摘要

The prime objective of the current study is to explain the relationship between employee turnover intentions, supervisors support, job autonomy and job satisfaction. Furthermore, the mediating role of job satisfaction in the relationship between job autonomy, employee turnover intentionsand supervisors support are examined. We have used the SEM-PLS as a statistical tool to achieve the objectives of the current study. The data is collected with the aid of an adapted questionnaire. The operation managers and finance managers of Indonesian manufacturing firms are chosen as thefinal sample of the current study. The current study focused on job satisfaction, and it is argued that job autonomy is a key determinant of job satisfaction, as greater autonomy will lead to more satisfaction and lower the turnover. Meanwhile, the findings of the study have revealed the factthat supervisor support is also a key factor. The results of the study are providing support to the proposition of agency theory and resource-based theory. Overall the findings of the current study are in line with the proposed findings. The paramedical staff of Thai government hospital ischosen as the sample of the study.
