The Effect Of Loneliness In The Workplace On Organizational Commitment
Özet
The direct effects of loneliness in the workplace on employees' organizational commitment were investigated in the study. Within this scope, the three-dimensional concept of organizational commitment and the two-dimensional concept of workplace loneliness were evaluated in the five-star hotel establishments in Didim district. In this sense, some 156 questionnaires were obtained. As a result of correlation and regression analyses, it was determined that loneliness in the workplace negatively affected organizational commitment. When both concepts were considered in terms of dimensions, it was established that only social companionship negatively affected affective and continuance commitment. On the other hand, the effects of employees with emotional deprivation in the workplace on organizational commitment and affective and continuance commitment were insignificant. (C) 2014 The Authors.
