  • If the direct effect is smaller than the total effect, it is evident that the organizational commitment variable is a mediating variable or it can be seen by the probability value, where if the P-value is < 0.05, the organizational commitment variable can mediate the influence between the quality of work life and organizational citizenship behavior

  • The results show that the influence between the quality of work life on organizational citizenship behavior results in a path coefficient value of 0.342 and a T-statistic value of 3.945 (t > 1.96) with a significance level of p-value = 0.000 ( p-value < 0.05)

Summary

Introduction

Organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) is a unique aspect of individual activity at work. Tambe and Shanker (2014) explained that OCB is the behavior of employees at a time which shows certain behaviors that go beyond the employee's duties. In line with Saepudin and Djati (2019) explained that OCB is the freedom of individual behavior, which is indirectly or explicitly recognized by the reward system, and contributes to the effectiveness and efficiency of organizational functions This statement shows that OCB is not included in the job requirements or formal job descriptions of employees so that if it is not displayed it will not be sanctioned by the company but as a whole it can affect the effectiveness of the organization, so it explains that the company will be successful if its employees do do it. The statement regarding the importance of organizational citizenship behavior was put forward by the research of Traiyotee, Taeporamaysamai and Saksamrit (2019), OCB behavior is very important for employees in the company because having extra role behavior means that employees can serve and be dedicated to work, which projects a positive effect on the success and welfare of the company. This is reinforced by a statement of Robbins & Judge (2016) which states that companies that have employees with a high level of organizational citizenship behavior will show better performance and contribute more to the achievement of organizational goals
