| Summary: | The study is to examine the impact of HR practices on organizational commitment and turnover
intention. Four hundred and fifty seven employees from various industries in a region in one of the states in
Malaysia participated in the survey. HR practices were measured using employees’ perception on career
management, person-job fit, compensation and performance appraisal. All the four HR practices were found
significantly related to organizational commitment and negatively related to turnover intention. Another important
finding is organizational commitment was found as a partial mediator between HR practices and turnover intention.
Given the findings, HR policies should be well designed because they were found to give strong effect in
explaining the variance in organizational commitment. |
