Abstract
Existing literature on organizational commitment and training suggest that there is a positive relationship between the two variables. However, most of the studies, are conducted in the domain of affective commitment. This study is designed to test the effect of single HR practice training and development on two dimensions of commitment (affective and normative) simultaneously in the mediation of perceived organizational support. The study adopted quantitative approach and data, were collected from nursing staff of public sector hospitals of Southern Punjab through questionnaire. The results indicated that positive relationship of training and development and both dimensions affective and normative commitment are mediated by perceived organizational support. This study proved that even with a single HR practice namely, training and development organizations, can gain the both form of commitment. The study has several implications for hospital management, if they want to provide the quality patient care then they first need to make their nursing staff committed to hospital.
