Özet:

This study aimed to investigate the relationship among Quality of Work Life (QWL), Workplace Deviance (WD) and Turnover Intention (TI) and to indicate the effect of sub-dimensions of QWL on sub-dimensions of WD. This paper covers the effect of the research of a subject which has not been handled in the literature. In this context, QWL which was designed by Demir (2009) via the studies of Walton (1975), Gilbert (1989) and Sirgy etc. (2001) at the scale of WD which was designed by Demir (2010) by using the study of Hollinger & Clark (1982b), Robinson & Bennett (1995) and Lawrence & Robinson (2007) at the scale of TI designed and adapted to Turkish by Avcı (2008) through the study of Wayne etc. (1997). It’s applied to the 794 employees in the cargo sector in Turkey, Istanbul. Survey data was analyzed with SPSS software. Analysis of the survey data significantly confirmed that TI is negatively associated with QWL, while WD is positively associated with TI. On the other hand, QWL is negatively associated with WD. Besides, it is determined that WD together with QWL predicted approximately 59% of the total variance of TI. As a consequence it’s investigated that some of the sub-dimensions of QWL is the current predictor for sub-dimensions of WD
