Abstract:

Commitment is the energy which impels the employees towards organizational objectives. Hence, organizations have to adapt competitive policies and practices which improve motivation and job satisfaction and enhance employee commitment. The present study aims at analyzing the impact of demographic variables (age, gender, marital status, cadre, annual income, experience, and social category) on Organizational Commitment of select bank employees. 533 responses were collected from managerial and non-managerial cadre of select bank employees through judgmental sampling technique. The dimensions of Organizational Commitment (affective commitment, normative commitment, and continuance commitment) were assessed using a standard scale developed by Allen and Meyer (1999). The research was analyzed using statistical instruments like an independent sample t-test, one-way ANOVA and Chi-Square test. The findings revealed that employees differ in Organizational Commitment on the basis of demographic variables like age, marital status, cadre, annual income and experience while gender, qualification and social category has no impact on the organizational commitment of the respondents.
