Abstract

This study examined the effect of organizational climate on employee commitment proxy by teamwork and decision making in deposit money banks in Rivers State. The study employed a survey research design, utilizing a structured five-point Likert scale questionnaire to collect data from staff at five Domestic Systemically Important Banks (DSIBs) in Rivers State, encompassing a total workforce of 303 employees as obtained from the banks’ human resource departments. Adopting a census survey approach, the study included the entire population as the sample. Data were coded and analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) to assess both the measurement and structural models. The findings revealed a statistically significant positive effect of both teamwork and decision-making on employee commitment and performance. Based on these results, the study recommends that banks enhance teamwork through team-building activities and foster a collaborative environment. Additionally, banks should encourage participative decision-making practices to involve employees in decision processes, thereby increasing their commitment and productivity. These measures are expected to create a more positive organizational climate and improve overall performance of the banks.
