The study explored the implications of effective utilization of work flexibility on employeecommitment at Federal Teaching Hospital, Abakaliki.. Correlation design was employed while structured questionnaire designed with open-ended questions were administered to the sample drawn from the population of the study. Data collected were analyzed with Pearson Correlation Coefficient via 0.20. The findings showed that flexi-time has significant positive correlation with employee affective commitment ( r=0.72, p<0.01, n=350), that compressed work week has significant positive correlation with employee continuance commitment (r=0.52, p<0.01, n=350) and job sharing has significant positive relationship with employee normative commitment ( r=0.22, p<0.01, n=350) at federal Teaching Hospital, Abakaliki. The implication of the findings is that as this organization continues to utilize work flexibility schedule, such operational policy-framework will reinvigorate employee psychological commitment that will improve their performance as it enables them to balance both family and work requirement-needs. The study therefore, recommended that organizations particularly Federal Teaching Hospital should always explore the opportunity of co-opting and integrating an effective work flexibility schedule among their workers to generate the desired resilient and commitment to work
