Abstract

Purpose: The objective of the present study is to examine how work engagement, job demands and organizational commitment affect turnover intention among employees in Penang manufacturing industry. Research Methodology: Quantitative approach will be used in this study by distributing the online questionnaire to collect data from a sample of 75 employees drawn from manufacturing companies in Penang, Malaysia. Results: The present study found out that work engagement and job demands have no significant relationship with turnover intention. Besides, the present study indicates that organizational commitment is negatively related to turnover intention. Limitations: In this research, only 75 employees from Penang manufacturing industry had participated in the study.

Contribution: The findings of this research provide benefits to the Federation of Malaysian Manufacturing (FFM) and manufacturing companies as they can understand the devastation effects of turnover and be equipped with strategies to decrease the turnover rate. Keywords: Employee, Job demands, Manufacturing industry, Organizational commitment, Turnover intention, Work engagement
