Findings - The findings reveal a direct effect of work stress on both job satisfaction and turnover intention, and there was also direct significant relationship between job satisfaction and turnover intention. Job satisfaction plays a mediatory role in the relationship between work stress and turnover intention. The results indicate the strategic policies of HR manager that they should consider stress and satisfaction when confront with high turnover. To identify the turnover leave, managers need to conduct routine survey regarding the employee intention.
