Job Descriptions as Predictors of Job Involvement: Empirical Evidence from Civil Servants in Enugu State
Journal Title: International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Invention - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 6
Abstract
This present study investigated job descriptions as predictors of job involvement among employees. One hundred and thirty-four participants comprising 64 male and 70 female civil servants in Enugu between the age of 28 to 49 years (M = 39.52; SD = 6.29) were sampled using purposive sample technique. Job Description Index (JDI) and Job Involvement Scale (JIS) were used in data collection. A correlational survey design was adopted while multiple regression statistics was employed in testing the hypotheses, which stated that; job descriptions jointly and independently will not significantly predict job involvement. The results revealed that hypotheses were accepted because job descriptions did not significantly predict job involvement of employees. It was concluded that job descriptions’ non-significant prediction of job involvement indicated that there are other factors apart from these job facets that are keeping the workers to their jobs.
