Need a running head. Job Satisfaction and Intent to Quit Introduction: Competent employees with high levels of skills and experience are critical for a competitive edge and optimal performance. Organizations may lose qualified and highly skilled employees who feel less satisfied in the workplace. It is therefore essential to ensure these employees remain in the workplace by identifying factors that affect job satisfaction. According to Coetzee (2002), denying employees a chance to enjoy work and have fun can have detrimental effects on job satisfaction and may encourage them to seek employment in other organizations. Research by Moore (2002) found that job satisfaction is positively related to employee’s intentions to remain in the workplace. The authors found that less satisfied employees had plans to quit their jobs. Job satisfaction is a positive attitude that employees develop about their job. This attitude results from how they perceive their jobs on matters of support, pay, challenges in the workplace, and benefits and supervision. It also occurs when the employees find a good fit with the organization or when rewards for good performance are perceived as sufficient and reasonable. Intentions to quit the job, also called turnover intentions, refer to conscious considerations and willingness to seek a job in other organizations (Tett & Meyer, 1993). They are defined as the probability that employees will remain with an organization. Intentions to quit start with an evaluation of job situation form which the employee advances through the stages of assessment until they ponder the decision to quit. The result of this evaluation can be the decision to leave the company. Workers seek environments that are congruent with their needs and preferences. Employees lack satisfaction in settings that are incongruent with their disposition and seek to leave the organization. They remain in situations that they feel satisfied while the environment finds satisfaction from the employees. The purpose of this study is to explore how organizations can prevent turnover intent by keeping employees satisfied. Research questions: 1. Is job satisfaction related to intention to quit Research model: Job Satisfaction Intention to Quit Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs: Draw the pyramid and have a paragraph explaining each level. In 1943, Maslow invented human motivation theory. In addition to basic needs, which are essential for survival of human beings, the second most immediate need is are the social activities. Social activities include sense of belonging and the need to be loved (Whittington and Evans, 2015). The aspect is important in workplace. When employees feel that they are discriminated at workplace, the desire to quit grows. The higher order needs are related to selfesteem and self-actualization. Motivation can therefore result from within the individual or can be sourced from external factors (Deci & Ryan, 2014). Maslow's hierarchy is commonly displayed in a pyramid fashion, with the basic needs at the bottom and the higher needs at the top. Proposition: Job Satisfaction is related to the intention to quit. (Proposition) Hardworking and competent employees are crucial for a competitive edge and smooth flow of operations. Organizations experience great losses when they lose part of their workforce and will incur costs recruiting new workers. One of the leading causes of intention to quit is lack of satisfaction in the workplace. Current studies have shown that satisfaction is negatively correlated with turnover intent such that employees who feel less satisfied are more likely to leave the organization. This study, therefore, proposes equal and treatment of employees ensure both intrinsic and extrinsic factors that affect their motivation in the job are met. To keep employees satisfied, management should make sure hygiene factors like good pay, good organization culture and working conditions, policies and job security are available. Besides, satisfier factors like opportunities for growth, career development, recognition, and achievement should be favourable to keep employees satisfied. Literature Review: An investigation between job satisfaction and the intention to quit is critical to almost all career fields in the modern economy; an economy where companies strive to maximize output using the most efficient management practices. Therefore, it is necessary to create a strategic framework around job satisfaction and intention to quit. This chapter builds the strategic network from which future references and attributes of this work will be based on. The work will give attention to attributes of supervisor, job satisfaction based on variety, satisfaction based on closure, the role compensation, bonuses, wages and incentives, attributes, nature and support from workplace co-workers, and the role of management and HR policies in the context of an intent to quit. The Six Multidimensional Facets:Check APA formatting for this level heading. According to Tschopp, Grote & Gerber (2014), intentions forms part of the actual behavior of human beings. From a research perspective by, it is practically possible to access individuals who have a strong desire to quit and understand the situation from their perspectives in relation to job satisfaction. To reinforce the earlier research, this indicates that job