COMPREHENDING TURNOVER INTENTIONS: THE INTERACTION OF PERSON-JOB FIT, ORGANIZATIONAL POLITICS, AND EMPLOYEE RESILIENCE IN LIBERIA'S HEALTHCARE SECTOR

Summary/Abstract: Using person–environment (P–E) fit theory as its guiding framework, this study investigates how organizational politics (OP) affect employee resilience (ER), person-job fit (PJF), and turnover intentions (TIs) among healthcare workers in Liberia's public and private institutions. Convenience sampling was used to collect data from 371 medical professionals across six regions of Liberia, and partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) was used for the analysis. Results show that OP both favorably affects ER and significantly raises TIs, while more resilient employees are less likely to consider quitting. ER partially mediates the relationship between OP and TIs, and PJF moderates both the OP–TIs and ER–TIs relationships. The findings highlight the need for healthcare administrators to manage OP through open communication and equitable decision-making, to build employee resilience, and to ensure strong alignment between workers and their jobs.
