Abstract
Employees are assets for an organization and to keep them committed to their
workplace is a major challenge faced by many organizations. This study attempts
to examine the impact of perceived organizational support (POS) on dimensions
of organizational commitment among medical doctors working in healthcare
organizations in Lahore. The study also compares the level of POS and
organizational commitment between doctors working in public and private
sector. A questionnaire consisting of 32 items was employed as the survey
instrument. Data was collected from 160 respondents working in two private and
two public hospitals. Data was analyzed through various statistical techniques
such as, internal consistency reliability; correlation analysis; regression
analysis; and t-test. Results suggest that there is significant positive relationship
between POS and affective as well as normative commitment and insignificant
relationship between POS and continuance commitment. It is suggested that
management should take various measures to increase organizational support
among employees thereby increasing organizational commitment.
