Abstract

This survey examined job-related tension and organizational frustration as predictors of job involvement among bankers in Makurdi metropolis. Using convenience sampling approach, data was collected from 112 bankers across commercial banks. Job-Related Tension Scale (JTS), Organizational Frustration Scale (OFS) and Job Involvement Scale (JIS) were used for data collection. Three hypotheses were tested and job-related tension was found to be a significant predictor of job involvement. Organizational frustration did not predict job involvement significantly. Thirdly, there was a significant interactive effect of job-related tension and organizational frustration on job involvement among bankers. Based on these findings, it was recommended that management of Nigeria commercial banks should create a tension free environment so as to enhance job involvement among their employees.
