This study was conducted at DAWASCO HQ with the aim of accessing the impact of organizational culture on employees’ withdrawal intentions in public institutions in Tanzania. Various indicators such as feeling tired with the job responsibilities, feeling work boredom, feeling unwilling to work every day, departing from work before required time, inability to meet target, passive compliance, absenteeism and arriving at work beyond required time were used to test if employees intend to withdrawal from the job. The specific objectives of the study was to describe the organizational culture at DAWASCO, to examine the employee’s perception levels of withdraw intentions and to assess the extent to which selected withdraw intentions are associated with organizational culture. The questionnaire method was used to obtain information from 60 respondents. The findings were presented in tables and bar graphs so that they can easily be understood. The findings revealed that some organization culture such as the use of clock-in-clock-out system, attendance book, and provision of organization loans have significant impact to employees’ withdrawal intentions. The study recommends that, DAWASCO and other public institutions in Tanzania should try to overlook the organization behaviours that may forms culture which cause employees to withdrawal from their jobs.
