Abstract: This study examines the predictors of turnover intention among nurses, focusing on personal variables, work environment, organisational justice, job embeddedness, and satisfaction. Using a non-experimental design with 92 nurses, data was collected through standardised questionnaires and analysed with descriptive and inferential statistics, including T-test, ANOVA, Pearson's R, and Multiple Regression. Findings reveal that most nurses perceive a positive work environment but hold opposing views on organisational justice. High job embeddedness was noted, though job satisfaction varied. The respondents intend to remain with the organisation, with age significantly linked to work environment perceptions. Length of service correlated with work environment and organisational justice, and work arrangements influenced organisational justice. Diligence impacted organisational justice and job satisfaction. While personal factors like age, sex and income show no significant association with turnover intention, diligence is notably linked to turnover intentions. The study highlights the critical role of work environment, organisational justice, and job satisfaction in predicting nurses' turnover intention.
