Abstract

          The research entitled “Transfer and Resignation Decisions of Personnel in the Forest Resource Management Office 5 (Saraburi)” aimed to study 1) the level of motivational factors influencing personnel decisions to transfer and resign, 2) the level of decision-making in transferring and resigning, and 3) factors affecting these decisions. This was a survey research using a sample of 150 individuals. Data was collected using a questionnaire and analyzed via multiple regression analysis (MRA). The results showed that: 1) Respondents rated the motivational factors influencing transfer and resignation decisions as high as: relationships with colleagues, job responsibilities, supervisors and managers, career advancement, and salary and compensation; and the work environment as moderate. 2) Personnel had a moderate level of decision-making in transferring, while the average level of decision-making in resigning was low. Furthermore, 3) The work environment was the primary factor influencing transfer decisions; other factors were not considered, and respondents had not yet decided to resign due to any of the studied motivational factors.
