This study examined early voluntary turnover and job performance in a group of 78 private contract security officers. A preemployment inventory was administered but not used as part of the selection process. Subsequent measures of early voluntary turnover and job performance were analyzed with respect to the inventory scores. Analyses indicated a relationship between the number of days an individual remained on the job before quitting and scores on an inventory scale designed to assess the likelihood of early voluntary turnover. For a subset of this group, a suggestive relationship was also observed between supervisors' ratings of job performance and scores on inventory scales designed to measure emotional maturity and work performance free from disruptive use of substances and alcohol
