Abstract
This study was carried out as part
of a larger study in a public sector
organization with an all India
presence. The study explored
the influence of induction age,
training duration and job permanence
of organizational commitment
and job satisfaction among
220 participants from a large
public sector organization who
rated 18 items commitment scale
developed by Meyer & Allen and
15 items self-developed job satisfaction
scale. Results found that
employees inducted at a younger
age and trained by the organization
for a longer duration are
more committed to the organization
normatively. Furthermore,
permanent employees were found
to be more committed normatively
and also exhibited higher job
satisfaction as compared to contract
employees.
