Abstract
Abstract
Background
As turnover intention is a strong determinant of actual turnover behavior, scholars should identify determinants of turnover intention.
Purpose
To assess the effect of quiet quitting on nurses’ turnover intention. Additionally, we investigated the impact of several demographic and job characteristics on turnover intention.
Methods
A cross-sectional study with 629 nurses in Greece was conducted. Data collected during June 2023. We measured quiet quitting with the “Quiet Quitting” scale.
Findings:
In our sample, 60.9% of nurses were considered as quiet quitters, while 40.9% experienced high levels of turnover intention. Multivariable regression analysis showed a positive relationship between quiet quitting and turnover intention. Moreover, we found that turnover intention was higher among females, shift workers, nurses in the private sector, and those that they considered their workplace as understaffed. Also, we found a positive relationship between clinical experience and turnover intention.
Conclusions
Since quiet quitting affects turnover intention, organizations, policy makers and managers should address this issue to improve nurses’ intention to stay at their works.
