ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of motivation on organizational commitment and job satisfaction among fire officers in Busan, Korea. Motivation was found to have a significantly high positive effect on their organizational commitment, which was also found to have a significantly positive effect on their job satisfaction. Fire officers are typically under restrictions in adopting new methods for solving their tasks using their personal creativity. In addition, motivating fire officers is more difficult than general administrative officers because promotion is determined in a strict hierarchical order in the fire-fighting organizations. Thus, the change in the work environment and reasonable compensation for their performance should play important roles in enhancing their organizational commitment and job satisfaction in the fire-fighting organizations with a relatively stiff organizational structure.
