Abstract
Organizational commitment is the least studied variable among police workforce. While majority of studies on commitment used Meyer and Allen’s (1997) threedimensional model, this study used Gillet and Vandenberghe’s (2014) fourdimensional model. Data from 327 police workforce were collected using questionnaire-based survey. The study applied structural equation modeling and noted affective, normative and perceived sacrifices commitment as partial mediators between transformational leadership, leader-member exchange and work engagement. Whereas, few alternative commitment was found to fully mediate the same association. This study is first of its kind to examine the mediating role of four-dimensional organizational commitment between leadership and work engagement.
