Özet

AimThe aim of this study is to determine the effect of organizational support and COVID-19 macro-control perception levels on intention to quit in physicians and nurses. BackgroundDuring the pandemic process, healthcare workers faced great health risks and workloads. Many health workers are considering quitting their job. MethodA cross-sectional and explanatory research. The sample of the study consisted of 300 nurses and 73 physicians. To collect data, COVID-19 perception of macro-control, perceived organizational support, and intention to quit scales were used. Structural equation modeling was used. ResultsCOVID-19 macro-control perception and perceived organizational support have a negative effect on the intention to quit. The perceived organizational support has a partial mediating role, on the COVID-19 macro-control perception and the intention to quit. ConclusionThis study demonstrated that the macro measures taken against the pandemic and the organizational support received by the nurses and physicians, who are the main actors in the fight against the epidemic, negatively affected their intention to leave. Implications for nursing practice and clinical relevanceTo reduce the intention to quit health workers during the COVID-19 pandemic, scientific-based macro-control measures should be taken, and organizational support should be provided.
