摘要：Most of the researchers have focused on work-related attitudes and employment alternatives to explain leave intension (or turnover intention) of employees. Job embeddedness framework integrates both work and non-work related factors to explain employee’s turnover rather than only work related dimension. This paper presents the results of an empirical survey conducted in higher education institutions to validate job embeddedness construct in a new context. Out of the two types of embeddedness, our findings fully supports that organization embeddedness has a negative impact on leave intension, however, there is no impact of community embeddedness. In addition, job alternative positively relates to leave intention. Some items of community and organization link dimensions of the composite measure have also been improved.
