Abstract

The present study investigates the impact that Job Satisfaction (JS) has on the Organizational Commitment (OC) level of industrial workers and also finds out whether Job Involvement (JI) moderates the relationship between JS and OC. The study has been conducted on 600 employees belonging to different departments of Diesel Locomotive Works (DLW), which is one of the public sector giants of India. Relationship between JS and OC has been established with the help of a 2 × 2 factorial design, and moderation effect of JI on the relationship between JS and OC has been checked with the help of hierarchical multiple regression analysis. The results of the investigation have come out with the findings that OC is positively related to JS. Also, JI does moderate the relationship between JS and OC but in a negative way, and the impact has been found to be weak.
