An Examination of the I ndependent and Joint Contributions of Organizational Commitment and Job Satisfaction on Employee Intentions to Quit

Abstract

Based on an argument that organizational commitment and job-facet satis faction represented different constructs, the present study explored the independent and joint effects of these variables on employees' intentions to quit their jobs. Consistent with prior findings, the present investigation indicated that commitment bears a significant and relatively strong relation ship to withdrawal intentions and is more closely related to such intentions than is job satisfaction. Moreover, the present data indicate that satisfaction, above and beyond commitment itself, tends to have independent and interactive effects on the criterion measure. These results are discussed with regard to understanding employee withdrawal processes.
