Abstract

The objective of this study is to investigate and analyze the impact of work stress, organizational climate, and organizational commitment on turnover intention, with job satisfaction acting as a mediating variable among government employees with work
agreements in the Tegal City Government. The primary concern is the occurrence of turnover among State Civil Apparatus. The population for this study comprises all government employees with work agreements in the Tegal City Government, totaling
330 individuals, while the sample size selected was 82 individuals. Data collection was conducted through the distribution of questionnaires. The research methodology employed in this study is quantitative, utilizing Partial Least Square (PLS) as the analysis
tool. The analysis results revealed that organizational commitment and job satisfaction have a significant influence on turnover intention, whereas work stress and organizational climate do not have an impact on turnover intention. The mediation test
results demonstrate that job satisfaction significantly mediates the effect of organizational climate and organizational commitment on turnover intention in a negative direction.
