Abstract

Ever changing business landscape has numerous effects on employee behaviuor at work. This paper aims to test whether private and public sector employees in Montenegro are showing different levels of employee attitudes in the new working environment, taking into consideration severe changes from the recent past. In this research, the level of job engagement, job stress, and intentions to leave the organization were tested based on a sample of 1969 responders. Statistical T-test was applied as well as correlation analysis. The results of this research are showing that working in the private or public sector has a statistically confirmed effect on the level of job engagement, job stress, and turnover intentions. Besides, when the level of job stress increases, there is a decline in job engagement and an upsurge in turnover intention. Obtained results have scientific and practical implications.
