Organizational Commitment Scale (Meyer and Allen, 1990), and Job
Performance Scale (Suliman, 2001). Statistical analyses used for the study

monthly salary were found to be related to work values. Age, marital status,
and academic qualification were found to be related to organizational
commitment. Finally, working experience were related to job performance.
