There are some features that distinguish tourist guiding from other occupations. Reasons such as being based on physical strength, requiring continuous development, being seasonal occupation and work-family conflict negatively affect the occupational commitment level of tourist guides and cause them to leave the occupation. In this context, the purpose of the study is to reveal the effect of occupational commitment level on intention to leave occupation of the active tourist guides within the Ministry of Culture and Tourism. In the research conducted on 265 professional tourist guides; it was concluded that there was a negative relationship between occupational commitment level (as one dimension) and subdimensions of occupational commitment and intention to leave occupation of tourist guides. It was seen that occupational commitment levels of tourist guides were high, with affective commitment being the most; but however, their intention to leave occupation was low. It was determined that continuance commitment didn’t have a significant effect on the intention to leave occupation.
