HO, Ming-Tien 07 July 2002 (has links)
In recent years, there is a significant change in consumers¡¦ cognition and values owing to the transition of financial conditions, and a sort of more diversified financial service is demanded to cater for their needs. Since the openness of financial market in 1990, our human resources of professional intellect never reach the anticipated level of advance because no appropriate regulation on the running tactics of financial institutions is made, besides the want of foresighted projects on financial market, ethical climate in financial institutions, definite and concrete reconstruction of organizational commitment. As a result, financial proprietors surged into the market upon the openness, forming a superficial feature of flourishing development; on the other hand, the deteriorating competition behind the prosperity causes trust-granting quality to go down and consequently the rate and amount of overdue loan to go higher and higher. In the meanwhile, the opportunities of nationally economic development get corrupted. Many researches prove the ethical climate and organizational commitment do have effect on organizational citizenship. This research is aimed to find out the degree the trust-granting staff¡¦s ethical climate and organizational commitment influence the organizational citizenship by studying the personal characteristics and position properties. It also expects follow-up researches will further probe into the difference and correlation between the ethical climate and organizational commitment of the trust-granting staff with the final say in order to build more positive and active ones, so as to enhance a more positive trust¡Vgranting attitude and behavior. Taking trust-granting staff of financial institutions in Kaohsiung-Pingtung area as subjects, this research gave out 125 copies of questionnaire and recovered 120 effective. With fidelity analysis, descriptive analysis, factor analysis, single factor variance analysis, Pierson correlation analysis, and typical correlation analysis, we can conclude as follows. 1. Subjects¡¦ research variances are: (1) Ethical climate: legislative orientation, care orientation, and independent judgment. (2) Organizational commitment: affectional commitment, continuous commitment, and moral commitment. (3) Organizational citizenship: the manifestation of both cognition or attitude in terms of sticking to own duty and organizational public welfare lies above the medium or high levels. 2. Based on personal characteristics or position properties, the subjects who have highest manifestation in their cognition and attitude in each dimension are: (1) Legislative orientation: female, 40~49 years old, single, under junior college, incumbent clerk. (2) Care orientation: male, over 50 yeas old, married, above university, director. (3) Independent judgment: male, over 50 years old, married, under junior college, incumbent clerk. (4) Affectional commitment: male, over 50 years old, married, above university, director. (5) Continuous commitment: male, 30~39 years old, married, over university, former director. (6) Moral commitment: female, over 50 years old, married, under junior college, director. (7) Sticking to own duty: female, over 50 years old, married, under junior college, director. (8) Organizational public welfare: female, over 50 years old, married, under junior college, director. 3. The research variances that have apparent correlation: (1) legislative orientation: care orientation, affectioal commitment (2) Care orientation: independent judgment, affectional commitment, moral commitment.

Chuan-Yuan, Huang 18 July 2002 (has links)
Presently, the competitions between enterprises and cooperation are very intense. Being able to ensure and exploit human resources is one of the main promises to success. However, the question of how to ensure human resources is also one of the hardest problems faced by cooperation. Whether or not the employees have demonstrated all their abilities, or whether the separation is rising. These are all questions that the manager will have to confront. A high separation is a lost of the company. Document research showed that employees who have higher organizational commitment have a lower tendency to resign. This research discussed the variables that affected organizational commitment. It surveyed Chinese and Taiwanese employees in Taiwanese-owned companies in Guang-Dong Province. Using promotional justice, salary justice, and performance evaluation (three branches: result evaluation, award evaluation, and improvement evaluation) as independent variables to regression analysis Taiwanese business¡¦s performance management and its effects on Chinese employees¡¦ organizational commitment. Most of the specialists of organizational behavior put personal values and personal character as one of the variables that affect organizational commitment. Thus, this research set personal values and personal character as the adjusting factors.

government reengineering on staff¡¦s job satisfaction, organization commitment, job involvement and their intention to quit are lack of related-research

Kuo, Shuen-Cherng 22 July 2002 (has links)
While the scale of an organization has been huge and runs for ages, it is not merely the bureaucracy we have to consider but to properly adjust the main structure of the organization that is adverse to boost up the competitiveness. What Taiwan urgently requires is to enhance the nation¡¦s competitiveness; nevertheless, the fundamentals of four-rank government are necessary to make an adjustment. What is more, they are required to alter and simplify the great overlapping in terms of provincial and central government¡¦s human resource, cost, controlled land and numbers of population. The reasons that influence the success and failure of the government reengineering might be sophisticated; however, the key element is undoubtedly the employees¡¦ support and cooperation. In Taiwan, the researches with regard to the government reengineering are mostly concentrated on the domain of system; as to the impacts of government reengineering on staff¡¦s job satisfaction, organization commitment, job involvement and their intention to quit are lack of related-research. Based on the above stated incentives, and with a view to realizing the influences on reengineering government as to staff¡¦s job satisfaction, organization commitment, job involvement and their intention to quit, this research is attempted to study the staff attitude after simplifying the provincial structure and come up with suggestions as guides on formulating human resource¡¦s strategies when carrying out government reengineering by central government organizations. The suggestions that propose in this research are as follows: communicating with the staff by holding the colloquiums frequently; conducting second-job-skill-training seminars based on individual¡¦s needs; appropriately granting authority to the staff to increase their job satisfaction, organization commitment, job involvement as well as decrease job insecurity and their intention to quit.

Horng, Li-Wen 05 August 2003 (has links)
In recent years, the re-distribution of medical resources conducted by the government in general renders physicians to be anxious about the stability and fairness of their income. The worries are even aggravated by the policies such as ¡§secret in payment¡¨ or ¡§personalized payment¡¨ that are currently preceded by the hospitals. Since the as mentioned worries may affect physicians¡¦ attitudes toward their patients, factors affecting physicians¡¦ satisfaction in their income based on the stand point of ¡§salary justice¡¨ are thus important and will be the focus of the present research. Meanwhile, the influences of ¡§total budget system¡¨ on ¡§salary justice¡¨ and ¡§salary satisfaction¡¨ are also studied. The overall consequences to the physicians ¡§work attitude¡¨ are finally evaluated and analyzed in the present study. The research was conducted by distributing 319 questionnaires to the physicians belonging to eight hospitals in the middle area of Taiwan. Among these distributed questionnaires, 108 of them were retrieved. The retrieval rate is thus calculated as 33.9%. The results are presented as follows: 1.Gender, salary and position do not possess any influence on ¡§salary satisfaction¡¨ and ¡§working attitude¡¨. 2.A negative correlation is observed between ¡§age¡¨ and ¡§salary justice¡¨. This implies the elders demand higher base in their salary. 3.The more open in salary information and communications, the better in ¡§salary satisfaction¡¨. 4.The ¡§structure of income¡¨ should be consistent with one¡¦s recognition on the source of his or her salary. Together with a fair distribution in overall benefits would help in motivating positive work attitude. 5.More understanding in the method of benefit distribution as proposed in the ¡§total budget system¡¨ could lead to more negative attitude in working. 6.The ¡§total budget system¡¨ is still in the embryonic stage. No effects on ¡§salary justice¡¨ and ¡§salary satisfaction¡¨ have been observed yet. 7.A physician would possess a stronger commitment in job fair and team involvement when he/she feels satisfactory with the payment.
