Therefore, finding what causes the employees to leave the sector is utmost important in making policy decisions. Hence, this study explores the determinants of turnover intention of Officers in Charge in one of the government owned Plantation Company in Sri Lanka. The data for the study were collected from all the 72 Officers in Charge in the company through a questionnaire. The data were analyzed using Descriptive Techniques and Logistic Regression.
