    The study aims to examine the impact of job characteristics on the retention of the employees in the higher education sector of Thailand. Following the literature, the study examines the mediating role of employee commitment towards the organisation as a mediator. The objective of this study is to examine the impact of different job designs, including enlargement, rotation and enrichment, on employee retention. The mediation of employee commitment is predicted to lead an organisation towards the retention of an employee. The study has employed the SEM-PLS to analyse data collected from employees of higher education institutes in Thailand. A structural equation model was adopted with the purpose of analysing the structural association between the observed and the latent variables, as well as to estimate the structural model. Estimating the appropriate sample size is one of the important aspects of SEM-PLS. The findings of the study support the proposed hypotheses, and can therefore assist policymakers, researchers and academics in understanding issues related to the retention of higher education employees in Thailand.
