FEDERASYON ÇALIŞANLARININ ÖRGÜTSEL BAĞLILIK DÜZEYLERİ

This paper deals with the levels of organizational commitment for general secretaries, sport experts and civil servants working in sport federations. 183 persons are included in the research. Data for the research have been collected through “Three Dimensional Organizational Commitment Scale” developed by Meyer, Allen and Smith (1993). In this paper, organizational commitment is examined in three different dimensions as emotional commitment, continuance commitment and normative commitment, and also the levels of commitment for federation employees to their organizations are determined. Moreoever, this paper analyzes whether organizational commitment differs by federation employees’ genders, duties, ages, educational background and working years in organization. In consequence of statistical analysis, federation employees have more emotional commitment at most. As some differences are found in gender, educational background variables and organizational commitment levels, no significant difference is found in variables of duty, age and working periods in organization. Key Words: Organizational Commitment, Emotional Commitment, Normative Commitment.
