Abstract

This study examines the effect of work environment on employees’ commitment in agro-based industries in Cross River State, Nigeria. The study drew participants from two major agro industries in the state. One thousand, one hundred and ninety four (1194) respondents were purposively selected for the study. Information was elucidated from participants using four point Likert scale questionnaire. Data obtained was analyzed using Pearson product moment correlation (r). Findings revealed that work environment such as consistent communication flow, manageable workload, availability of electricity, and work place that is free from known dangers are positively associated with employees’ commitment, and hence performance. The study recommended among others that management of agro-based industries in Cross River State should establish and promote good work environments in their organizations so as to boost employees’ commitment, wellbeing and overall performance and productivity.
