Relationships between various person environment fit types and employee withdrawal behavior: A longitudinal study
Abstract This study investigated the relationships between various person environment fit types and employees' withdrawal attitudes and behaviors. I collected an initial survey data from 901 employees who had been with their organizations for 6 months at most and whose current organizations were their first employers. Of these respondents, only 297 responded to the second survey, 6 months after the first. The results showed person job, person supervisor, and person organization fits correlated significantly with turnover intention on the first survey. Logistic regression analyses showed only person organization fit correlated significantly with actual turnover at the time of Survey 2. I discuss implications and limitations of this study.
