Does corporatisation improve organisational commitment? Evidence from public hospitals in Indonesia
研究印度尼西亚东爪哇54家公立医院公司化对员工组织承诺的影响,发现公司化时间越长、医院规模越大,员工承诺越高,激励措施有积极作用,但培训和资源可用性无显著影响。
This study aims to investigate the consequences of corporatisation on organisational commitment and to explain the relationship between work values, job satisfaction and organisational commitment. The research was carried out in 54 public hospitals in East Java, Indonesia, applying a multilevel structural equation model to survey data on 1282 workers in those hospitals. Analysis suggests that the longer a hospital has been corporatised, the greater the organisational commitment of its employees. Incentives have positive and substantive association with organisational commitment, while training and resource availability do not. We found that employees in larger hospitals are more committed than those in smaller hospitals and that work values and job satisfaction have a positive and significant relationship with organisational commitment. Our findings shed light on the debate on corporatisation as a lever for improving organisational commitment in public hospitals in developing countries.
