Does organizational performance affect employee turnover? A re‐examination of the turnover–performance relationship

By: Wang, Weijje and Sun, Rusi.
Material type: materialTypeLabelBookPublisher: Public Administration Description: 98(1), 2020: p.210-225.Subject(s): Middle schools, Employee In: Public AdministrationSummary: A common problem with using organizational performance as the dependent variable is the ignoring of feedback effect. The current conceptualization of the turnover–performance relationship is mostly unidirectional, focusing on how turnover affects organizational performance. Only a few scholars have investigated the possible reverse relationship between turnover and performance. Aiming to further the research on the feedback effect of organizational performance, this study employed cross‐lagged structural equation models that are especially suitable for modelling the possible reverse relationships between variables. Data were collected from public elementary and middle schools in New York City over a three‐year period. The results consistently show that organizational performance was negatively related to subsequent employee turnover. This research contributes to the development of a more valid and comprehensive understanding of the relationship between employee turnover and organizational performance. - Reproduced
