This research is done with an intention to identify the problem of employees working in the private sector with respect to job satisfaction and job embeddedness as job-hopping was very common in the private sector. To determine job satisfaction and job embeddedness the independent variables considered for the study were job itself, working conditions, relations, job security, salary, policies and procedure, supervision and relations. The gap in these independent variables was identified in this research to estimate their job satisfaction levels. It was proved that the gap in the job, working conditions, job security, policies and procedure and salary determined the fit variable. Whereas the gap in the supervision and relation variables determine the link variable of the study. It is proved here that the respondents gave more importance to link variable over and above fit variable. In this research, a model is developed called as retention model where it is proved that job satisfaction and job embeddedness positively influence retention intentions of the employees.
