Influence Of Job Embeddedness on Organizational Citizenship Behaviour in Jordanian Ministries Using Pls-Sem Approach

Abstract

Government agencies need Employers to do more than job descriptions or without pay to take good extra roles. Not all or just some Employers, however, choose to do or Job an extra position without any salary. Thus, if the employees do not want to self-give for doing the good behaviour, it becomes an issue and detriment, it may interrupt the organisation to function well. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the impact of job embeddedness in Jordanian ministries on the behaviour of organisational citizenship. This research also used questionnaires to obtain data from the ministries' employees. To evaluate if there is a relationship between the independent and dependent variables, a Partial Least Square Reflective Structural Equation Model was used. 326 is valid for the study of the 400 questionnaires administered. Link to organisation, link to community, fit to organisation, fit to community, organisational sacrifice, and community sacrifice were the job embeddedness variables used in this study. Additionally, as a determinant of the behaviour of organisational citizenship, altruism, conscientiousness and loyalty were used. In addition, the findings showed that there is a significant positive relationship between job embeddedness and organisational citizenship behaviour. The findings of the study show that managers should be mindful that employees who run the risk of losing their jobs may be likely to carry out organisational behaviour. Through its empirical analysis of the role of job embeddedness as factors influencing the behaviour of organisational citizenship, this study therefore contributes to the literature.
