The research was aimed at achieving the following objectives: determine job satisfaction levels of employees in the selected organisations; determine the extent to which employees in these organisations engaged in OCB; analyse the correlation between job satisfaction and OCB and recommend job satisfaction measures that can be used by these organisations to enhance OCB. The study adopted the quantitative research design. Questionnaires were administered to 1,202 employees from 5 selected organisations. Employees in the organisations surveyed experienced intrinsic job satisfaction more than extrinsic job satisfaction. Furthermore, employees in these organisations engaged more in altruism than other dimensions of OCB. Substantive correlation between job satisfaction and OCB was also found. Key words: evaluation; job satisfaction; organisational citizenship behaviour; volatile; economic environment.
