Abstract

After the advent of LPG policy in the 1990s, the functioning of the organization has seen a dramatic shift that enforced change in organizational policies and strategies driving towards increasing competition and technological up-gradation (Hampel and Martinsons, 2009). It pertains to the introduction of advanced technologies, mergers, product quality maintenance, expansion of the existing businesses, and enhancing employee satisfaction along with innovations, new leadership and management approach. Employees are the key to the success of any organization in this highly competitive environment. This is achieved by high employee’s commitment rates. However, most of the companies are experiencing retention challenges where the procurement of competent and dedicated professionals is much more critical. Therefore, the identification of the relationship between actual job behavior of employees and its change with different behavioral aspects of employees such as personality, perception, and attitude is significant. The current study is thereby directed towards identifying the work attitude of employees that plays a pertinent role in deriving their commitment for the organization.
