Abstract
This study explores the relationship between job resources, work engagement and turnover intention. Specifically, the study applies the Job-Demands Resources (JD-R) Model to examine relationships between these variables and establish the extent to which contextual factors across two geographical regions, namely Asian and non-Asian countries influence interactions between the variables. Data was collected using an online survey administered via Survey Monkey to respondents who met the selection criteria. Respondents were selected using convenience and snowballing sampling techniques. Hypotheses were tested using regression analysis. It was found that the two dimension of job resources i.e., supervisor support and career development influence work engagement whereas autonomy did not have a significant impact on work engagement across all respondents and both the Asian and non-Asian context. Interestingly, this study found that the two dimensions of job resources i.e., autonomy and supervisor support and two dimensions of work engagement i.e., dedication and absorption did not have a significant impact on turnover intention. Similarly, vigour, a dimension of work engagement had a significant impact on turnover intention in the non-Asian context but not the Asian context. The key contribution of the study lies in extending the testing of the JD-R Model and identifying contextual factors that influence interactions between variables derived from the JD-R Model. The findings of the study also make significant managerial contributions.
