Abstract

Employee turnover is one of the most studied phenomena, and numerous models have been presented from time to time to help clarify it. This study aims to find out what factors influence turnover intentions in developing countries. The partial least square-structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) method was used to investigate data using PLS graph software. A questionnaire was used to test the proposed model. The link to the questionnaire was sent to Sudanese telecommunication companies, and individuals in managerial roles were among those who participated in the survey. The outcomes suggest that organisational commitment and work satisfaction affect turnover intentions. Furthermore, the findings show that organisational commitment is mediating the correlation between perceived alternative job opportunities and intent to quit.
