Introduction The world today is a world of organizations and human resources are considered to be the most important sources of the organization. Even with the advancement of organizations and their transformation into a bunch of hardware, the role of man as a vital and strategic factor in the survival of the organization is still evident (Shafie & Engashte, 2017). For this reason, in a competitive situation and in an environment where successive changes and innovation are its main features, only organizations that have succeeded in acquiring a grasp of the strategic role of their human resources and having skilled human resources, knowledge Centered, and capable (Tahmasebi et al., 2012). In this regard, the key role of the manpower has been created; HR managers in each organization systematically design processes for maintaining these forces and, with a great attitude, examine the arrival and departure of people, the consequences and costs of losing staff, and for this reason, manpower maintenance will be more important than hiring. In other words, even if the recruiting, selection, appointment and improvement operations are to be done in a desirable manner without paying attention to the maintenance, the results of the management's actions will not be significant (Eskandari and Abedi, 2009). Currently, higher education institutions, especially universities, play a major role in the social, economic, cultural, and political development of each country. Considering the intensive competition of these institutions in different fields and the existence of problems in maintaining human resources in this area, attention to the issue of keeping in universities is necessary. Nevertheless, few studies have been carried out in this regard and somehow the problem of keeping employees in the higher education system of the country, especially medical universities, has been neglected. For this purpose, the purpose of this research is to investigate the proponents of manpower maintenance in Birjand University of Medical Sciences. Case study The statistical population of the study consisted of all the staff of Birjand University of Medical Sciences in 230 people. Based on Cochran's formula, 143 people were selected through a sampling method. Materials and Methods The present study is a descriptive-survey method in terms of purpose, applied, and method. The main instrument for collecting information was two researcher-made questionnaires distributed amongst sample members. In order to evaluate the validity of the questionnaires and the dimensions of the questionnaires, several selected experts were selected from the faculty members of the university, and proposed reforms were carried out by them. To assess the reliability of the questionnaires, a prototype including 30 pre-test questionnaires was used. The reliability coefficient was calculated using the Cronbach's alpha for the whole questionnaires of 0.98 and 0.95. This reliability indicates the reliability of the research tools. For analyzing the obtained data, descriptive statistics (mean and percentage of frequency) and inferential statistics (structural equation modeling, single variable t test, and Friedman test) were used with SPSS 23 and Smart PLS 3 software.
