This study examined the factors that affect the turnover intention of newly graduated nurses. The basic data was utilized for developing a personnel resource maintenance program for newly graduated nurses. New nurses working at a general hospital in City D were surveyed from May 2016 to April 2018. The questionnaires completed by 232 volunteers were analyzed using the IBM SPSS 21.0 program, and the descriptive statistical analyses included t-tests, ANOVA, Scheffe test, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and multiple regression analysis. Among the general characteristics of new nurses, their workload displayed significant differences in proactive behavior, organizational commitment, social support, and the turnover intention. There was a negative correlation between organizational commitment, employer support, peer support, and the turnover intention. The influential factors were organizational commitment and workload, and the explanatory power for turnover intention was 36.1%. Higher organizational commitment, along with appropriate workload, led to a lower turnover intention. Therefore, appropriate work allocation through work analysis is necessary to lower the nurses' turnover intention. Developing a program that can increase proactive behavior and implementing various intervention strategies can increase the participation of newly graduated nurses when establishing and implementing appropriate hospital policies.

The purpose of this study was to examine the level of stress, healthcare accreditation related job stress, adaptation, and turnover intentions, as well as to identify influencing factors of turnover intentions for operating room nurses. This study employed a descriptive correlational design. The data were collected from 163 operating room nurses using a structural questionnaire. Stress was different by age (F=5.629, p=.004), marital status (t=-2.907, p=.004), and children (t=-2.623, p=.010). Healthcare accreditation related job stress was different by age (F=11.924, p<.001), marital status (t=-4.747, p<.001), children (t=-4.434, p<.001), work experience in the OR (F=6.000, p=.003), and work reasons in the OR (t=-2.543, p=.012). Turnover intention was different by age (F=21.472, p<.001), education level (F=4.997, p<.008), religion (t=3.235, p=.001), work experience in the OR (F=13.599, p<.001), position (t=3.222, p=.002), work reasons in the OR (t=-3.001, p=.003), and a shift pattern of duties (t=-2.797, p=.006). Turnover intention was significantly correlated with stress, healthcare accreditation related job stress, and adaptation. Factors affecting turnover intention were healthcare accreditation related job stress, adaptation, and age. These factors accounted for 36.2% of turnover intention. These results suggest that relief of stress and healthcare accreditation related job stress and interventions for improving stress management.

This study is a descriptive survey study conducted to identify the factors affecting the turnover intention of hospital nurses who were cohort-isolated due to the outbreak of COVID-19. The data collected from 191 university hospital nurses were analyzed using the IBM SPSS Statistics 23 program by descriptive statistics, t-test, Pearson's correlation analysis, ANOVA, and multiple regression analysis. Among the factors affecting the turnover intention, the higher the infection control job stress (𝛽=.40, p<.001), the lower the support of the boss among social support at work (𝛽=-.21, p=.004). The lower the resilience (𝛽=-.16, p=.016) the higher the turnover intention. The explanatory power of these variables was 25% (Adj. R²=.25, F=16.99, p<.001). In particular, the infection control job stress of hospital nurses who had the entire hospital under cohort-isolated due to the outbreak of COVID-19 was above average. It is necessary to find a way to reduce infection control job stress, and to reduce the negative aspects of the organization and work with the support of the superior to lower the turnover intention. In addition, it is necessary to seek to reduce turnover intention as a program to strengthen resilience to improve resilience.
