PERCEIVED ORGANISATIONAL JUSTICE, ORGANISATIONAL SUPPORT AND GROUP EFFICACY ON JOB INVOLVEMENT AMONG NONTEACHING STAFF IN PUBLIC AND PRIVATE UNIVERSITIES IN OGUN STATE NIGERIA

It is widely acknowledged that job involvement is a construct that has great potential to enhance employee performance. Despite efforts by various organisations to improve the level of job involvement of their employees in order to achieve organisational goal, many organisations are still battling with poor job involvement of their employees and this has become a major concern to researchers over the years and as the decline continues so does the search for solutions. In order to address the decline in the level of job involvement of non teaching staff in both public and private universities in Nigeria, this paper examines the predictive power of perceived organizational justice, organizational support and group efficacy on the criterion measure (job involvement). Results suggest that there was significant prediction of employee job involvement, which shows that Organizational Justice, Group efficacy and organizational Support are good predictors of job involvement but organizational justice is a more potent contributor to employee job involvement, followed by group Efficacy and organizational support. Recommendation from these findings and suggestions for future research are addressed.
