The Relationship

The aim of this study is to examine the mediating effect of organizational commitment on the relationship between work-life balance and intention to leave. The study population consists of (800) working women in King Abdullah University Hospital (KAUH). To collect the primary data a questionnaire survey was distributed to (200) working women, from them (144) questionnaires were returned. The study used linear regression and path analyses to test hypotheses. The study findings revealed that; there is a significant relationship between work-life balance and intention to leave, there is a significant relationship between work-life balance and (affective, continuance and normative) commitment, but not with continuous commitment, there is a significant relationship between (affective, continuance and normative) commitment and intention to leave. Finally, affective commitment fully mediates the relationship between work-life balance and intention to leave, while normative commitment partially mediates the relation. In light of these findings, the study recommends; adoption of the work-life balance program in Jordanian hospitals to improve the commitment of working women, and encourages Jordanian organizations to enhance the participation of employee in decision making and locus of control to improve organizational commitment.

376 ügyfélszolgálati dolgozó bevonásával végzett kérdőíves vizsgálatukban a szerzők arra keresték a választ, hogy a szervezeti elkötelezettség profilok hogyan függnek össze a munkahelyi elégedettséggel, a kilépési szándékkal és a munka-család viszonyrendszerre vonatkozó változókkal (munka-család konfliktus, munkacsalád egyensúly, munka-család gazdagítás). Nyolc különböző profilt találtak, amelyek elemzéséből kiderült: az elkötelezettség-komponensek közül az érzelmi elkötelezettségnek kitüntetett szerepe van a kedvező következményeket tekintve, továbbá az elkötelezettségkomponensek együttes hatása szinergikus lehet. ________ In their research that was based on the answers of 376 customer service employees to a questionnaire survey, the authors are looking at the relationship between the organizational commitment profiles and work satisfaction, intention to leave the organization and various subconcepts of work life balance (work-family conflict, work-family balance and work-family enrichment). They have found 8 different profiles, the analysis of which revealed the central role of the affective component regarding the positive outcomes of the above mentioned variables as well as the synergic relations among the different components of organizational commitment.
