Impact of inclusiveness on organizational commitment among employees of IT industry

Abstract

Organizations continue to be challenged by diversity in their workforce. Hence it becomes imperative to nurture an inclusive workplace where all employees can co-exist and thrive. The primary objective of the current study is to examine the relationship between different constructs of inclusiveness and the organizational commitment of employees. Their search for the study is based on the data collected from multiple IT organizations across major cities (Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, and Pune) of India. A structured questionnaire was distributed. Multiple regression analysis was applied on the primary data obtained from 160 respondents to interpret the impact on the organizational commitment by different constructs of inclusiveness. The results from the study reveal that different constructs of inclusiveness (supervisor role, relationship with co-workers, and organizational practices) have a significant effect on the organizational commitment of an employee. The study highlights the importance of creating a sense of acceptance among employees of an organization through inclusive work culture, which ultimately enhances the commitment level of employees towards their organization.