satisfactions shape workforce attitudes, intentions, and general behavior almost across all career fields (Supeli & Creed, 2016). In order to evaluate job ‘satisfaction' in depth, multiple characteristics of the job itself must be empirically measured to obtain specific employees views, attitudes, and behaviors towards a given job. However, the job characteristics are relative and vary from one employee to another (Kundu & Gahlawat, 2015). For example, one employee may be comfortable with specific company policies but is however opposed to the amount of salary she or he receives. The organizational research studied and come up with different facets of work. These facets of work include but are not limited to the nature of the supervisor, policies that the organization adheres to, amount of salary and wages, promotional practices and the nature of the coemployees. Analyzing these facets in-depth unearths a conclusion that the nature of relationships in the workplace affects job satisfaction. It is therefore important for the relations in the workplace to be treated with caution. Moreover, management skills, the top management to be particular play a significant role in influencing job satisfaction and the drive to quit (Sims, Ruppel & Zeidler, 2016). Purani & Sahadev (2007) presented the mostly recognized criteria for analyzing job satisfaction. This criterion is multidimensional and presents six main facets of analyzing job satisfaction. These are: a) satisfaction with supervisor, b) satisfaction with variety, c) satisfaction with closure, d) satisfaction with compensation, e) satisfaction with co-workers, and f) satisfaction with management and HR policies. Satisfaction with Supervisor: According to Lu, Lu, Gursoy & Neale (2016), the way supervisors handle the information, and relate with employees is a crucial determinant of employee satisfaction. Many employees who are dissatisfied with their supervisor have a strong desire to quit their jobs. How supervisors organize the workplace and working conditions impacts job satisfaction. Employees make reservations about supervisors. The nature of the reservation makes the employees contemplate on alternatives, whether to stick to the job or simply quit. Human resource (HR) is an indispensable factor that influences job satisfaction. How work is scheduled by the management is a focal point in shaping the intention of leaving a job (Allisey, Noblet, Lamontagne & Houdmont, 2014). Satisfaction with variety: According to Lu, Lu, Gursoy & Neale (2016), employees are bored with routine tasks. Employees tend to be more comfortable when they conduct various tasks that are challenging. They perceive a variety of tasks to be adventurous, a factor which eliminates the desire to quit. Performing a variety of tasks gives employees a sense of freedom. Individual development at the workplace is crucial; the vice preserves an interest in the job. The factor makes the employees not to be disinterested in the job. Training can help cultivate an interest in a job. Emergent workers refer to modern employees who are not afraid of losing their jobs. These workers are constantly looking for better-paying opportunities. Kundu & Gahlawat (2015) explains that when they feel undervalued, emergent workers hop out of careers and look for higher responsibilities. Satisfaction with compensation: Compensation remains one of the most important factors that determine job satisfaction and hence the intent to quit. Compensation complements job security. Tschopp, Grote & Gerber (2014) explains how compensation is an influential factor that determines the level of satisfaction in the sales sector. According to Allisey, Noblet, Lamontagne & Houdmont (2014), the compensation can psych the workers and thus impacts the intent to quit. The conditions in the workplace, including remuneration, should be favorable. Good wages affect the mindset of workers and the desire to quit the job is reduced. However, according to Abbas, Raja, Darr & Bouckenooghe (2014), one of the challenges that organizations face is on how to offer competitive wages that can reduce the intent to quit and retain the employees. Satisfaction with co-workers Attitudes exhibited by the co-employees influence the level of job satisfaction (Allisey, Noblet, Lamontagne & Houdmont, 2014). The attitudes of workers to each other, the worker's personal behavior and how they support each influences job satisfaction in varying degrees. If the nature of the co-worker relationship is uncertain, most of the employees will opt to quit. In turn, the employees will search for more favorable workplaces where the relationship is positive in nature. JOB SATISFACTION AND INTENT TO QUIT Lack of support, either from the organization, from the co-workers or both creates the imaginations that finally drive workers to quit a job. Management practices, heavy workload particularly stresses out employees. The job burnout is directly linked to the intentions of quitting. Supeli & Creed (2016) defines extrinsic and intrinsic concepts, values which influence job satisfaction. Extrinsic values gravitate around the tangible characteristics exhibited by the job. These aspects include compensation, wages, and bonuses. On another hand, intrinsic aspects focus on development opportunities. The values can be analyzed in the context of job recognition and personal status at the