Employee Workplace Behaviors and Attitudes : Investigation Following a Period of High Turnover and Budget Cuts

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to examine the relationship between employee workplace attitudes and behaviors by further investigating the role of organizational commitment and job satisfaction on job performance. This study is especially interesting because it follows a period of high turnover and budget cuts in a university setting, which addresses research gaps. Data was collected from approximately 30 participants within a university college, in a one-step anonymous survey process. Participants include both full time and part time faculty and staff within a university college. The results of our study were analyzed through correlational analyses. Implications for both theory and practice as well as study limitations will be discussed.
