This study investigates the factors influencing quiet-quitting intention among Chinese university lecturers during the COVID-19 pandemic. Using a quantitative cross-sectional approach with 698 responses, the study examines the effects of work overload, perceived career development opportunities, perceived pay-for-performance, affective organizational commitment, and work conditions on job burnout, employee well-being, and quiet-quitting intention. Partial least squares structural equation modeling reveals significant relationships between these variables, moderated by psychological empowerment. The findings offer theoretical and practical implications for addressing the challenges faced by university lecturers during and after the pandemic.
