Abstract: The objective of this study is to determine the relationship between job satisfaction and intention to quit among nurses in Peru. The methodology used is quantitative, non-experimental, cross-sectional, descriptive correlational study. The sample consisted of 335 nursing professionals from various public and private institutions in Peru. The G Clinic questionnaire was used to measure job satisfaction and the Boshoff and Allen questionnaire was used to measure intention to quit. The results show that the 55.5% of nurses had medium job satisfaction and 63.6% had low levels of intention to leave. The higher the job satisfaction, work climate, interpersonal relationships, work motivation and recognition, the lower the levels of intention to quit (p?0.05). It is concluded that there is a negative mean correlation was found between job satisfaction and intention to quit, the same was true for the dimensions of job satisfaction. It is important for health institutions to strengthen the job satisfaction of their workers in order to build their loyalty and prevent them from leaving their jobs.
