ABSTRACT

The question, who will leave and who will stay, has been repeatedly examined by the researchers who have concerned about organization management. In this study, we tested two research questions for the public employees. The first was to investigate the difference of turnover intention among good, marginal, and poor performers. And the second question concerned the differential effects of organizational factors and institutional factors on turnover intention among the three performance groups, using ordered logit regression. Finally this study empirically showed the good performers have less intention to leave the government than poor performers and the effect factors of turnover intention for the poor performers were not same as that of marginal and good performers.

KEYWORDS
