Description
Summary:The research on organizational, career and union commitment has been requiring the analysis of how the worker simultaneously structures his or her commitments towards these three foci. After identifying eight commitment patterns in a sample of 1,029 workers from twenty Brazilian organizations, this study analyses the distribution of those patterns in four organizational contexts. These contexts were differentiated according to the level and type of organizational innovation which had been implemented as a demand from economic and technological processes. The results demonstrate that the classic bureaucratic organization is significantly different from the other innovative organizations: it includes more low organizational commitment patterns.
