Using Cranach Alpha, the reliability of job engagement (0.75), job propriety (0.87), work ethics (0.70), and intent to leave (0.84) was calculated. Obtained data were analyzed by correlation method and modified stepwise regression.
Results: Results showed a positive and significant correlation between two variables of job engagement and job propriety and work ethics (p=0.001, r=0.16, r=0.25). Also, there is a negative and significant correlation between two variables of job engagement, job propriety and intent to leave (p=0.001, r=-0.28, r=-0.32).
