Abstract

This study examined job involvement and organizational commitment as interactive predictors of absenteeism and tardiness behaviors. Personnel records and questionnaires were used to collect tardiness and absence data for a subsample of 82 registered staff nurses out of a total sample of 228 nurses from a large Midwestern hospital. Results showed supportfor the hypothesis that individuals showing higher levels of job involvement and organizational commitment would exhibit less unexcused tardiness and absenteeism than those with lower levels of job involvement and organizational commitment. The implications and limitations of these findings are discussed.
