ABSTRACT
The study was conducted to determine the effect of work pressure on absenteeism,
lateness and turnover intentions while focusing on the mediation effect of
organizational support. Literatures related to the study were reviewed. A descriptive
cross-sectional survey design was employed and data obtained through structured selfadministered questionnaire. Data was collected from 414 employees within
Gwagwalada Area Council. Data obtained were analyzed with SPSS version 26.0.
Finding from the study revealed that 133 (32.1%) of the respondents were absent for
at least once in the past two months, out of which more than a third (38.3%) which
made up the highest proportion were absent twice within the past two months, more
than half (58.6%) stated health issues as the reason for their absence, only 32 (24.1%)
did not made request prior to absenting from work. It was also found that withdrawal
behaviours negatively impact the performance of workers in their workplace. Majority
unanimously agreed that poor working condition, work overload and shortage of
manpower were factors influencing employees’ absenteeism, lateness and turnover
intentions Also, similar views were shared among the majority about employee
relation, transportation problem as well as relationship among workers. Furthermore,
result showed that improved employer-employee communication, enhanced
management, adequate staffing and proper supervision would significantly minimize
absenteeism, lateness and turnover intention at workplace. Result of the hypothesis
revealed that personal characteristics significantly impact the absenteeism, lateness
and turnover intentions of employees, there was significant impact of job satisfaction
on employees’ turnover intention in the workplaces, there was association between
perceived organizational support and employees’ turnover intention in the workplaces
and also, there was a strong association between, workplace pressure, employee
absenteeism and organization commitment (affective, normative, continuance) with
the correlation of 0.548, 0.641, 0.665, 0.672, and 0.734, respectively.
