A Study to Assess Correlation and Gender Differences in Role Conflict, Job Satisfaction and Organization Commitment Among Corporate Employees

This study investigated the relationship between role conflict, organizational commitment, and job satisfaction while exploring significant gender differences within these dynamics among corporate employees. A sample of 140 individuals, comprising 70 males and 70 females, was selected, focusing on employed individuals, excluding the self-employed. The study utilized convenience sampling and collected demographic information, including age, sex, organization type, and length of employment. Data collection occurred utilizing the Shortened Organizational Commitment Questionnaire, Role Conflict Questionnaire, and The Generic Job Satisfaction Scale. Statistical analysis included Spearman correlation, and Mann-Whitney U tests. Results showed no significant gender differences in role conflict, organizational commitment, or job satisfaction. Moreover, no significant correlation was found between role conflict and job satisfaction or organizational commitment. On the other hand, a significant beneficial correlation between organizational commitment and job satisfaction was found.  Limitations included sampling bias, small sample size, and reliance on self-report measures. Despite limitations, the study underscores the importance of looking beyond gender to address work-related outcomes, suggesting strategies to mitigate role conflict and enhance organizational commitment and job satisfaction for improved employee well-being and organizational performance.
