A Study Of Factors Related To Perceived Organizational Support: A Special Reference To IT Sector

Abstract

This scientific investigation attempts to study the factors that impact perceived organizational support (POS) and have an influence on employees’ performance. POS is all about employee’s views regarding their contribution to the organization and the influence that various organizational factors have on them. The sample for the study included 120 employees of the IT sector to whom a self-designed questionnaire was sent through E mail for the purpose of data collection. The result of the study has been evaluated using relevant software and it clearly shows that some of the factors of POS have a positive relationship with employee’s performance while some have negative. This implies that the organization values contribution of the employees towards them. The study has implications for human resource professionals, managers and researchers.
