Abstract This study explores the crucial role of the work environment and organisational support in sustainable employee retention among IT professionals in the southern districts of Tamil Nadu. The study involves the collection and analysis of both primary and secondary data. A convenience sampling method was employed to select a sample of 150 employees from the Information Technology sector across various locations within the southern districts of Tamil Nadu. Statistical analysis like paired t-tests, revealed that improvements in physical workplace conditions, work-life balance, effective communication, and supportive managerial practices lead to significantly higher retention rates. The role of organisational support in improving employee retention was examined using the weighted average ranking method. It is inferred that career growth, recognition of employee contributions, and supervisory support were identified as the top organisational support factors, whereas promotion policies were perceived as needing improvement. The findings emphasize the importance of targeted HR strategies focused on professional development, recognition, and work environment enhancement to reduce attrition and build a stable, engaged IT workforce in the emerging regions of the southern districts of Tamil Nadu.
