EFFECT OF WORKPLACE FLEXIBILITY ON EMPLOYEES' COMMITMENT IN AN ORGANIZATION

This study investigates the effect of workplace flexibility on employees’ commitment in an organization. The research aims to determine how flexible work arrangements—such as remote work options, flexible scheduling, job sharing, and telecommuting—impact employees’ levels of affective, continuance, and normative commitment. The study adopts a descriptive research design and utilizes both primary and secondary data sources. Data were collected through structured questionnaires administered to employees across different departments within the organization. Statistical tools such as correlation and regression analyses were employed to test the hypotheses. The findings reveal that workplace flexibility has a significant positive effect on employee commitment, as it enhances job satisfaction, reduces stress, and fosters a better work-life balance. Employees who experience flexibility in their work arrangements are more likely to exhibit loyalty, increased productivity, and a stronger emotional attachment to the organization. The study concludes that adopting flexible work policies can serve as an effective strategy for improving employee commitment and overall organizational performance. It recommends that management should institutionalize flexible work practices and continuously review them to align with changing employee and organizational needs.
