Abstract :

The rapid advancement of business in the seamless technology era has disrupted nearly every industry. Amidst this disruption, PT. Dayamitra Telekomunikasi (also known as/abbreviated as “Mitratel”) has encountered challenges, particularly an increasing rate of employee turnover. This turnover is thought to be driven by employee dissatisfaction with various internal and external company factors, along with low engagement levels.

Previous research suggests that poor job satisfaction often results in higher turnover intentions, whereas strong employee engagement can help reduce turnover. This study explores the relationship between job satisfaction, employee engagement, and turnover intention at PT Dayamitra Telekomunikasi.

The study employed a questionnaire based on an ordinal Likert scale, with data analyzed using the Partial Least Square (PLS) model, which doesn’t require a normal distribution and uses bootstrap techniques to examine correlations between latent variables.

The results show that job satisfaction significantly impacts turnover intention, with 76.1% of job satisfaction indicators negatively influencing turnover intentions. However, employee engagement has minimal influence, with only 3.2% of engagement indicators affecting turnover intention. Therefore, while higher job satisfaction reduces turnover, employee engagement does not substantially affect turnover intentions.

In summary, the study confirms that job satisfaction is crucial in lowering turnover intention, consistent with previous research, while employee engagement has a negligible effect on turnover rates.
