Review Of The Theoretical Contributions On The Organizational Commitment: Do Attitudes Matter?”

Abstract

Organizational commitment is a job-related key attitude and, since the managerial point of view, its interest is based on its capacity to influence employees’ behavior. Frequently, a consistent commitment is correlated with low absenteeism, low turnover and, a good employee’s performance. But, at the present time, when the idea of an employee staying in the same organization for most of his career is becoming obsolete, when work instability is a fact….is still worthy to examine employees’ commitment to their organization? In this theoretical study, the sense of analyzing this topic currently, is discussed following a literature review of theoretical and empirical updated contributions.”
