Abstract

Career development is the most effective tool for organizations through which they develop their employee's career to make them more productive on workplace. The study examines the relationship between career development practices and three types of organizational commitment namely affective commitment, continuance commitment, and normative commitment in the telecom sector of Pakistan. Six hypotheses were developed and tested through tests including regression, correlation and descriptive statistics. Data have been collected from 100 employees of 5 companies of telecom sector of Pakistan. Primary and secondary data are used to collect information for this research. Questionnaire is used in this research togather information from employees. Analysis shows that career development practices have positive impact on three types of organizational commitment. The leading limitation of this research is the number of sample N=100. IN spite this research is effectively conducted, the sample size is too small as population is large, due to the small sample size the out come of research is not exactly accurate. With a bigger sample size,there will be more accurate and reliable results.
