dc.description.abstract |
Organisations are facing significant challenges to retain Generation Y employees. Research
shows that, once these individuals are employed, they are not likely to remain in that position for
very long. Organisations therefore need to find innovative solutions to retain this group of
employees. The purpose of this research was to determine the causal relationship between
management support towards talent management and the impact thereof on the turnover
intentions of Generation Y employees. The Human Capital Index, Perceived Organisational
Support Questionnaire, Perceived Organisational Support and Intention to Quit questionnaires
were administered among a convenience sample of generation Y employees (N=135). The results
showed that Perceived Organisational Support is significantly related to Talent management
practices, Perceived Supervisor Support and Intention to Quit. Perceived Supervisor Support is
significantly related to Talent management practices and Intention to Quit. Talent management
practices are significantly related to intention to quit. Recommendations are made. |
