Abstract
This study was conducted in Saudi Arabia to compare expatriates to Saudis in terms of their beliefs and work involvement. Furthermore, the study aims to contrast four measures related to work involvement and investigate expatriates’ and citizens’ commitment to work. A total of 990 surveys were distributed. The final sample included 481 responses, a response rate of 48.6%. It was found that Saudi managers scored higher than expatriates on individualism, while expatriates showed higher commitment than Saudis toward IWE and Belief About Work measures. Likewise, the results show that there were strong correlations among Islamic Work Ethic (IWE), Individualism, and Belief About Work and Consumer Ethics scales. Theoretical and cultural underpinnings are presented.
