Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of career growth and job insecurity on turnover intentions on X company outsourcing workers in port services and to compare the influence of both independent variables on turnover intentions. This research was conducted on outsourcing workers with a total subject of 80 people. The data collection instrument used in this study is a questionnaire consisting of a translation of career growth measurement tools belonging to Weng and Hu (2009 in Weng et al, 2010), the global job insecurity measure (Mauno et al, 2001), and turnover intentions from Mobley et al (1978). Data analysis was performed using statistical techniques of multiple regression analysis with the help of IBM SPSS Statistics 21 software. Based on the results of the analysis obtained the R square value of 0.425 with a significance level of 0.00. These results indicate that career growth and job insecurity variables have a significant influence on turnover intentions. The comparison of the results of the two independent variables shows that career growth has a contribution of 45% with a coefficient of -0.641 and a significance level of 0.00. On the other hand, job insecurity has a contribution of 7.5% with a coefficient of 0.20 and a significance level of 0.852. Based on these results it can be concluded that the effect of career growth on turnover intentions is stronger than job insecurity.
