Abstract

The current study examines employees’ loyalty and intention to change jobs through their perceptions of human resource management (HRM) practices. Although retention and loyalty are considered as key contributors to economic performance and competitiveness of organizations, little is known about how employees perceive organizational practices in their loyalty, intention to leave and in their choice of workplace selection. Therefore, current research intends to deepen the available knowledge regarding how members of various generations consider intention to stay or leave at a workplace in the context of HRM practices. The survey has been conducted on the sample of 1369 employees in 2023–2024 in Hungary. Quantitative analysis of data has been conducted with statistical methods. Results supported to define that loyalty and intention to change jobs depend on the respondents’ age and position, but gender and educational level have no influence on them. The study confirmed that generational affiliation determines which HRM, and onboarding practices are considered important for employees when choosing or staying at a workplace. Results might support further studies of employee perceptions and support organizations in designing HRM practices of integration and retention, thus contributing to the sustainability of labor and economic competitiveness of organizations.
