Abstract
With increased competition in various industries comes increased organizational pressure to develop. Human resources are the most important assets in an organization because it is a source capable of directing, maintaining, and developing organizations to meet various demands of society and times. This study aims to analyze the effect of workload on turnover intention mediated by work stress and work engagement at four-star hotels in Surabaya Indonesia. In this study, data collection was obtained using questionnaires and saturated sample methods. The sample in this study is all employees at four-star hotels in Surabaya Indonesia, totaling 60 respondents. Partial Least Square approach was used for model analysis. The results showed that workload has a significant effect on turnover intention. Workload also has a significant effect on work stress and work engagement, and work stress and work engagement have a significant effect on turnover intention. The findings of this study suggest that four-star hotels in Surabaya Indonesia need to pay more attention to the tasks that are allocated to employees according to their abilities so that employees do not feel overwhelmed and can complete these tasks optimally, on time, and they need to create a strategy to relieve employee stress during work.
