Description: Background: The retention of volunteers working in the humanitarian sector is a
problem but especially among medical doctors. Several studies have been carried out in
order to investigate the reasons of turnover among expatriates. However no studies in
the humanitarian field have investigated if there is a relationship between factors known
at the time of recruitment and turnover. This study was undertaken among medical
doctors within ‘Médecins sans Frontières’ (MSF)-Austria to investigate whether there is
a relationship between factors known at time of selection and turnover.
