Abstract

The pandemic has left us a legacy of “The Great Resignation,” i.e., an aberrant workforce withdrawal. Employees’ commitment and loyalty have undergone a transformative shift in recent years. Organizations are now focusing on building employee resilience through engagement. Organizations need to develop fresh approaches to understand the factors of employee withdrawal behaviour (EWB). Through a systematic review methodology using a bibliographic database over the past 30 years time, the present study seeks to provide a clear understanding of the trends in EWB by identifying its dynamics and suggesting future research directions. We reviewed 400 documents collected from the Scopus database. A bibliometric study was conducted on 367 articles from 1992 to 2022 using a VOS viewer. This paper provides insights about publication productivity over the years, productive countries, journals, authors, cited reports, keywords, and cluster analysis. The findings of this research paper give a roadmap for further study in this domain. This article adds value to an organizational study by focusing on predictors of employee withdrawal behaviour, identified through scientific bibliometric analysis. Research on employee withdrawal behaviour across different countries is shown in this article. Collaboration among authors from other countries will be impactful since such collaborations are lacking.
