Abstract

Employee commitment is an important issue for both practitioners and academicians. This paper focuses on exploring the relationships among organizational support, affective commitment and normative commitment, based on data from the hospitality industry of China. The results indicate that affective commitment had significant positive effect on normative commitment. Among the three dimensions of organizational support, managerial support had the greatest influence on employee commitment, compared with co-worker relationship and role ambiguity. Theoretical discussions and practical implications have also been provided. © 2008 IEEE.
