Abstract

The main objective of this study was to investigate the relationship between the dimensions of organizational politics and turnover intentions in hotels and travel agencies in Egypt. The benefit of examining organization politics and perception of politics derives from their bad impact on employees performance and organizational outcomes. For this purpose, a model of organizational politics and its three antecedents was developed. The study is based on a quantitative methodology where data were collected from 20 five-star hotels and 20 travel agencies located in the Greater Cairo region in Egypt. A total of 250 surveys were valid for the final data analysis. Statistical Packages for Social Science (SPSS) software program was used to test the theoretical model.  It can be concluded that there was a significant positive relationship between organizational politics and turnover intentions. The findings also revealed that there was a significant positive relationship between general political behavior and turnover intentions.  On the other hand, there was no significant relationship between pay and promotion, and turnover intentions.  The results of this study may assist management to create good communication between managers and their workers which may reduce politics and intent to leave.
