“…We recommend that decision‐makers implement regulatory measures to avoid a vicious cycle in which permanent nurses become dissatisfied with their situation, detach from the institution and quit, thereby intensifying the need to rely on external staffing agencies. Crucially, this cycle may apply in particular to permanent nurses with high levels of intrinsic motivation (Fila et al., 2023). Based on our findings, we encourage measures to reduce permanent nurses' exposure to temporary nurses.…”

AimsTo explore illegitimate tasks as a potential mechanism that links permanent nurses' perceived exposure to temporary nurses to lower levels of affective organizational commitment.DesignA time‐lagged cross‐sectional survey study.MethodsSurvey data from N = 239 permanent nurses in the German‐speaking part of Switzerland were analysed via Structural Equation Models.ResultsThe study revealed a negative relationship between permanent nurses' perceived exposure to temporary nurses and their level of organizational commitment that was mediated by perceptions of unreasonable and unnecessary tasks.ConclusionHealthcare institutions increasingly depend on temporary nurses to fill staffing vacancies. Our data suggest that the deployment of temporary nurses may have adverse effects on permanent nurses' affective organizational commitment via perceptions of illegitimate tasks.ImpactOur quantitative survey study provides a novel, theory‐driven understanding of how perceived exposure to temporary nurses may impact work‐related attitudes of permanent nurses.Implications for the Profession and/or Patient CareOur findings suggest that the clinical community should limit permanent nurses' exposure to temporary nursing staff to protect their commitment. If this is not possible, we encourage strategies to counteract associated feelings of illegitimacy, for example, by showing appreciation for permanent nurses' willingness to take over responsibility for temporary nurses.Reporting MethodThe study adheres to the STROBE reporting guidelines for cross‐sectional studies.Patient or Public ContributionNo patient or public contribution.

“…Penelitian sebelumnya mengungkapkan bahwa terdapat faktor penting agar karyawan berkeinginan untuk tetap bersama organisasi adalah karena adanya pemimpin yang suportif (7)(8)(9). Secara khusus, pemimpin yang suportif lebih cenderung meningkatkan motivasi intrinsik karyawan mereka dan kepuasan kerja serta dengan demikian menurunkan niat berpindah (10)(11)(12). Dalam konteks penelitian ini servant leadership dipilih, karena pemimpin dengan tipe ini cenderung untuk lebih menghargai, mengembangkan orang, membangun komunitas, mempraktikkan keaslian (apa adanya), menyediakan kepemimpinan untuk kebaikan yang dipimpin, dan berbagi kekuasaan dan status untuk kebaikan bersama setiap individu, dan seluruh organisasi, termasuk mereka yang dilayani oleh organisasi (3).…”

This study's objective is to examine the influence of servant leadership on turnover intention and the impact of organizational affective commitment as a mediator between these two relationship constructs. This investigation employs a quantitative methodology by surveying restaurant employees in Surabaya using questionnaires. Utilizing Structural Equation Modeling Partial Least Square (SEM PLS), the collected survey data were analyzed. 78 restaurant employees participated in this investigation as respondents. According to the findings of this study, servant leadership and affective organizational commitment have a significant negative effect on turnover intention. In addition, affective organizational commitment can substantially and negatively moderate the relationship between servant leadership and turnover intention. In this research, both theoretical and practical implications are discussed.
