Objectives

Early retirement occurs when one's job satisfaction suffers due to employment mismatch resulting from factors such as inadequate compensation.

These levels are highest among emergency physicians (EPs), and despite general improvements in their working conditions, early retirement continues to become more common in this population. The purpose of this study was to identify the factors influencing EPs intention to retire early and to develop a probability equation for its prediction.
