The Impact of Workplace Values on Turnover Intention of Generation Z : The Case of Government Employees in Rabat

Résumé

Generation Z, also known as the Zapper Generation, has recently started to occupy an important place in the job market. This generation has particular values and attitudes within work such as autonomy and freedom... The purpose of this study is to ascertain the impact of values at work on turnover intention. The literature has identified six facets of professional values (intrinsic, extrinsic, social, altruistic, status-related and freedom-related). A total of 500 surveys questionnaires were distributed to Generation Z employees in the Rabat region, 400 were returned and we recorded a return rate of 80%. The results partially confirm previous studies that only intrinsic, extrinsic, social and freedom values have a negative and significant influence on the turnover intention ; while altruistic and status-related values have none.
