Abstract/Summary:
A cross sectional study of the United States Virgin Islands (USVI) public sector was conducted to ascertain whether the human resource management (HRM) practices were related to the employees' organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) and intentions to leave. A quantitative approach was taken to evaluate employees' perception. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that residence, gender, HR staff, and supervisory/managerial positions were determining factors. Residents correlated to turnover intentions; gender and supervisor/manager correlated to OCB, while being an HR staff correlated to the HRM factor, employee skill/organizational structure. The results of multiple regression analysis indicated that HRM practices did not predict OCB or turnover intentions.
