The purpose of this paper is to examine the role of meaning of work as a linking mechanism between the perception of work context and turnover intention within the rarely studied context of social enterprises.,Drawing on meaning of work theories, an integrated research model was developed. Data were collected using questionnaires from 315 full-time employees at 114 social enterprises in Korea. Mediated and moderated structural equation models were used to assess the hypotheses.,Social mission was fully mediated by meaning of work to predict low turnover intention, and shared vision was partially mediated to predict the same. The authors also found that the positive relationship between social mission and meaning of work was stronger when shared vision was higher.,This study extends previous literature on managerial psychology (i.e. meaning of work and turnover) in the context of a new but increasingly prevalent organizational form, social enterprises. It also provides practical advice for managers seeking to retain employees and encourage the sustainability of the social enterprise sector.

社会企业的工作环境和离职意图：工作意义的中介作用

本文的目的是在社会企业很少研究的背景下研究工作意义作为工作语境感知与离职意图之间联系机制的作用。借鉴工作理论的意义，建立了一个综合研究模型。使用问卷调查从韩国114家社会企业的315名全职员工中收集数据。使用中介的和适度的结构方程模型来评估假设。社会使命是通过工作意义来完全中介的，以预测低离职意图，而共同愿景是部分地中介的，以预测低离职意图。作者还发现，当共同的愿景更高时，社会使命与工作意义之间的正向关系就更强了。该研究扩展了先前有关管理心理学的文献（即 工作和离职的含义）在一种新的但越来越流行的组织形式中，即社会企业。它还为寻求留住员工并鼓励社会企业部门可持续发展的管理人员提供了实用建议。
