Job Stress and Work Well-Being: A Mediating Role of Turnover Intention

Abstract

The present study investigates the mediating role of turnover intention in the relationship between occupational stress and work well-being. Occupational stress poses a significant threat to employees' psychological well-being and turnover intention, with far-reaching implications for organizational productivity and economic growth. Despite growing concerns, the complex relationship between occupational stress, work well-being, and turnover intention remains unclear. A quantitative-survey design was employed and to evaluate the variables of study. The total number of participants in the study was 201, aged 18 to 60, and all working. The result showed the significant mediating effect of turnover intention on the relationship between job stress and work-life well-being (p<0.05). The study’s result stressed the significance of managing job stress and facilitating employee well-being. This underscores the importance of managing job-stress and promoting wellbeing, revealing a complex interplay between stress, well-being, and turnover-intentions. This highlights the need for a comprehensive approach for promoting employee-wellbeing to foster a healthier and more sustainable work environment
