Abstract: Addressing turnover has consistently remained a pivotal concern across industries. Mitigating turnover can empower organizations to retain their crucial personnel, consequently fostering heightened productivity and potentially bolstered profitability. This study delves into the correlation between employees' perception of organizational politics and the lure of alternative job offers featuring better compensation as drivers of turnover among Bank Alfalah (Karachi) personnel. Employing a cross-sectional approach with deductive reasoning, this study collected responses through survey questionnaires from Bank Alfalah employees. The outcomes unveiled a noteworthy positive association between turnover and both perceived organizational politics and the appeal of higher-paying alternative job opportunities. Additionally, the study unearthed that office politics plays a more robust role in translating turnover intentions into decisions. These findings bear significant implications not only for the banking sector but also for theoretical advancements in research centered around organizational politics and the allure of enhanced compensation through alternative employment avenues.
