The majority of studies to date have focused on the job demands that influence nurses in hospital setting; with the nurses working in nursing home is being less explored. Failure to meet the demand in work may give negative impact for employees such as job stress and burnout, which can lead to turnover intention. Burnout has been identified as mediating variable in the relationship between job demands and turnover intention. This paper is aimed to examine the literature on the relationship between job demands and turnover intention. The literature reviews shows that there will be a positive relationship between job demands and turnover intention and there is a mediation effect of burnout through indirect relationship between job demands and turnover intention. Social supports from family, resident and supervisor are suggested to moderate the relationship between job demand and turnover intention. The strength of relationship between job demand and turnover intention depend on the mediation effect of burnout and moderating effect of social support. The findings of this study are expected to help private nursing home and related industry in development of the policy to improve the quality of human resources specifically among nursing staff.
