinical nurses. Methods : A survey was conducted with 258 hospital nurses. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-tests, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficients, and multiple regression with SPSS/WIN 23.0. Results : The mean scores were $4.64{\pm}0.6$ for emotional intelligence, $3.41{\pm}0.42$ for self-leadership, $3.11{\pm}0.52$ for job embeddedness, and $3.49{\pm}0.51$ for nursing work performance respectively. Nursing work performance was positively correlated with emotional intelligence, self-leadership, and job embeddedness. Multiple regression analysis showed that the factors affecting nursing work performance were self-expectation, fit, understanding of self-emotion, links, self-compensation, and age. Conclusions : The results indicate that self-expectation, fit, and understanding of self-emotion are very important factors in nursing work performance. Therefore, nurse managers should enhance nurses self-expectation, fit, and understanding of self-emotion by developing various emotional sensitivity and support programs.

Methods: Data were collected from 263 dental hygienists in the dental institutions. It was then assessed by mean of descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and a stepwise multiple regression analysis. Results: The impact of work environment was 3.35±0.46 points, positive psychological capital was 3.30±0.40 points, and job embeddedness was 3.34±0.47 points. The result of the stepwise multiple regression analysis indicated that work environment, positive psychological capital and clinical career predicted 45.7% (F=7.35, p<0.001) of job embeddedness. Conclusions: Therefore, it is necessary to improve working environment and to strengthen positive psychological capital in order to increase the degree of work commitment in dental hygienists, and to encourage long-term service.

This study was to identify the relationship among small-medium sized hospitals nurse's career plateau, self-efficacy, job embeddedness and turnover intention. The study was conducted through a survey on 217 nurses in five small-medium sized hospitals in J city. The data were collected from August 5, 2013 to August 20, 2013. The data were analyzed by SPSS/WIN 18.0 program. The mean score of turnover intention was 3.07. The positive correlations between career plateau and turnover intention were found, but the negative correlation between self-efficacy, job embeddedness and turnover intention were found. The significant factors influencing turnover intention were job embeddedness, present clinical career, career plateau and work unit. To decrease turnover intention, therefore, nursing managers need to develop the nurse retention program for increasing job embeddedness and apply to nursing field.
