Abstract

Abstract: Effectiveness of administrative reform highly depends on quality and competency of cadres and civil servants. This study examined the factors affecting organizational commitment of cadres and civil servants at the People's Committees of wards in District 12 Ho Chi Minh City. Regression analysis taken on survey data of 407 cadres and civil servants indicated the 06 factors affecting the commitment as: 1) colleague relationship, 2) training and development, 3) leader relationship, 4) recognition and reward, 5) income, and 6) working environment and workspace; particularly, colleague relationship has the greatest effect while income has the nearly least effect on organizational commitment. This outcome quite matches both academic and practical perspectives. Some managerial implications are correspondingly proposed to increase the organizational commitment of cadres and civil servants at the People's Committees.
