Thriving is an essential component of sustainable development for nurses as well as organizations
and job embeddedness is a key factor for nurses to thrive in the workplace. Aim of the study:
Explore the relation between intensive care nurses' job embeddedness and workplace thriving.
Method: Design: A correlational design was utilized. Subjects: The study's subjects consisted of all
(183) intensive care nurses Tools: Two tools were used for data collection, Intensive Care Nurses'
Job Embeddedness Questionnaire and Intensive Care Nurses' Workplace Thriving Questionnaire.
Results: The results showed that 69.4% of intensive care nurses had a low level and around one
quarter (24%) had a moderate level of total job embeddedness. 54.1 of intensive care nurses had a
moderate level, and 25.1% had a low level regarding the total workplace thriving. Conclusion:
Intensive care nurses' had a low level of both job embeddedness and workplace thriving. There was
a highly statistically significant correlation between total intensive care nurses' job embeddedness
