The Effects of Organisational Culture and Stress on Organisational Employee Commitment
研究了尼日利亚国家考试委员会测试开发部的组织文化、工作压力与员工承诺之间的关系，发现层级文化不支持员工、工作超负荷且奖励系统不佳，三者关系显著。
The aim of this study is to expand the horizon and boundary of knowledge and understanding of the workplace stress by investigating the effects of organisational culture and stress on employee commitment in the workplace. The attempt is to close the gap between organisational culture, workplace stress and employee commitment. Although the concepts of culture and stress have been well researched but few studies have provided detailed insight into the interplay between the concepts of organisational culture, workplace stress and commitment. This study therefore examined this interplay within the Test Development Division of the National Examination Council (NECO), Lagos, Nigeria. The instruments used to gather data from the staff of the department that make up Division was questionnaire survey. The results show that the departments have hierarchical culture that is unsupportive and that the staff of the departments have too much work to do with less time for the accomplishment. The assessment of employee commitment revealed that the employees are not pleased with the reward system of the departments. The findings also show that the relationship among organisational culture, stress and commitment are significant. The study suggests that there is need to change the culture orientation of the departments, reduce the stress levels of the employees and improve the organisational commitment of the employees.
