The Fitting Scale, Social Undermining Scale, Perceived Organizational Support Scale and Supportive Communication Scale were used in the investigation. \n \n \nResults \nThe score of person-organization fit was (32.20±5.17). The score of person-job fit was (55.14±8.24), with the lowest score of supply-value fit subscale (2.58±0.48). The score of perceived organizational support, social undermining and supportive communication were (45.36±9.64), (46.27±7.48) and (68.47±11.25) respectively. Perceived organizational support, social undermining, contract nurses, and educational level could influence person- organization fit, which could explain 59.3% of the total variation. Working time, supportive communication and perceived organizational support could influence person- job fit, which could explain 47.6% of the total variation. \n \n \nConclusions \nNursing managers should improve the core value system of human resources management and organizational culture construction, enhance organizational support, construct humanities environment and coping strategy of undermining, provide the relevant training of interpersonal communication, and increase their organizational and job fitting. \n \n \nKey words: \nIntensive care units;\xa0Nurses;\xa0Fitting;\xa0Perceived organizational support;\xa0Social undermining;\xa0Supportive communication
