ABSTRACT
This research on effect of employees’ commitment on organizational productivity was carried out in Ambrose Alli University (AAU), Ekpoma, Edo state, Nigeria. The aim of the study was to examine the factors that determine employee’s commitment to their job, the study also aims at finding out the relationship between motivation and employee’s commitment and the impact it has on job performance and organizational productivity. In order to achieve the objectives, three hypotheses were formulated and were tested using the chi square. The sample population was drawn from a cross section of the university’s (AAU) staffs, comprising both junior and senior academic staffs. The questionnaire was used to elicit information, and these relevant data were collated and analyzed in later part of the work. The findings from the study show that there is a significant relationship between job satisfaction and employees commitment. The second hypothesis was tested using the chi square, and the result showed that there is a significant relationship between motivation of employees and their level of commitment to work. Finally, the last hypothesis which sought to find relationship between commitment and overall employee and organizational productivity was confirmed. However, suggestions were made as to improving employee’s commitment especially in tertiary institutions amongst which are: the need to improve on workers salary, disciplining the staffs as way of ensuring sanity and effective learning among the students and many others. These suggestions if strictly adhered to will not only enhance learning, but as well raise the commitment of staffs and consequently increasing productivity in the university.
