Workplace Ostracism as a Determinant of Organizational Commitment among Teachers

Workplace ostracism is a pervasive issue that significantly affects the professional performance of teachers. This research, which explores the relationship between workplace ostracism and the fulfilment of organizational commitment among teachers of the Vaishali district, has important implications for organizational practices. The study’s sample comprised 100 Teachers from the Vaishali District. Data were collected during 2025 using the Workplace ostracism scale by Ferris to assess workplace ostracism and the Organizational commitment scale by Shah and Ansari to measure organizational commitment. The data were then analyzed using descriptive statistics, Pearson’s product-moment correlation, and simple linear regression (SLR) through SPSS. The findings revealed a significant negative correlation between workplace ostracism and organizational commitment and its dimensions, suggesting potential strategies for addressing it in organizational settings.
