Abstract:
Objectives:This study aimed to determine the relationship between self-assessed environmental factors, organizational commitment, and turnover intention among frontline nurse managers of internationally accredited private hospitals in Metro Manila from February to March 2024.
Methods:A descriptive correlational study among frontline nurse managers of internationally accredited private hospitals in Metro Manila utilizing total enumeration sampling was employed. Data were obtained using three adopted instruments namely: Nurse Leader Environmental Support Survey (NLESS), Three-Component Model (TCM) Employee Commitment Survey, and the Expanded Multidimensional Turnover Intention Scale (EMTIS). Data analysis was done using descriptive and inferential methods.
Results:A total of 195 frontline nurse manager respondents participated in this study with a response rate of 97%. The study reported environmental factors overall mean score of 7.41 generally interpreted as “Always Supportive” and organizational commitment mean score of 3.45 inferred that frontline nurse managers have “Strong Commitment” to their organization. On the other hand, frontline nurse managers reported “Low Turnover Intention” to their organization, with an overall mean score of 2.52. Furthermore, multiple regression analysis revealed that environmental factors and organizational commitment collectively predicted 34.2% of the variance in turnover intention (R² = 0.342, F = 50.0, p = < 0.001). The environmental factors emerged as a very influential predictor of turnover intention as indicated by β = 0.545, p= < 0.001.
Conclusion:The results of the study found a strong positive correlation between environmental factors, organizational commitment, and turnover intention. Higher levels of both environmental factors and organizational commitment were linked to reduced turnover intention. Furthermore, multiple linear regression analysis showed that both environmental factors and organizational commitment were significant predictors of turnover intention.
