Telecom Employee Time Management Disposition, Work - Family Conflict And The Relationship Between Organizational Commitment

This thesis investigated in313employees from a branch of China Telecom, using the Time Management Disposition Scale, Work-Family Conflict Scale and The Questionnaire of Chinese Employee’s Organizational Commitment as tools. The research used LISREL8.7and SPSS19.0to analyze the status of time management disposition, work-family conflict and organizational commitment, and the differences among demographic variables as well. It also discussed the relationships among these three variables. The findings were as follows:(1) Employees’ time management disposition was at a high level. The perceived control was the highest, and the ability of goals setting and priorities was at a relatively low level. There was significant difference with the function of gender, education background, job grade, support for the elderly, daily work time and commuter time.(2) More than half of the employees’ work-family conflict was at middle level. Work-interference-family (WIF) was higher than Family-interference-work (FIW). There was significant difference with the function of gender, education background, commuter time, position, daily work time, monthly income and support for the elderly.(3) The employees’ organizational commitment was at a high level, among which the affective commitment was the highest and the opportunity commitment was the lowest. There was significant difference with the function of gender, age, education background, job grade, years of working, monthly income and marital status. The interaction effect of years of work and position was significantly different in economic commitment.(4) Time management disposition was significantly related to organizational commitment. It had a negative correlation with FIW, but not significantly related to WIF. Organizational commitment had a positive correlation with FIW, but not significantly related to WIF.(5) Time management disposition had significantly predictive effect on organizational commitment. It can significantly negatively predict family-interference-work as well. In addition, time management disposition and FIW had distinctly predictive effect on organizational commitment. FIW can not significantly predict organizational commitment.(6) FIW partially mediated the influences between time management disposition and organizational commitment.
