Abstract

The study aims to examine how employee engagement (EE) and affective commitment (AC) impact organisational citizenship behaviour (OCB) drawing on the attitudinal theory perspective. Furthermore, the paper explores how job satisfaction mediates the relationship between employee engagement, affective commitment, and OCB. In this study, a total of 418 samples were taken from leather industries in Vellore District using SPSS and Smart PLS version 3. We found that affective commitment directly impacts OCB whereas employee engagement has no significant impact on OCB. Apart from the direct effect, the study also shows that job satisfaction indirectly affects EE, AC, and OCB. However, there is a mediating impact on job satisfaction between EE, AC, and OCB. In this paper, the argument is based on whether employee engagement and affective commitment impact organisational citizenship behaviour (OCB). The author demonstrated the connection between EE, AC, and OCB with the mediating effect of job satisfaction as our main contribution.
