Context: The intention to quit is a step before the actual leaving the job. The complex conditions of treating covid 19 patients, nurses physical pressures and mental tensions during the covid-19 pandemic, encourage them to quit their jobs. The present study was conducted to determine the factors related to the willingness of nurses to quit during the covid-19 pandemic in the hospitals of Isfahan city.
Method: 416 nurses working in the hospitals of Isfahan participated in this cross-sectional descriptive-analytical research in the form of quota sampling and systematic random stratification. The data collection tool was a researcher-made questionnaire with high validity and reliability (0.95) that measured the intention to quit of nurses during the covid-19 pandemic in 4 dimensions of individual, occupational, organizational and transorganizational factors. SPSS version 25 software was used for data analysis.
Findings The average score of nurses' willingness to leave during the corona pandemic in Isfahan hospitals was 2.98 out of 5. The average of Transorganizational factors (3.30) was higher than the average of organizational factors (3.05) in driving the intention to leave of nurses. A relation was seen between demographic information such as; received compensation, secondary job and total income and intention to quit.
Conclusion: During the covid-19 pandemic, several factors lead to the quit in the group of nurses. Since the willingness to leave the job in public hospitals is higher than in private hospitals, managers of these organizations should pay more attention to evaluating factors, determining their impact and making effective decisions.
