Abstract

The purpose of this paper was to study how young adult workers are recognizing their career-urgency, career-urgency-provoking situations and turnover intention, and to examine the relationship among each concept. We asked 256 workers in their 20's to answer a questionnaire on the internet, which consisted of career-urgency (Feeling under Pressure, Urge to Develop Career, and Concern of Career), career-urgency-provoking situations (Stagnation of Career Exploration, Low Evaluation from Affiliations, Upward Comparison with Friends' and Acquaintances' Careers, and Lack of Work-life Balance), and turnover intention. The results of covariance structural analysis were summarized below: (1) Stagnation of Career Exploration, Upward Comparison with Friends' and Acquaintances' Careers, and Lack of Work-life Balance led to turnover intention through Feeling under Pressure. (2) Low Evaluation from Affiliations, Upward Comparison with Friends' and Acquaintances' Careers, and Lack of Work-life Balance promoted urge to Develop Career. (3) Stagnation of Career Exploration promoted Concern of Career. In conclusion, the findings indicate that Feeling under Pressure, which is the negative aspect of Career-Urgency, alone would lead young adult workers to promote their turnover intention.
