Abstract
Although organizational commitment has been discussed frequently in organizational psychology for almost four
decades, few studies have involved software professionals. A study in India reveals that HRM practices such as
employee‐friendly work environment, career development, developmentoriented appraisal, and comprehensive
training show a significant positive relationship with organizational commitment. The study's results emphasize
the role of such HRD variables as inculcating and enhancing organizational commitment, and suggest that HRD
practitioners and researchers should further develop commitment‐oriented organization policies.
