Abstract
Employees commitment on performance has over the years become a very crucial part of Human Resource Management in organizations and its benefits all over the world cannot be over emphasized. The willingness of employees to work determines whether the organization will achieve the stated objectives or not. It involves getting constant feedback on how the employees are working, the employees having the necessary skills and competencies such as communication skills, interpersonal skills, professional skills and ability to scan the surrounding environment to give the organization competitive advantage as well as having clearly defined responsibilities. The main objective the study focused on finding out the relationship between employees commitment and performance of Technical Training Institutes in Meru County. This study was carried out in the four technical training institutes in Meru County. All the management employees of the technical training institutes were used as the respondents. There were 74 respondents’ management staff from the 4 technical training institutes in Meru County. It was found that employees do not receive constant feedback on their areas of improvement from their supervisors, there was lack of career planning in most institutions. This is a common problem experienced by majority of the people appointed to positions and are not committed to the work, since their career path is not clear while majority of the teachers had furthered their studies which positively improved their performances. The study recommends that technical institutes’ management should conduct seminars and training to the members of staff in order to enhance employees’ commitment and improve their organization performance.
