Abstract: | This study examines how both the actual people-management system and the perceived system influence employees' commitment, and how this in turn inflects employee and organizational results. Multilevel analyses of a sample of 732 employees from 26 Spanish small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) supported a model in which employees' commitment mediates between the actual system and unit-level absenteeism, which again has an effect on productivity. Results also showed the importance of the perceived system in trying to understand the true effect of the actual system on employees' commitment to the organization. |
