THE MEDIATING ROLE OF WORK ENGAGEMENT IN THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ORGANIZATIONAL JUSTICE AND JUNIOR ACCOUNTANTS TURNOVER INTENTIONS
This study examined work engagement as a mediator of the relationship between organizational justice (distributive and procedural) and junior accountants? turnover intentions. A random sampling method was employed in obtaining 83 samples (N=83) comprising of junior accountants from Jordanian public accounting firms. The analysis outcomes demonstrate the partial mediation of work engagement on the relationship between organizational justice and turnover intention. The study specifically discovered that distributive justice is positively linked with work engagement while negatively linked with turnover intention. Additionally, procedural justice is strongly and positively linked with work engagement but with turnover intention, the relationship is negative. A comprehensive model was introduced in this study and was validated in the context of Jordan. The outcomes suggest future investigation on practicable intervention strategies for reducing turnover intentions amongst junior accountants to prevent potential negative consequences to the firms.
