Abstract

Previous studies showed that the work quality of civil servants in Indonesia is among the lowest compared to other South East Asian countries. Existing literature suggests that individual commitment to organization and work spirituality may contribute to an individual’s quality of work. This study aimed to examine this relationship by investigating the relationship between work spirituality and organizational commitment of civil servants in Banda Aceh. A total of 323 civil servants in Banda Aceh were participated in the study and were administered two scales: The Spirit at Work Scale (SAWS) and Organizational Commitment Questionnaire (OCQ) to measure their work spirituality and organizational commitment, respectively. The result found that work spirituality played a significant contribution in increasing organizational commitment of civil servants in Banda Aceh.
