In the past, employees might be happy to remain in the organization where it could provide good job security. However, the competitive pressure from their competitors has made many organizations reluctant to focus on downsizing, restructuring therefore created less job security provided to employees. Many employees considered that their organization has broken the secure organizational bond and unhappiness might bring employees to tend to begin their new job search.

It will become a huge issue for the organization to achieve their objectives as no organizations in fact, can survive in today’s competitive world unless their employees work effectively and are committed to the organization’s goals. Hence, organizations have no choice but have to consider maintaining their employees, especially...
