Abstract

In today's era of rapid development of the knowledge economy, the core of competition between enterprises is the competition for talent, especially knowledge-based employees. They hold the lifeblood of technological competitiveness, are the carrier of knowledge and the key driving force of enterprise development. Because of the distinctive autonomy and innovative characteristics of knowledge-based employees, the enterprise is more and more detailed performance appraisal and strict attendance, which brings them a lot of work pressure. Existing research has not reached a unanimous conclusion as to whether work pressure plays a facilitating or hindering role in knowledge-based employees' tendency to leave. The reason for this is mainly related to the nature of work pressure itself. This study takes knowledge-based employees in small and medium-sized enterprises as the research object, draws on the two-dimensional structure theory of pressure, and categorizes work pressure into challenging pressure and hindering pressure, in order to explore the impact of the two types of pressure on the tendency of knowledge-based employees to leave their jobs.
