If we can solve the high turnover rate of prison guards, we can reduce the turnover behavior, reduce costs of training staff, avoid personnel leaving their job, causing a high burden for those who stay at their work creating a negative cycle. In view of these issues, this research sought to investigate the impacts of perceptions of salary, promotion, social status of occupational title on intent to turnover. This research was conducted with Taiwanese prison guards of the Agency of Corrections as research participants, using a survey questionnaire. A convenient sampling method was used to collect data. A total of 550 questionnaire copies were distributed to prison guards around Taiwan, out of which, 506 valid copies were returned. SPSS statistics software was used to obtain quantitative results, including description statistics, t tests, ANOVA, correlation analysis, and regression analysis to conduct sample testing. It is hoped that the results of this research can help improve future staff recruitment of the Agency of Corrections in addition to solving the current problem of staff turnover.
