Abstract

The current research aims to investigate the internal and external factors influencing faculty turnover intention, with attention to foreign lecturers, among faculty members in one of the universities in Malaysia. The intention of a person to leave their current employment can be referred to as turnover intention. Previous analyses have revealed these ideas to be an employee’s desired strategy for quitting their current job and looking for another one. Job security, supervisor support, remuneration satisfaction, job autonomy, key performance indicators (KPI) achievability, and job satisfaction are the different factors that influence employees’ intentions to leave their jobs. The finding indicates that structural factors including job autonomy, remuneration satisfaction, and KPI achievability contributed to the explanation of turnover intention. These variables play a more significant part in influencing foreign lecturers’ decisions to quit and move to a better job opportunity.
