Abstract
The purpose of this study was to explore the mediating role of
organizational commitment in the relationship of corporate ethical
values and organizational citizenship behavior (OCB). Two
dimensions, altruism and sportsmanship of OCB were taken in to
consideration. Corporate Ethical Value Scale (Hunt, Wood, &
Chonko, 1989) was used to measure the ethical values of employees.
Organizational Commitment Scale was adopted from Hunt et al.
(1989) for measurement of organizational commitment in employees
and a six-item scale developed by Baker, Hunt, and Andrews (2006)
was used to measure altruism and sportsmanship. Data were
collected from five organizations including two multinational banks
and three head offices of telecom companies. The proposed model
was tested using a sample of 233 respondents. Structural Equation
Modeling was used for data analysis. Results indicated that the
relationship of corporate ethical values with OCB was partially
mediated by organizational commitment of employees. These
findings suggest that existence of corporate ethical climate not only
enhance organizational commitment of employees toward their
organization, but also help in enhancing employees’ workplace
experiences.
