Abstract

This study examines the effects of four types of employee support on a sample of 231 junior accountants' organisational commitment, job involvement and intention to quit. The four types of support include organisational, supervisory, psycho‐social and career development support. Results of path analysis suggest that only organisational support and psycho‐social support influence organisational commitment which, in turn, increases job involvement and reduces intention to quit.
