Teacher Turnover and the Quality of Worklife in Schools: An Empirical Study.
Seyfarth, John T.; Bost, William A.
Journal of Research and Development in Education, v20 n1 p1-6 Fall 1986

Districts with higher pay and more fringe benefits had low levels of turnover; long commuting distance and old, uncomfortable buildings were related to high turnover. Implications are discussed.
