Person-organisation fit, person-job fit and organisational citizenship behaviour: An examination of the mediating role of job satisfaction

Year: 2021

Type: article

Abstract: This study explores the simultaneous impact of person-organisation (P-O) fit and person-job (P-J) fit on various dimensions of OCB. The study also investigates the mediating role of job satisfaction in the relationship between these two types of fit and OCB dimensions. The results confirmed that job satisfaction acts as a mediator in the relationship between P-O fit, P-J fit and OCB dimensions. As expected, P-O fit had a stronger impact on OCB dimensions than P-J fit. However, the results with respect to the impact of P-O and P-J fit on job satisfaction did not confirm the hypothesised direction.
