Abstract

The study aimed to examine the influence of ethical leadership and employee treatment on the employees' organizational commitment. To deepen the concept of the study, literatures were reviewed. The study applied descriptive assessment and a correlation research design. The study population consisted of all employees of the institution where the study was conducted. To gather the data, validated research questionnaires were utilized. To analyze the data, inferential statistics were used. The study found no correlation between ethical leadership and organizational commitment, as well as between employee treatment and organizational commitment. Therefore, the hypothesis is rejected. The study recommends further study to include more variables that consider the specific context of the institution.
