Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A shock that causes a worker to reexamine his or her fit with the firm may lead to turnover as the worker considers whether they still want to work for the company. This could result from any type of shock, whether positive or negative, and regardless of the current labor market or the worker's level of embeddedness in their job. However, a positive shock that increases job satisfaction may actually decrease the likelihood of turnover.
