Abstract: For decades, both researchers and management specialists along with human resources specialists have tried to explain, understand, measure and evaluate the consequences of the main organizational phenomena considered to be responsible for the employee performance, for their intention to stay within or to leave the organization, as well as for other phenomena with notable implications on the performance of organizations, such as absenteeism and scrap’s reduction. Organizational commitment is one of the most important organizational behaviors that leads to a better employee performance and a decrease intention to leave the organization, to reduce absenteeism and to reduce the negative behaviors manifested by employees in relation to the organization. Also, the existence of a high organizational commitment leads to the creation of an innovative working environment. Currently, organizational commitment is one of the most important topics, analyzed both in the academic literature and among practitioners. This is the reason why, in this paper, we aimed to analyze the evolution and structure of the scientific papers that approached this subject, using the method of bibliometric analysis. The data needed in order to perform this analysis was extracted from both the Web of Science and Scopus. Based on the collected data, the evolution in time of the number of publications that approached this subject was analyzed, also the names of the authors who with the most contributions in approaching this subject, the countries where these publications were present, the countries of origin of the authors between which most collaboration relations were established. Also, the intensity of the links between the most used keywords in relation to the analyzed keyword was analyzed, as well as the intensity of the links between the main keywords related to the term organizational commitment.
