Talent Turnover Intention of Civil Engineers from India

Civil engineers tend to move between construction organizations in the employment market due to employee's individual perception/requirement/need. The study has been initiated with a thorough literature review and variables have been picked and collected for further study. During literature review it realised that good volume of talent turnout study has been carried out in other than civil engineering stream/s by researcher in past time. From the study it is found that previous researches have not considered project site location/ working location as one of the variables in their study. Hence, the present study has been carried out considering the project site location as an independent variable. To confirm reliability of the questionnaire, pilot study has been carried out. To do so 15% of sample responses has been collected and analysed for reliability. McDonald's omega found to be greater than the base value for four dimensions and point estimate is found to be 0.874. Considering the reliability test questionnaire has been frozen, responses has been collected from sample on/off line and the responses have been collated, analyzed. The model Fit appears to be good as the Root Mean Square Error Approximation (RMSEA)=0.07, Comparative Fit Index (CFI)=0.91, Tucker Lewis Index(TLI)=0.90 and thus model fit turns out to be satisfactory( Hair Jr et all 2018). From mediation testing it is noted that the project site location is directly influencing the talent turnout and the relationship between project site location and talent turnout is found to be influenced by mediators like, pay, training etc.
