Özet: The ability of organizations to continue their activities in today's economic competition conditions is seen as an important achievement. In order to sustain this success, organizations need proactive, high-performance employees who prioritize and devote themselves to their jobs. Work engagement is that employees give their energy to their work and do their work passionately. Job characteristics in organizations require practices that will ensure engagement in the job. The characteristics of the job done in organizations can affect the employees' dedication and intention to leave. This study will examine the relationship between job characteristics, commitment to work, and intention to leave. For this purpose, the expressions about the variables were converted into a questionnaire and applied in a manufacturing firm. The developed model was tested with the SEM-PLS method. In the developed model, validity and reliability analyses were performed. As a result of the analysis, the effect of job characteristics on the engagement to the job and the effect of the commitment on the intention to leave were significant.
