Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the associations between OCB and firm performance of firms along with study of some prominent antecedents of OCB.

A self-report questionnaire containing standard measures of the key variables was completed by a sample of 205 employees. Multiple regression analysis was conducted to test the proposed hypotheses.
