Abstract
AbstractThis study empirically investigates the impact of Performance Work Practices (PWPs) on employee outcomes, with a focus on the mediating role of organizational commitment. Using a cross-sectional survey design, data were collected from 264 professionals across various industries in Hyderabad, India. The research examined the relationships between four key PWPstraining and development, performance appraisal, employee involvement, and reward systemsand critical employee outcomes: job satisfaction, motivation, and productivity. Results from structural equation modeling and regression analyses revealed that PWPs have significant positive direct effects on all three employee outcomes. Furthermore, organizational commitment was found to partially mediate these relationships, indicating that PWPs enhance employee outcomes both directly and indirectly by fostering stronger psychological attachment to the organization. The findings provide valuable insights for organizations seeking to optimize their human resource management systems, suggesting that strategic implementation of PWPs can effectively enhance both employee well-being and organizational performance through the development of organizational commitment.Keywords: Performance Work Practices, Organizational Commitment, Job Satisfaction, Employee Motivation, Employee Productivity, Human Resource Management, High-Performance Work Systems
