Abstract
The overall objectives of the current study were to study the extent to which the quality of work life affects organization commitment and work effectiveness and the extent to which the level of organization commitment has an influence on work effectiveness. 804 Registered Nurses of Community Hospitals under Public Health Office in Thailand responded a five-rating scale questionnaire of Likert's type, of which the data was analyzed for descriptive statistics. Pearson's correlation and multiple regression analysis were employed in the process of hypothesis testing with the significant level set at 0.05. The results showed that social relevance, work and total life space, safe and healthy working conditions, adequacy of resources, constitutionalism in the work organization, and opportunity for continued growth and security have a significant and positive effect on a strong belief in and acceptance of the organization’s goals and value, a willingness to exert considerable effort on behalf of the organization, a strong desire to maintain membership in the organization, and work efficiency. However, a strong belief in and acceptance of the organization’s goals and value and a strong desire to maintain membership in the organization have a significant and positive effect on work efficiency.
