<br/><br/> ABSTRACT<br/>Sexual harassment and workplace incivility can seriously harm nurses' intentions to <br/>leave their jobs and their sense of job satisfaction. Incivility and sexual harassment <br/>was studied if it is found to be significant predictors of nurses' desire to leave and <br/>job satisfaction in a research study done in the Nigerian states of Lagos and Ogun, <br/>which included a sample of 350 participants, 210 from Lagos and 140 from Ogun. <br/>These findings will highlight the need for interventions to address and prevent <br/>incivility and sexual harassment in the workplace, in order to improve retention and <br/>satisfaction among nurses. This study aims to examine the impact of workplace <br/>incivility and sexual harassment on nurses' job satisfaction and intention to leave.<br/>Workplace incivility and sexual harassment put nurses’ job security, earning <br/>potential, and ability to produce at risk, which exposes them to low morale and a <br/>toxic organizational culture. The abused employees are advised to speak up, form <br/>networks of support, and take action to stop sexual harassment and workplace <br/>incivility. The findings suggest that both workplace incivility and sexual harassment <br/>are significant predictors of nurses' intention to leave and job satisfaction. <br/>Specifically, nurses who experienced higher levels of workplace incivility and sexual <br/>harassment reported lower levels of job satisfaction and higher intention to leave <br/>their current jobs. The study highlights the importance of addressing workplace <br/>incivility and sexual harassment in healthcare settings to improve nurses' job <br/>satisfaction and retention.<br/>Keywords: Intention to Leave, Job Satisfaction, Lagos, Nurses, Ogun, Sexual <br/>Harassment Workplace Incivility
