Equity sensitivity is expressed as the degree of
sensitivity of the employees 'input-output ratio to be equal to other employees
in line with Adams's equality theory.. In this study, the relationship between
equity sensitivity, job satisfaction and turnover intention was investigated.
Food and beverage enterprises operating in Bishkek, the capital of Kyrgyzstan,
were selected as a sample. Factor analysis, correlation analysis and regression
analysis were performed. As a result of the analysis, a positive significant
correlation was found between the perception of equity sensitivity and material
job satisfaction. In addition, it was observed that there is a negative
correlation between job satisfaction and turnover intentions of employees.
