Özet:

Work stress exposed in the work environment is a common problem that employees often encounter and if not solved, it can cause large negative problems enough to leave the workplace. However, as a result of serving a large purpose or linking with a passion for work, workers experience less stress and the idea of leaving work is also reduced. For the purpose of testing this argument and investigating the relationship of the related concepts, a research was carried out at the airports located in the provinces of Antalya, Kayseri and Isparta. For the research, 141 local service employees were collected data using the survey technique. The data was analyzed using the SPSS 22 package program. When the findings were studied, it was found that the meaning of the work reduces both the work stress and the intention to leave the work. Work stress increases the intention of leaving the job. As a remarkable conclusion, the meaning of the work is also mediated by work stress in the impact of the intention to leave the work. From here, the meaning of the work can be achieved because it actually reduces the work stress and affects the intention to leave the work. Therefore, it can be said that finding the work of employees meaningful generates significant results for organizations.
