Abstract

This study aimed to examine (1) the impact of perceived organizational support on organizational commitment among employees in the plastic film industry, (2) the effect of organizational commitment on job performance in the same employee group, and (3) the direct and indirect effects of perceived organizational support on job performance, with organizational commitment serving as a mediating variable. The study employed a quantitative research design and was conducted in a plastic film manufacturing company located in Chonburi Province, Thailand. The sample comprised 272 employees, ranging from assistant managers to operational staff. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and analyzed using descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), and structural equation modeling (SEM).

         The findings showed that perceived organizational support had a significant positive effect on organizational commitment (β = 0.846, p < 0.001). It also had both a direct effect (β = 0.592, p < 0.001) and an indirect effect (β = 0.304, p < 0.001) on job performance through organizational commitment, which acted as a mediating variable (β = 0.360, p < 0.01). These results indicated that enhancing employees’ perceptions of organizational support could strengthen their commitment to the organization, thereby improving job performance and supporting the competitiveness of Thailand’s plastic film industry.
