The purpose of this study is to examine whether work-family conflict has a mediating role and leader-member exchange has a moderating role in the effect of job stress experienced by seafarers, who are important actors of maritime transportation, on their turnover intentions. The data collected with the questionnaire technique were analyzed using Model 5, Bootstrap technique 5000 sample option and AMOS.22 package program in the Process macro (v3.4) plug-in developed by Hayes (2019) in SPSS (v22) program. Considering the critical role that seafarers play in the success of shipping companies and the financial losses of personnel turnover, it is important to examine the factors that cause seafarers to leave their jobs and the relationships between these factors. The analyses showed that the mediating role of work-family conflict and the moderating role of leader-member exchange were significant in the effect of job stress on turnover intentions of seafarers. It is thought that this study will make significant contributions to the literature since it is one of the few studies addressing turnover intention among seafarers and it is the first study to address the relationship between the research variables holistically.
