What the paper says

This study investigates how perceptions of ability-motivation-opportunity (AMO) enhancing high-performance work systems (HPWS) affect turnover intentions among Fijian employees in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). The findings reveal that a positive perception of AMO-enhancing HPWS leads to decreased turnover intentions, with this relationship mediated by affective commitment. Notably, the study finds that ability-enhancing HPWS reduce turnover intentions more than motivation or opportunity-enhancing HPWS, which challenges some previous research. This study contributes to the human resource management literature by examining the concept of AMO “bundles”, employee perceptions, and the context of SMEs in Fiji’s developing economy.
