An Integrative Literature Review on the Relationship between Training and Turnover : Focusing on Korean Academic Journals

Key Points

• Turnover intention shows mixed results in relation to employee training across individual studies—demonstrating negative, non-significant, or positive relationships.
• Fifty studies examining individual-level training and turnover intention exhibited inconsistent findings, while ten studies indicated a consistent negative relationship at the organizational level.
• Systematic literature review conducted on 60 empirical studies published in Korea up to October 2025 emphasizes the need for further exploration.
• This research proposes a conceptual framework integrating training, turnover, and related variables, highlighting academic and practical implications.
