The overall regression model showed a statistically significant relationship between the three forms of commitment (Affective, Normative and Continuance) and turnover intentions, although normative commitment had the strongest relationship with turnover intentions. The Study results provide additional evidence showing that employees’ affective, continuance, and normative commitment to their organizations relate to their turnover intentions. These results may contribute to positive social change by helping top level managers to better understand the relationship between employees’ organizational affective, continuance and normative commitment with turnover intentions.
