Abstract: The main objectives of this study were to compare Organisational Commitment for the employees in service and manufacturing public sector organisations, to see the association between subscales of organizational commitment and to compare these dimensions of organizational commitment vis-Ã -vis different psycho-demographic factors of the employees. The scope of the study was Public Sector Organisations belonging to Punjab, Haryana and Chandigarh. The sample comprised of 225 respondents drawn from eight public sector organisations, 2 each from Engineering, Textile, Banking and Insurance sectors, to represent the Manufacturing and Service Sector organizations adequately. Comparisons made on the basis of hierarchical levels and other psycho-demographic factors make the study comprehensive. The results revealed a very significant but weak positive correlation between three subscales of Organisational Commitment. Almost all other null hypotheses concerning level of Organisational Commitment vis-Ã -vis failed to be rejected unlike previous similar studies.
