Abstract: 
The present research attempts to examine accountants’ job satisfaction focusing on specific
job and organizational related factors, such as organizational and professional commitment,
work motivation and job characteristics, which seem to affect job satisfaction and intention to
leave (turnover).
A structured questionnaire has been used to collect data from 213 accountants working for
different organisations located in the region of East Macedonia, Greece. The proposed
model has been tested using the structural equation modelling.
The analysis of the model confirms the majority of the initial hypotheses. These results
provide strong evidence and highlight the need for specific action from accounting
office/department managers to improve working conditions and strengthen employees
commitment and, thus, to enhance their performance and weaken their turnover intention.
