Abstract

Organisational citizenship behaviour (OCB) of teachers has been found essential for the effective functioning of schools, and teachers' propensity to perform OCB is determined by various individual and organisational characteristics. The present study investigates work interference with family (WIF) and self-efficacy as independent variables, and OCB as dependent variable, while examining the moderating effect of perceived organisational support (POS) on the WIF-OCB relationship. The study model was examined in structural equation modelling using AMOS. Data were collected using self-report questionnaires from 435 teachers in the secondary schools in Sri Lanka. The results revealed that teachers' OCB was not affected by their WIF, and POS had no moderating effect on WIF-OCB relationship. A significant positive relationship was found between teachers' self-efficacy and their OCB. The present study offers practical implications and recommendations for classroom management, school leadership, and policy decisions, and contributes to the growing empirical research on teacher OCB.
