Keywords:
Organizational Citizenship Behavio, Employee Turnover IntentionAbstract
This paper investigates the influence of Organizational Citizenship Behavior (OCB) on employee turnover intention of participants from a Thai and a Chinese lighting company. The result of linear regression exercises show that OCB, perceived job alternatives and generation are the most powerful predictor for the variance of employee turnover intention for Thai sample. As to Chinese sample, only the causality between perceived job alternatives and intention to leave is available while all other variables cannot predict the variance of employee turnover intentions. In addition, probit regression providing findings that both intention to search and intention to leave can be explained by perceived job alternatives, while tenure, position and sportsmanship only take accounts of intention to leave
