Human Resource literature frames turnover as a mismatch between organizations and their employees. However, there has been a lack of interest in how institutional factors influence turnover. This study examined the effect of generalized trust on social enterprise and social systems on turnover and retention through the response of 362 social enterprise workers who participated in the 2018 social value survey. The results of the study showed that trust in the social enterprise system and social system reduced the intention to leave and increased the intention to stay. On the other hand, the greater the perception of the effectiveness of the government that overlaps the role of social problem-solving, the higher the intention to leave. This paper contributes to the literature by showing that institution-level trusts may prompt social entrepreneurs not just to leave the firm but to leave the field of social entrepreneurship.
