TITLE Key Drivers of Employee Retention: A Study of Attitude, Managerial Reliability, and Organizational Commitment at ITL Pipes
ABSTRACT Employee retention has emerged as a critical challenge for manufacturing organizations due to increasing competition, skill shortages, and demanding work environments. In industrial sectors such as pipe manufacturing, employee attitude and trust in management play a vital role in sustaining organizational commitment and reducing turnover. The present study examines the influence of employee attitude and managerial reliability on organizational commitment and employee retention at ITL Pipes. Primary data were collected from 180 employees using a structured questionnaire. Statistical techniques such as descriptive analysis, reliability testing, Chi-square analysis, and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) using SPSS and AMOS were employed. The findings reveal that employee attitude and reliability of managers significantly influence organizational commitment, which in turn predicts employee retention. The study offers practical implications for human resource policies and managerial practices in manufacturing organizations.
