✦ Synopsis

This study investigates the influence of job satisfaction, job autonomy, job variety, task identity, feedback, and employee demographics on organizational commitment among self-initiated expatriates (SIEs) in Saudi Arabia. An examination of a sample of 481 SIEs reveals that only job satisfaction and job variety are related to organizational commitment. The rest-job characteristics and demographics-are unrelated to organizational commitment. The findings and the anomalies of the findings are discussed.
