Interaction of Glass Ceiling and Workplace Commitment
Authors/Creators
Description
As the glass ceiling (GC) is used to label barriers that stop women invisibly from mounting into higher positions, this study concentrates on whether the glass ceiling affects their commitment. This study investigates the relationship between female executives' commitment and the glass ceiling sustained in the organizational structure. A total of 176 female participants were randomly selected from different private banks who completed a structured questionnaire. Results of Cronbach's alpha, KMO, and Bartlett's Test were found acceptable for factor analysis. Management perception and prejudice, corporate policies and practices, general attitudinal problems and stereotyping, and work-life conflict are labeled as GC factors. Results of Pearson Correlation Statistics revealed that the connection between the GC factors and the commitment of female employees is associated negatively, indicating that the presence of glass ceiling hampers their commitment.
