Abstract

This study probes and tests the impacts of organizational commitment (OC) and organizational citizenship behaviour (OCB) among public employees in the Asian context. Using a 2010 Korean Central Government Survey of forty Korean central government agencies (totalling 1,122 respondents), an antecedent- outcome model is developed which analyses how different types of interpersonal and organizational characteristics affect OC and OCB using hierarchical and multi-level ordering statistical techniques. The research finds that certain predictors, such as trust in colleagues (TC), formalized structures, and group culture, play significant roles in fostering OC and OCB among employees. In conclusion, suggestions are made for further research, and practical implications for Asian civil servants are considered.
