Second, we discussed the multilevel interaction between on the job embeddedness of coworkers and individual using the questionnaire and actual turnover behavior after five month. Data were collected from 330 employees of a life insurance company in Taiwan. Results showed that (1) work motivation and on the job embeddedness had positive relationships, (2) on the job embeddedness and turnover had negative relationships, (3) on the job embededness mediated the relationship between work motivation and turnover, (4) moderated mediation effect by coworkers on the job embededness supported actual turnover behavior only, but it didn’t support intention of turnover, and (5) the multilevel moderated mediation models fit including work motivation was better. The implication of the results suggested that based on social cognitive theory, individual's work motivation, on the job embeddedness and turnover had an interactive relationship. On the other hand, it should not ignore the importance of colleagues in the workplace.
