The Mediating Role of Turnover Intention in The Relationship Between Job Insecurity and Compulsory Citizenship Behavior: A Research in The Aviation Industry

Abstract

In this study, we proposed and tested a mediation model that examines turnover intentions as the mediators in the relationship between job insecurity and compulsory citizenship behavior. Data were collected from 213 employees of one private airline company and one private ground handling company located in İstanbul, Turkey. The results showed that job insecurity was positively related to compulsory citizenship behavior. Furthermore, turnover intention mediated the relationship between job insecurity and compulsory citizenship behavior. The implications, limitations, and future research directions are also discussed.
