직무관련 요인이 공무원의 이직의도에 미치는 영향과직무관련 의사소통의 조절효과

Although many job-related factors have been found to significantly influence the turnover intention of public employees, the majority of previous studies have focused on only a few selective job-related factors in specific public organizations. Due to the limited scope of these studies, it has been difficult to generalize the causal effect of job-related factors on the turnover intention of public employees. Based on this premise, this study empirically analyzes the effect of diverse job-related factors and the moderating effects of job-related communication on the turnover intention of civil servants in general service using an ordered logistic regression model. The study results show three important findings. First, three job-related factors, job satisfaction, job stress, and workload, show statistical significance in regards to the turnover intention of civil servants. Specifically, while job satisfaction is negatively associated with turnover intention, job stress and workload show a positive association. Second, job satisfaction was found to be the strongest predictor of the turnover intention of civil servants followed by job stress and workload. Finally, job-related communication showed a moderating effect on the relationship between job satisfaction-turnover intention, job stress-turnover intention, and workload-turnover intention. Whereas job-related communication intensifies the negative relationship between job satisfaction and turnover intention, it weakens the positive relationship between job stress-turnover intention and workload-turnover intention. This finding suggests that these job-related factors influence the turnover intention of civil servants with varying degrees according to the level of job-related communication. Through empirical tests, this study expands the understanding of the impact of job-related factors confirming that diverse job-related factors and the moderating effects of job-related communication have direct and indirect impacts on the turnover intention of civil servants.
