Authors : Zorgot Khadiddja . Abdelmadjid Bekai .

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the correlation between incentive systems and organizational commitment. To achieve this objective, a quantitative approach was adopted, utilizing a simple random sample of 48 employees from the Naftal gas liquefaction enterprise in Tiaret. Data were collected using the Incentive Systems Questionnaire (Radjem et al., 2019) and the Organizational Commitment Questionnaire (Mahi, 2016). The findings revealed that the employees experience low levels of both organizational commitment and satisfaction with the current incentive systems. Despite this, correlation analyses demonstrated a moderate positive relationship between financial incentives and organizational commitment, alongside a strong positive relationship between non-financial incentives and commitment. Additionally, moderate positive correlations were observed between organizational commitment and the dimensions of promotions, rewards, and incentive equity. Overall, the results confirm a statistically significant positive relationship between the various dimensions of incentive systems and the level of organizational commitment. These findings highlight the critical need to develop comprehensive incentive policies to enhance workplace loyalty and belonging within the organization.
