Abstract:

Long term commuting often brings psychological loneliness, anxiety, and a lack of security to residents, which may lead to a decrease in commuting satisfaction, life satisfaction, and employee loyalty. This study aims to explore the impact of commuting stress and life satisfaction on turnover intention among enterprise employees. The questionnaire was distributed in Beijing GLD Company, and 234 valid questionnaires were collected. Research was conducted using methods such as literature review, questionnaire survey, and empirical analysis. Through research, it has been found that (1) Commuting stress has a positive impact on turnover intention, with greater commuting stress leading to higher turnover intention; (2) Life satisfaction has a negative impact on turnover intention, with higher life satisfaction leading to lower turnover intention; (3) Commuting stress has a negative impact on life satisfaction, with higher commuting stress leading to lower life satisfaction; (4) Life satisfaction plays a moderating role in the impact of commuting stress on turnover intention. Based on the research findings, propose countermeasures and suggestions: (1) Implement the company’s happiness plan to cultivate employees’ long-term sense of happiness. (2) Implement precise recruitment during the recruitment phase. (3) In terms of employee training mechanisms, the focus is on strengthening life satisfaction education. (4) Establish a competitive performance-based compensation system. (5) Establish a flexible welfare system.
