Role of Organizational Climate on Turnover Intention of School Teachers

Organizational climate and turnover intention influence employees' retention and job satisfaction. Turnover intention indicates the likelihood of an employee leaving their current position, which can impact the stability and performance of any organization. This study examines the relationship between the level of organizational climate and turnover intention among school teachers, focusing on two groups of teachers: Group A (teaching from Nursery to 8th class) and Group B (teaching from 9th to 12th class). The mean comparison revealed that Group A had significantly higher communication levels than Group B. The stepwise regression analysis indicated that team support was a significant negative predictor of turnover intention in Group A. In contrast, the training & learning dimension was a significant negative predictor for Group B. These findings suggest that while both groups experience some common organizational climate factors influencing turnover intention, specific dimensions such as team support and training opportunities play crucial roles depending on the group context.
