The analyses revealed a significant negative relationship between job satisfaction and the turnover intention of employees. The results showed that the socio-demographics of respondents are relevant to their job happiness. It was revealed that employees had fair satisfaction with their jobs, although promotion and work conditions barely influenced their satisfaction. Based on these findings, the study recommended further practice and research.
