Abstract: The main objective of this paper is to examine the relationship between perceived organizational support (POS) and organizational commitment of school teachers in the city of Chandigarh and Panchkula. The paper is driven theoretically by the social exchange theory, the concept of perceived organizational support (POS) which is the commitment of the organization to the employee, the norm of reciprocity, the organizational support theory as well as the other relevant literature in the human resource management and organizational behaviour research. The results of the study are in favor of the reciprocity norm. This paper contributes to the limited body of knowledge about the psychological processes underlying the formation of organizational commitment through the perspectives of the social exchange theory and the organizational support theory.
