다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Similar to other government employees in general, turnover rate of correction officers is relatively low. However, various functions of the government has nowadays been privatized, and in corrections privatization has reached the point where an entire correction facility is run under private management. Also, businesses in need of professionals and specialists are seeking to recruit public servants with the required expertise. Businesses in the private sector such as law firms and private prisons may seek to recruit such expert public servants, which could lead to increased turnover rates. To address this issue, this research intends to empirically analyze secondary data from the Korea Social Science Data Archive(KOSSDA) to look for factors that influence turnover intentions of public servants. Results indicate factors that influence turnover rates are gender, rank, inate-related stress, relationship with fellow workers, perception towards the work environment and social evaluation of correctional work. Based on these results, this study proposes several countermeasures to address turnover of correctional officers. First, stressor of which are related to inmates and work environment should be eliminated, and work stress needs to be systematically managed. Secondly, efforts to maintain desirable relationships among coworkers and their superiors should be made. Lastly, it is necessary to improve social evaluation of correctional officers.
