Commitment in the workplace has been an enduring concern of managers at all levels. On the basis of extensive research and practical work with corporations, Stephen L. Fink establishes a sound basis (Commitment Diagnostic Instrument) for diagnosing essential characteristics of employee commitment and, importantly, offers practical guidance for remedying situations in which commitment levels constitute problems. Fink examines the differing experiences of corporations with dissimilar personnel approaches. His analysis involves consideration of common, but highly relevant, factors including age, length of service, and educational level. Types of commitments are differentiated, for example, commitment to co-workers is distinguished from commitment to one's specific performance. Managers are guided on the approaches conducive to establish, monitor, and strengthen commitment as a means to a qualitatively better and more productive workplace.

A high level of employee commitment holds particular value for organizations owing to its impact on organizational effectiveness and employee well-being. This Handbook provides an up-to-date review of theory and research pertaining to employee commitment in the workplace, outlining its value for both employers and employees and identifying key factors in its development, maintenance or decline.Including chapters from leading theorists and researchers from around the world, this Handbook presents cumulated and cutting-edge research exploring what commitment is, the different forms it can take, and how it is distinct from related concepts such as employee engagement, work motivation, embeddedness, the psychological contract, and organizational identification. Examining topics such as high-commitment work systems, work attitudes and motivation, the Handbook provides integration with related literatures. Internationally applicable, sections also discuss the implications of culture differences for commitment and present the latest developments in research methods and analytic techniques that can be used to advance our understanding of commitment.Comprehensive and engaging, the Handbook of Employee Commitment is essential reading for commitment scholars and researchers interested in the latest developments in the field as well as for international scholars who will benefit from its guidance on how to approach research in unique cultures. It will also prove of prime interest to managers and management consultants with its wealth of suggestions to guide evidence-based practice.

Using a case study approach, this article explores the implications for employees and unions of the introduction of a high commitment management (HCM) model to two Australian workplaces; one a brownfield site, the other a greenfield site. The article assesses the impact of HCM on employees using a combination of qualitative and quantitative methods. Its central argument is structured around four themes. The first relates to the extent and type of the changes introduced. The article briefly overviews the features of the new HCM system at the greenfield site and contrasts them with the traditional industrial relations (IR) extant at the brownfield site. The second theme examines the dangers of the new system for employees and unions at both sites. The third theme analyses the choices available to employees at each workplace and argues that only limited choice is available. The fourth theme considers the opportunities for, and impediments to, employee voice being heard in both the old and new systems. The article concludes with an evaluation of the costs and benefits of the new system for all employees and argues that in order to fully appreciate the implications of HCM, an integration of traditional IR concerns with human resource management (HRM) analysis is essential.
