Description

INTRODUCTION Work attitudes are a widely studied human resource variable and continues to attract the attention of researchers because of the important practical implications it has for organisational activities and assigned roles in the workplace. Obviously, a vital human resource function of management in any organisation will be to foster positive attitudes that will lay the foundation for high performance. Negative attitudes lead to low levels of output and the tendency to avoid work, and sometimes the desire to quit (George & Jones, 1996). Positive attitudes toward work have the effect of making employees more willing to put in the extra effort to meet deadlines and improve the standard of performance. In health care delivery workplaces, negative attitudes affect doctor-patient relationship, compromise quality care and may result in inappropriate prescribing patterns (Melville, 1980). These lead to lower levels of patient satisfaction and decreased patient compliance with prescribed medication (Linn, Brook, Clark et al. 1985). The importance of examining work attitudes is particularly underscored by the fact that peoples' attitudes are very dynamic and the environment in which they operate is not static. Organisations, therefore, have to monitor employee attitudes to ensure organisational effectiveness.
