Revealing the effect of quality of work life and organizational justice on Indonesian teachers’ turnover intention: A serial mediation

Type of the article: Research Article AbstractThis study aims to understand how affective commitment and organizational citizenship behavior mediate the effect of quality of work life and organizational justice on turnover intention in Indonesia. A Likert scale questionnaire was employed in the survey procedure of the study, which took a quantitative approach. The research was conducted over two months (January–February 2025) and involved 385 Indonesian honorary teachers from Banten, Jakarta, and West Java. The use of structural equation modeling to analyze data was aided by correlation matrices and descriptive statistics. This study provides a novel empirical paradigm for comprehending the influence of work-life quality and organizational justice on teachers’ turnover intentions via affective commitment and organizational citizenship behavior. Therefore, in order to lower the intention of teacher turnover, school management must simultaneously and consistently strengthen and enhance organizational justice, affective commitment, organizational citizenship behavior, and work-life quality. While acknowledging the study’s limitations, academics might utilize the findings as a basis for future research and discussions with the same objective.
