Today it becomes necessary for every organization to have full level of its employee commitment in order to have outstanding performance on long term basis.

Organizations are also increasing realizing that it is only with and through the commitment of their workforce that they can fully achieve and sustain improvement in business performance and succeed in market place.

In the light of the above analysis, the essence of employee commitment to the improvement of organizational performance should be explored in this work.
