Perceived Organizational Culture, Co-worker Support, Work Performance, and Employee Demographics as Correlates of Organizational Commitment

This study investigates the perceived organizational culture, co-worker support, work performance, and employee demographics as correlates of organizational commitment within Nigeria's manufacturing industry. The current sample was taken from ten manufacturing organizations in Oyo and Lagos States of Nigeria. Data retrieved were analyzed and presented in tables. Nevertheless, this paper applied a cross-sectional survey approach, of which the survey forms were randomly disseminated. However, out of 500 surveys, 476 were suitable for investigation and analyzed with Statistical Packages for Social Sciences (SPSS vs. 27). The objectives of this paper were to find out if there are correlations between perceived organizational support, co-worker support, work performance, employee demographics, and organizational commitment and to determine how organizational commitment can be enhanced and made consistent within Nigeria's manufacturing sector. The present results established a strong and significant positive correlation between perceived organizational culture, co-worker support, work performance, employee demographics, and organizational commitment within Nigeria's manufacturing industry. Therefore, the management of manufacturing industries should ensure a good and consistent strategy that makes employees committed to organizational culture, encourage support among co-workers and increase better work performances.
