Psychological contract breach, job satisfaction and turnover intention in the utility industry /|cEugèny Charlene HennicksHennicks, Eugèny Charlene January 2014 (has links)
Globally competitive industries need to keep up with the rigorous technical innovations to ensure that they reach their targets in terms of customer satisfaction. In order to do this, businesses need to ensure that they have the correct skills and capabilities in order to meet their demands. Organisations encounter difficulties as they constantly need to replace lost skills, and once these skills have been replaced, they need to spend additional money to train and equip new employees adequately to perform the jobs that they are employed to do. These days, many companies find themselves in financial turmoil which emerges from large turnover rates. There has been a severe exodus of skilled employees in the utility industry. During the past twelve months, this industry has lost 1 479 critical skills. Scarce skills are expensive to retain and it is important that employee well-being take top priority to keep up with changing labour demographics. This upkeep relates to huge emphasis being placed on customer satisfaction. In order to keep customers happy, companies first need to keep their employees happy. Efforts made by the organisation to improve situational circumstances for its employees, will promote positive individual and organisational outcomes. Two dimensions contribute greatly to a positive employment relationship which is conducive towards promoting positive individual and organisational outcomes, namely a fulfilled psychological contract and fairness in allocating monetary rewards. Money should not be used as a Band-Aid; not everything can be remedied with money. However, money is important, although it is not the most important factor. Fulfilment of the different dimensions of the psychological contract, including, but not limited to opportunities for personal growth and career advancement, and a management-supportive work environment are vital towards establishing and maintaining a positive employment relationship. The aim of the study was to investigate the role of psychological contract breach, job satisfaction and turnover intention in the utility industry and to determine the outcomes thereof. A mixed method approach was used to gather data. In the qualitative study, managers and staff (N = 15) were interviewed and a thematic content analysis was performed. In the second phase of the study, the quantitative part, questionnaires were distributed to employees (N = 251) across all levels of the organisation. The measuring instruments used were the Psychological Contract Inventory, Job Satisfaction Scale and Turnover Intention Scale. The results of Article 1 (Chapter 2) showed that a total of 60% of participants made reference to the importance of money. Emphasis was also placed on other aspects, where 53% of participants made mention of leadership being an important driver of job satisfaction. Other themes also regarded as important toward curbing skills loss were the importance of personal excellence and the need for effective communication as drivers of job satisfaction.
Article 2 (Chapter 3) found that a fulfilled balanced psychological contract displayed a strong, positive relationship with job satisfaction and that job satisfaction had a negative impact on turnover intention. These findings support the negative impact of psychological contract breach on job satisfaction and, in relation to this, job dissatisfaction positively impacted turnover intention. It was further found that psychological contract breach of the balanced contract had an indirect positive impact on turnover intent via job satisfaction. Recommendations for future studies were made. / MCom (Labour Relations Management), North-West University, Vaal Triangle Campus, 2014

The moderating effect of social support on the relation between role overload, job satisfaction and turnover intention / Charl Francois SieberhagenSieberhagen, Charl Francois January 2006 (has links)
Gold mining in South Africa has played a significant role in the economic
development of the country over the past 120 years. The continued focus on
productivity, recruitment and consolidation in the South African gold mining industry
will result in a decline in production. Much of the decline can be attributed to natural
attrition as the industry has moved from a mass employer of limited, contract,
unskilled labour, to an employer of more permanent, mostly semi-skilled or skilled
labour. The objective of this research was to investigate the reliability of measuring
instruments of social support, role overload (qualitative and quantitative), job
satisfaction and turnover intention for employees in the mining industry. Further
objectives included empirically determining whether social support has a moderating
effect on the relation between role overload and job satisfaction and turnover
intention.
A cross-sectional survey design was used. A random sample was taken from a South
African mining company (N=250). Gender and age were included as control
variables. Individuals on Paterson grading E band to C Upper (managers) were part of
the sample. Five measuring instruments were administrated. Descriptive statistics and
inferential statistics were used to analyse the data.
The results obtained for the five scales proved the measuring instruments to be
reliable. The results show that when an employee feels that his/her work is more than
he/she can accomplish in the time available (quantitative role overload), the employee
will most probably also feel that his/her work requires skills, abilities and knowledge
beyond that of their own (qualitative role overload). It is also indicated that social
support from the supervisor increases the employee's positive attitude or pleasurable
emotional state towards his/her job or job experience (job satisfaction), as well as
heightens the probability of social support from colleagues. Furthermore, the more
positive the employee's attitude towards the job, the less the intention to stop working
will be (turnover intention). This intention to stop working will also be less when
social support from the supervisor is more and/or when the employee experiences less
feelings that his/her work is more than he/she can accomplish in the time available.
Turnover intention was predicted by social support from supervisor.
Job satisfaction was predicted by role overload (quantitative) and social support from
supervisor.
By way of conclusion, recommendations for future research are made. / Thesis (M.A. (Industrial Psychology))--North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2007.

The Effect of Self-Esteem, Bullying, and Harassment on Nurse Turnover IntentionArand, Joyce Richelle 01 January 2019 (has links)
Currently there is a high rate of registered nurse (RN) turnover due in part to bullying and harassment among peers; which fosters lower quality nursing care, jeopardizes patient safety, and increases healthcare costs. The purpose of this quantitative nonexperimental study was to examine the relationship between inpatient nurses' individual self-esteem and reported bullying and harassment with their intent to leave their job. Two theories were used to provide structure to this work: cognitive experimental self theory and oppressed group theory. Data were collected using the Negative Acts Questionnaire, the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, and the Turnover Intentions Measure. All RNs in a Midwestern state were emailed an invitation link to the instruments housed on SurveyMonkey. Only those respondents who claimed to be inpatient RNs were included in the study (n = 770). The three research questions asked about bullying and harassment among inpatient RNs, about the self-esteem of RNs who experienced bullying and harassment and those who have not, and if those RNs who experienced bullying and harassments intended to leave their jobs. With a 2.1% response rate, results indicated that there was a relationship among RNs and bullying and harassment, the self-esteem of RNs who did not experience bullying and harassment was higher than those who did experience bullying and harassment, and there was a positive relationship between RNs experiencing bullying and harassment and their intent to leave their jobs. This research suggests that if bullying and harassment patterns among RNs are identified sooner, RN turnover can be reduced, patient care quality and safety can be improved, and U.S. healthcare costs can decrease.
