“…The study also reveals that among the components of job satisfaction, only pay contributes significantly to turnover intentions. This is also consistent with some studies among teachers (Mburu, 2015;Shah, Jumani, 2015). As explained by Kosi et al (2015), teachers in Ghana place much emphasis on their pay because it is their sole determinant of livelihood.…”

“…Among the predictors of job satisfaction, satisfaction with pay negatively predicts of turnover intention. Similarly, Shah and Jumani (2015) indicate that satisfaction with pay contributes significantly to turnover intentions among teachers. Yet, other components (work itself, promotion and supervision) moderately relate with turnover intention among the teachers.…”

“…It deals with the overall feeling of the employee (Kosi et al, 2015). Employees are motivated to be committed to the job when they are satisfied with the job they do (Shah, Jumani, 2015). Teachers who are satisfied with the teaching profession are more likely to be punctual at work, teach effectively and stay in the teaching profession (Adusei et al, 2016;Malik et al, 2010).…”

“…Generally, studies among non-teaching personnel show a significant relationship between job satisfaction and turnover intentions. However, little is known about teachers in Ghana (Adusei et al, 2016;Mahdi, & Zin, 2012;Shah, & Jumani, 2015). According to Mburu (2015), a significant negative correlation exists between job satisfaction and turnover intentions among public school teachers in Kenya.…”

There is high incidence of teachers' agitation for a better pay and other conditions of service in Ghana. This study assessed the influence of job satisfaction and organizational justice on turnover intentions among teachers. One hundred and fourteen teachers at the Offinso South District of Ghana were conveniently selected to complete the Organizational Justice Index, the Teachers Satisfaction Scale and the Turnover Intention Scale. From the results, turnover intentions negatively correlate with organizational justice and job satisfaction of teachers. With regard to the components of job satisfaction, only pay contributed a significant variance to their turnover intentions. Among the components of organizational justice, distributive and procedural justice contributed also significantly to turnover intentions. Nonetheless, gender had no significant effect on the turnover intentions among teachers.

Keujruen Blang is a person who has particular abilities in agricultural management and arrangement and served as assistant of village head in prospering the farmers. Keujruen blang have criteria such as persevering personality, discipline, experienced and master the customary law of agriculture. This thesis describes the results of research on the customary institution's utilization of Keujruen Blang: Gabungan Perkumpulan Petani Pemakai Air (Association Of Water User Farmer; GP3A) in increasing rice production in Pidie Regency. This research is important to be carried out because the existence of ofKeujruen blang is really needed by the peasant community in the farming activities of rice fields. This study uses descriptive qualitative and quantitative methods; the research method used to create an overview of the situation or event with the accumulation of data obtained. Based on the results of the study, it is known that the role and function of Keujruen Blang in driving the cooperation of the peasant community not yet maximized. What already done is only carrying out pragmatic routine activities, so as a result it does not touch on the subject matter of the decline in the spirit of Gotong Royong (mutual cooperation). Members of Keujruen Blang are not yet aware of their main task; the motivator of the peasant community. Besides, Keujruen Blang also hasn't owned the notary registration as an institution that is legally recorded in the district. The institution does not have a clear vision, mission and goals and the lack of facilities and resources available in the district in improving the ability of the institution's capability. The non-optimal function of the irrigation system also becomes a major obstruction to the development of Keujruen Blang. Besides, other problems are related to the weaknesses of local leadership, lack of educating organizational structure, lack of government participation, and part of the substance of the customary rules are less relevant to the conditions of the peasant society nowadays. In order to minimize the problems that occur in Keujruen Blang, it requires a traditional leadership reorientation from the fixed role (the implementation of routine tasks only) to the role of a agent of change, who is able to reform the organization, improve irrigation, raise awareness of the peasants and the government, and redefinition of customary rules and Keujruen Blang.

PurposeThe main objective of this study is to examine the relationship between person-organization fit (P-O fit), job satisfaction (JS), workplace spirituality (WS) and turnover intentions in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and the moderate role of WS in these relationships.Design/methodology/approachResearch data were collected by cross-sectional data collection methods. The sample contains 242 employees of SMEs in Indonesia. The analytical method used to test research hypotheses is moderate regression analysis.FindingsThe results show that P-O fit is an antecedent that can reduce turnover intention. JS has a negative effect on turnover intention and WS has a negative effect on turnover intention. WS moderates the relationship between P-O fit and turnover intention and the relationship between JS and turnover intention.Research limitations/implicationsThis study enhances the understanding of the importance of WS in reducing employee turnover intentions. This research also contributes to the research model based on fit theory and social exchange theory.Practical implicationsThe practical implication of this research is to improve P-O fit in employees. Managers can manage the right people for the environment and the right environment for the individual. In other words, the organization must choose both. The most basic way to create a P-O fit for employees is to recruit employees suitable to organizational goals because, in general, SMEs rarely have a written vision and mission.Social implicationsThrough the of spirituality in the workplace, employees will experience a sense of meaning and purpose in their work, foster a sense of unity through positive relationships and achieve alignment between personal and organizational values. Consequently, this will diminish the inclination to seek employment elsewhere.Originality/valueAlthough turnover intention in employees is considered necessary, there is still minimal research that discusses turnover intention and WS in SMEs. To the authors' knowledge, no one has tested WS on the relationship between PO fit and JS with turnover intention in SMEs.
