Abstract

Purpose This study aims to examine the mediating role of employee commitment between the quality of work-life (QWL) and job performance among the faculty of technical institutions established in the province of Punjab (India). Design/methodology/approach The data collected from 434 faculty members with a response rate of 72% is analyzed and the mediation effect of employee commitment between the QWL and job performance of the faculty is modeled through partial least square-structural equation modeling. Findings The results indicate that employee commitment partially mediates between QWL and job performance. To strengthen the result, mediation of employee commitment is also tested for each dimension of the QWL with job performance. All the factors of QWL also supported a partial mediation effect. Practical implications The findings of the study may help the policymakers to understand, frame and implement appropriate policies for improving the work-life quality and commitment among the faculty. This may further assist in augmenting the overall performance of the faculty amidst a crisis in the sector. Originality/value The study highlights the role of employee commitment as a mediator between the QWL and job performance of the faculty in the technical education sector which is one of its kind and possibly not yet explored. Besides, the study proposes some measures in improving the work-life quality and job performance of the faculty.

员工承诺在教师工作生活质量与工作绩效之间的中介作用

目的本研究旨在检验员工承诺在印度旁遮普邦科技院校教师工作生活质量（QWL）和工作绩效之间的中介作用并采用偏最小二乘结构方程模型对教师的工作绩效进行建模。研究结果表明，员工承诺在QWL和工作绩效之间存在部分中介作用。为了强化结果，员工承诺的中介作用也在QWL的每个维度与工作绩效之间进行了测试。QWL的所有因素也支持部分中介效应。实际意义研究结果可能有助于决策者理解、制定和实施适当的政策，以提高教师的工作生活质量和承诺。这可能有助于在该行业危机中进一步提高教师的整体表现。独创性/价值该研究强调了员工承诺在技术教育部门的QWL和教师工作表现之间的中介作用，这是同类研究之一，可能尚未探索。此外，本研究还提出了提高教师工作生活质量和工作绩效的措施。
