Due to demanding workloads, stressful conditions, and increasing pressure to work more efficiently, this problem is likely to persist. Consequently, implementing proactive strategies to support HCWs retention is needed. This study aimed to examine associations between work environment factors and ICU HCWs\u2019 intentions to quit.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Based on data from a prospective, open\u2010cohort, multicenter study of hospital frontline workers conducted during the four main waves of the COVID\u201119 pandemic in Norway, we analyzed self\u2010reported data from HCWs who completed the final survey, which included two outcomes relevant to turnover: (1) frequent thoughts of quitting and (2) intention to look for a new job. A work\u2010environment \u2010factor tool assessing occupational risk and characteristics in emergencies (FORCE\u2010index). Hierarchical linear regression was used to examine associations between work environment factors and the two turnover outcomes.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Among 977 frontline HCWs (median age 45\u2009years, 75% women, median 16\u2009years of work experience), several work environment factors showed protective association with turnover intention. Across both outcomes, familiarity with colleagues and surroundings and social support from colleagues and immediate superiors were the most important protective factors, linked to fewer thoughts of quitting and a lower intention to seek a new job. For frequent thoughts of quitting, additional protective factors included better stress management, workload manageability, infection safety, and social safety. Younger age was a consistent risk factor for both outcomes, while working in the ICU and experiencing morally distressing situations were specifically associated with thoughts of quitting. Pandemic exposure variables were not significantly associated with either outcome.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Turnover intention among ICU HCWs at four Norwegian university hospitals during the fourth time point of the COVID\u201119 pandemic was associated with work environment factors. Work in the ICU, younger age, and morally distressing experiences were associated with frequent thoughts of quitting, whereas several work environment factors were protective. Familiarity and social support were also protective against actively looking for a new job, suggesting that strengthening these factors may be particularly important for reducing turnover intention and retaining HCWs in the ICU.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/aas.70296","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,8]],"date-time":"2026-07-08T06:58:45Z","timestamp":1783493925000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Turnover Intentions Among Intensive Care Healthcare Workers: Key Factors Influencing Decisions to Stay or Leave"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"70","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0006-2638-7495","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Anniken","family":"Maamoen","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Research and Development, Division of Emergencies and Critical Care Oslo University Hospital  Oslo Norway"},{"name":"Institute of Health and Society, Faculty of Medicine, University of Oslo  Oslo Norway"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7062-1011","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kristina","family":"Bondjers","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Norwegian Centre for Violence and Traumatic Stress Studies  Oslo Norway"},{"name":"National Centre for Disaster Psychiatry, Department of Medical Sciences Uppsala University  Uppsala Sweden"},{"name":"Uppsala University Hospital  Uppsala Sweden"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Anne K.","family":"Langerud","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Postoperative and Intensive Care, Division of Emergencies and Critical Care Oslo University Hospital  Oslo Norway"},{"name":"Department of Nursing and Health Promotion Faculty of Health Science, Oslo Metropolitan University  Oslo Norway"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Grete A.","family":"Dyb","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Norwegian Centre for Violence and Traumatic Stress Studies  Oslo Norway"},{"name":"Institute of Clinical Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, University of Oslo  Oslo Norway"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Synne \u00d8.","family":"Stensland","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Norwegian Centre for Violence and Traumatic Stress Studies  Oslo Norway"},{"name":"Department of Research and Innovation, Division of Clinical Neuroscience Oslo University Hospital  Oslo Norway"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5721-0154","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"John A.
