Abstract:
Objective To examine the impact of person-organization fit ( P-O fit) on turnover intention of medical staff and examine the mediating role of job involvement between P-O fit and turnover intention of medical staff.Methods The basic research hypothesis was obtained by combing the relationship among three variables of P-O fit, job involvement and turnover intention of medical staff. A questionnaire survey was conducted among 408 medical staff at 9 general public hospitals in the Pearl River Delta from July to August 2018. The contents of survey were as follows: the match between such factors as medical staff values, culture, personal ability and hospital, as well as turnover intention and job involvement of medical staff.The structural equation model was constructed by Amos 20.0, and the relationship between variables was analyzed.Results The path coefficients between the three variables were 0.436(P<0.001),-0.281 (P<0.05),-0.544(P<0.001), respectively.The total effect value and intermediate effect value were-0.470,- 0.082, respectively. P-O fit was positively related to job involvement. P-O fit and job involvement were negatively related to turnover intention of medical staff.Job involvement partially mediated the relationship between P-O fit and turnover intention. Conclusions In order to reduce the turnover intention of medical staff, hospitals must pay attention to the match of values, culture and personal ability between medical staff and hospitals, establish a match evaluation mechanism between medical staff and hospitals, create good working conditions and atmosphere for medical staff, and encourage medical staff to work harder.