workplace. Reasons that explain how job dissatisfaction has been documented in many academic. However, the reasons that stand out are: excluding workers from the decision-making process, poor management-worker relationships, poor salaries, bonuses and compensation, poor scheduling and sequencing of work, exhaustion and burnout and lack of job security (Allisey, Noblet, Lamontagne & Houdmont, 2014). Job dissatisfaction is also influenced by emotional exhaustion that leads to stress and finally the intention to quit. A research conducted by Tschopp, Grote & Gerber (2014), provides concrete evidence on how dissatisfied workers are likely to quit their jobs as compared to their colleagues who experience a high level of job satisfaction. Other factors that trigger intention to quit vary from poor compensation and lack of incentives, poor work scheduling (Kundu & Gahlawat, 2015), lack of personal development and growth opportunities (Supeli & Creed, 2016) in addition to job induced depression and stress (Tschopp, Grote & Gerber, 2014), and intention to quit is linked to other factors that are situational in nature. These factors include but are not limited to family duties, premature job resignation (Supeli & Creed, 2016) and the duration of time an employee has worked (Lu, Lu, Gursoy, & Neale, 2016), lack motivation, stress and depression and the socially constructed perspective that some careers are inferior (Kundu & Gahlawat, 2015). Purani and Sahadev (2007) applied the six multifaceted dimensions to explain the effect of job satisfaction on the salespeople who work in India. The research found out that employees with high levels of satisfaction inject more time into their work and are less likely to quit compared to their counterparts with a low level of job satisfaction. In addition, the findings from the research concluded that other demographic factors influence the intent to quit. Allisey, Noblet, Lamontagne & Houdmont, (2014), examined how intrinsic factors influence job satisfaction in the public sector. They found out that existing information on a given job and the job structure and content influences job satisfaction in the public sector (Abbas, Raja, Darr & Bouckenooghe, 2014). Research Analysis: In order to evaluate job ‘satisfaction’ in depth, multiple characteristics of the job itself must be empirically measured to obtain specific employees views, attitudes and behaviors towards a given job. However, the job characteristics are relative and vary from one employee to another. For example, one employee may be comfortable with specific company policies but is however opposed to the amount of salary she or he receives. The organizational research studied and come up with different facets of work. These facets of work include but are not limited to the nature of the supervisor, policies that the organization adheres to, amount of salary and wages, promotional practices and the nature of the co-employees. Analyzing these facets in-depth unearths a conclusion that the nature of relationships in the workplace affects job satisfaction. It is therefore important for the relations in the workplace to be treated with caution. Moreover, management skills, the top management to be particular play a significant role in influencing job satisfaction and the drive to quit (Allisey, Noblet, Lamontagne & Houdmont, 2014).

Job dissatisfaction is also influenced by emotional exhaustion that leads to stress and finally the intention to quit (Allisey, Noblet, Lamontagne & Houdmont, 2014). Attributes of supervisor, job satisfaction based on variety, satisfaction based on closure, the role compensation, bonuses, wages and incentives, attributes, nature and support from workplace co-workers, and the role of management and HR policies attributes can trigger an employee to quit. Other factors that can make employees be disinterested in the job are psychological health conditions, family issues, and turnover interventions. These factors can lower the job satisfaction feeling and hence eliciting the intention of quitting (Tschopp, Grote, & Gerber, 2014). Employees with low levels of motivation are less dissatisfied and are likely to quit their jobs as compared to their colleagues who experience a high level of job satisfaction. Other factors that trigger intention to quit vary from poor compensation and lack of incentives, poor work scheduling lack of personal development and growth opportunities. In addition to job induced depression and stress intention to quit is linked to other factors that are situational in nature. These factors include but are not limited to family duties, premature job resignation and the duration of time an employee has worked lack motivation, stress and depression and the socially constructed perspective that some careers are inferior (Tschopp, Grote & Gerber, 2014). Compensation remains one of the most important factors that determine job satisfaction and hence the intent to quit. Compensation complements job security. Tschopp, Grote, & Gerber (2014) explains how compensation is an influential factor that determines the level of satisfaction in the sales sector. According to the compensation can psych the workers and thus impacts the intent to quit. The conditions in the workplace, including remuneration, should be favorable. Good wages affect the mindset of workers and the desire to quit the job is reduced.
