Effect of Nurses’ Organizational Culture, Workplace Bullying and Work Burnout on Turnover Intention

The purpose of this study was to identify the factors that affect a nurse’s turnover intention. A questionnaire survey was conducted on nurses working for general hospitals in South Korea, and the data obtained from the accomplished questionnaires were analyzed using SPSS Windows 18.0. Factors influencing the turnover intention of a nurse were identified as innovative culture (β=-0.09), relational culture (β=-0.43), hierarchical culture (β=0.43), workplace bullying (β=0.53), and work burnout (β=0.27). The results indicate the major factors influencing the turnover intention of a nurse. Therefore, these factors may serve as predictors of nurse's turnover intention how this would benefit an employer.
