ABSTRACT
This study investigated the effect of family responsibility on work commitment
of professional women workers. Two hundred (200) women employees
engaged in the financial institutions were used as participants. One hundred
and twenty (120) were unmarried while eighty (80) were married. Among the
married ones, thirty-eight (38) had children while forty-two (42) had no child.
The participants were selected using stratified random sampling method. The
instrument that was used is the Organizational Commitment Questionnaire
(OCQ) developed by (Mowday, Porter and Steers, 1979). The Chi Sq statistics
was used for data analysis. Three hypotheses were postulated and they are
H0:1) – increase in family roles would not significantly affect work
commitment of women, (H0:2) – age of the youngest child would not
significantly affect a mother’s commitment to work and (H):3) – the number of
children a woman has would not significantly affect her work commitment.
Result of the X2 analysis indicated that none of the hypotheses was significant
(P>0.05). The findings and their implications were discussed and the
limitations of the study were stated and suggestions made for further research
