Abstract: Understanding the impact of diversity management on employees' organisational commitment offers organisational leaders' insights into how their activities impact employee satisfaction and turnover. How diversity management is coordinated through human resource performance management can also influence employee perception of organisational support, which in turn effects employee commitment. The research questions in the study are: To what degree does diversity management impact organisational commitment and to what degree does human resource management performance impact organisational commitment. Over 400 employees working in eighty-seven different companies in the services sector in Kuwait completed questionnaires with 38 questions on diversity management, human resource management performance, and organisational commitment. The findings suggest that diversity management has an indirect effect on organisational commitment and human resource management performance mediates this relationship. This study provides a significant contribution to existing literature on diversity management and organisational commitment.
