This research aims to ascertain, analyze, and elucidate the influence of job insecurity and job satisfaction on turnover intention, the impact of job insecurity on job satisfaction, and the mediating role of job satisfaction in the relationship between job insecurity and turnover intention. The study adopts a quantitative approach and focuses on a population of 222 employees, with a sample size of 70 individuals from Nahdlatul Ulama Hospital in Jombang. Data were collected through the distribution of questionnaires employing a Likert scale. Data analysis was conducted using Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Square (SEM-PLS) with the assistance of the SmartPLS software. The findings of this research indicate that the perception of high job insecurity among employees can potentially trigger an increase in turnover intention. Concurrently, high levels of job insecurity may lead to a decline in job satisfaction. Furthermore, low job satisfaction can also contribute to an increase in turnover intention among employees. Additionally, it is observed that job satisfaction partially mediates the relationship between job insecurity and turnover intention. This study contributes valuable insights into the complex dynamics of job insecurity, job satisfaction, and turnover intention in the context of healthcare organizations. The implications of these findings extend to the broader field of human resource management and offer practical guidance for mitigating turnover intention among healthcare professionals.
