| Résumé : | This study explores the impact of negative body image on employee turnover intentions, integrating perspectives from various academic disciplines and examining the role of perceived discrimination. Data were collected from 860 full-time U.S. employees across different industries and analyzed using quantitative methods. The findings reveal that negative body image significantly influences turnover intentions both directly, through employees’ self-perceptions, and indirectly, via perceived workplace discrimination. Employees with negative body image feelings are therefore more likely to perceive discrimination, which, in turn increases the likelihood of them leaving their job. Limitations include a focus on full-time U.S. workers, which may not reflect part-time or international employees, and a reliance on self-reported data. The research highlights the importance of encouraging positive body image in the workplace to improve employee well-being and reduce turnover. The study offers practical recommendations for organizations, HR professionals, and policymakers to create supportive environments that address the effects of body image and discrimination, contributing new insights into micro-level management outcomes. |
