ABSTRACT
This study examined the impact of job type and experience on job commitment among bank managers in Dhaka City. The Organizational Commitment Scale (Mowday, Steers, & Porter, 1979) was used to measure commitment among 152 bank managers in a cross-sectional study. One-way ANOVA results showed that job type (F=114.340, p<.01) and job experience (F=6.040, p<.01) significantly influenced commitment. Additionally, regression analysis showed that the job type and experience of bank managers were minor but significant predictors, accounting for 13.6% (R2=.136, p=.001) and 37.6% (R2=.376, p=.001) of the variance in job commitment scores, respectively. The main emphasis of this study was the organizational commitment of bank managers. This concept has been thoroughly studied in numerous academic contexts, but no research has been done in Bangladeshi banking organizations. This study fills that gap by identifying important experiential and structural indicators of commitment in a local context.
