For all categories the independent variable was Employee Empowerment and the dependent
variable was Employee’s Commitment with the organization.
7.21 Research findings for Hypothesis 2:
H2 was accepted at significance level of 0.000 (p value < 0.001). 56.4% of the variations in the
Employee Commitment were due to the Employee Empowerment. There was a positive
relationship between Employee Empowerment and Employee Commitment as with an increase
of one unit in the Employee Empowerment there was 0.896 unit increases in the Employee
Commitment to the organization.
A strong and positive relation between Employee Empowerment and commitment with the
organization was observed under the above mentioned categories also. The empirical finding for
the gender wise analysis showed that Empowerment had stronger impact on commitment of
female employees with the organization as compared to the commitment of male employees.
Female employees were found more committed with their organizations in the presence of
Empowerment as compared to male employees. In the comparison of types of the organizations,
it was found that the employees in Private and Public organizations were found more interested
in having empowerment to be committed with their organizations as compared to the employees
working in Gov. and semi Gov. Organizations. Similarly the Top level management was found
more towards having empowerment so that they can be committed with their organizations as
compared to the middle level management and the officers and it was also found that in the
absence of Empowerment, the Top level Management showed no commitment with the
organization.
