Abstract

This research examines the influence of job insecurity and workload on turnover intention mediated by job stress. Seven research hypotheses were developed based on theoretical concepts and the results of previous empirical research. The research sample was employees at CV Langit Kuliner Sejahtera with a sample size of 98 people. The questionnaire instrument was used to collect research data. Data analysis in the form of partial least squares (PLS) analysis was applied to test the research hypothesis. The test results showed that the five hypotheses regarding direct influence showed significant results and in the appropriate direction. It was found that job insecurity and workload had a positive and significant effect on employee intention and job stress. Likewise, it was found that job stress had a positive effect on turnover intention. Additional testing shows that job stress has a mediating effect on the influence of job insecurity and workload on turnover intention.
