Abstract:

Expatriate turnover is a potentially expensive problem for organisations. This study examined the process of cognitive evaluation that can result in the formation of turnover intentions. Expatriates from two organisations participated. Results indicated that facets of justice and adjustment interacted to explain turnover intentions. Specifically, when procedural fairness perceptions were low, general adjustment was related to turnover perceptions. Also, assignment satisfaction partially mediated relationships between facets of justice and adjustment and turnover cognitions. Findings are integrated into existing models of expatriate adjustment and turnover cognitions.

La rotation du personnel expatrié revient potentiellement cher aux organisations. Cette étude examine comment le processus d'évaluation cognitive peut avoir comme résultat l'émergence d'intentions de turnover. Des expatriés de deux organisations ont participéà cette étude. Les résultats indiquaient que les aspects de la justice et de l'adaptation interagissaient pour expliquer les intentions de turnover. Plus particulièrement, lorsque les perceptions d'équité procédurale étaient basses, l'adaptation générale était liée aux perceptions de turnover. De plus, la satisfaction de la mission influençait partiellement les relations entre les aspects de la justice, l'adaptation et les cognitions à propos du turnover. Ces résultats ont été intégrés aux modèles existants à propos de l'adaptation des expatriés et des cognitions à propos du turnover.
